Kruh in vino
Mašnik pri spremenjenju ponavlja za Jezusom besede: To je moje telo... to je moja kri ... Kaj pomeni besedica »to«?
Pomeni kruh in vino, ki ju je dala narava_ in tudi delež, ki gaje dodal človek, ko je oral, sejal, okopaval, obrezoval, škropil, žel, trgal, mlel. Jezus je s svojim telesom in krvjo povezal vso naravo in celotnega človeka. Vse posvečuje in vsemu daje svojo božjo prisotnost.
Ljudje neradi dajemo, rajši jemljemo. Vzrok mnogih prepirov, vojn je v destvu, da nekateri hočejo jemati, česar jim drugi ne dajo. Jezus je drugačen. Daje in se daje. Postaja med nami kruh in ga ponuja, naj ga vzamemo, razlomimo in jemo.
Računsko vzeto, se Jezusu takšno dajanje ne izplača. Prav tako, kot se kruhu ne izplača, da se daje v jed. Zmanjka ga in ni ga več. V resnici pa se spremeni v drugačen, višji način bivanja. Spremeni se v življenjsko moč tistega, ki ga je jedel, da postane močan in zdrav, sposoben za delo in za ljubezen.
Tudi materi se, računsko vzeto, ne izplača biti mati, roditi in vzgajati otroke ter skrbeti za družino. Vsega tega ji nihče ne more poplačati. Toda njeno dajanje se spremeni v višjo obliko. Svetu je dala novega človeka, ki ga ne more dati nihče drugi kot le ona.
Podobno velja za očeta v družini, za učitelja v šoli, za delavca v tovarni, za zdravnika v bolnišnici, za duhovnika v župniji, skratka za vsakogar, ki se daje in mu pri tem ne gre predvsem za lastno korist. Računsko se to dajanje nikomur ne izplača, toda človeštvo od takih dajalcev živi. Kruh so za življenje sveta. Če jih bo malo, bo svet obubožal, če jih zmanjka, bo svet umrl.
procesija sv. resnjega telesa in krvi v
župniji sv. Gregorija Velikega, v nedeljo 19. junija 2011. Sveto mašo smo začeli že ob devetih zjutraj, pri maši je pel župnijski mešani pevski zbor. Po maši smo se zvrstili v procesijo s tremi oltarji, ki so jih pripravile članice Oltarnega društva in Ženske zveze. Lepo vreme je pomagalo, da smo lahko zbrano stopali v procesiji, ob pesmi in molitvi pri vsakem oltarju. Hvala vsem, ki so sodelovali tako pri maši kot tudi pri procesiji, vsem, ki so poskrbeli, da so bili oltarčki lepo okrašeni in pripravljeni.

Sunday's Readings
The Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ
First Reading Deuter. 8:2-3.14-16 Moses reminds the people that God is the one who has led them from slavery to freedom, and is the one who feeds them.
Second Reading 1 Corinthians 10:16-17 For St Paul, the Eucharist is a sign of the unity of the Church in Christ.
Gospel John 6:51-58
The body and blood of the Lord is the promise of eternal life.
"The bread that I shall give is my flesh, for the life of the world."
Illustration
Our digital age is having a profound effect on our culture, in ways we do not yet fully understand. Social networking, where we publish details and pictures of our lives on the internet, means that many of us live more publicly than ever before. Tweeting, where we send short messages from our mobile phones or computers about what we are doing at any particular time, is like distributing a diary to family, friends and others. When we blog, we share our thoughts on anything that takes our fancy and put them where anyone can see.
But what happens, in this electronic world, when people mess up? When there are embarrassing stories, photos or movies about them on the
internet? Or if stories appear about people that can harm them, whether they are true or not? The internet means people's past can be ever-present, they are not allowed to forget, not able to move on from where they were. No one yet knows how to tackle this new phenomenon.
Today we keep a memory: not one that will harm us or prevent our growth, but one that gives us life and promises eternal life. It is not a memory in the sense that it reminds us of long ago - it is rather a memory that makes the past present. The self-giving of Jesus in his life and ministry, at the Last Supper, on the cross and in his Holy Spirit is as present to us as it was to the first disciples.
Gospel Teaching
Today's feast celebrates the presence of Jesus in the mystery of the Eucharist, his presence among us under the appearance of bread and wine. How is it possible, nearly two thousand years after his death, that he is with us in this way? How do we know it is him?
When Jesus rose from the dead, he was the same as before, but different. He could still talk, eat, walk, teach and work miracles; but now he could appear to his disciples who were cowering in a locked room; now he would hand his mission on to them; now he would ascend to his Father, and give them his Holy Spirit. It is this risen Lord, unconstrained by the ordinary laws of nature, who is present in the Eucharist, to nourish and save his people.
If we do not immediately recognise him, we are in good company: Mary thought he was the gardener, early in the morning on the first day of the week; the disciples thought he was a ghost, until he ate a piece of grilled fish; the travellers on the road to Em-maus thought he was a well-informed stranger. It is here in this last story that we have a clue as to how we will recognise him. We study the prophe-
cies about him; we listen to his teachings about his death and resurrection; we ponder the Last Supper when he says, "this is my body" and "this is my blood"; and we hear his words today in St John's Gospel where he tells us we are to eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of Man - himself. Putting all this together, when we celebrate the Eucharist in his memory, we can recognise that he is truly with us, and we worship and rejoice. Our faith helps us to see what our eyes alone cannot.
Application
Knowing he is so close to us in the Eucharist gives a focus to our lives that is both here and now and in the future; both tangible, appearing as bread and wine, and intangible - this is no ordinary bread and wine but the flesh and blood of the Lord, the risen Lord. This is for us comfort, consolation, hope of eternal life, a constant call to be united with each other, a challenge to be worthy of his presence, an invitation to share with others the news that he is very close.
The God who saved the chosen people in the desert is still saving, through Jesus Christ his Son. The risen Lord who appeared to Saul and called him to be an apostle is making himself known to us in the sacrament of the Eucharist, and inviting us to go out in his name. As we ponder this great mystery today, we can realise how life-transforming it can be, and how it can transform our world. This is a memory we hold, we share and we celebrate -today, on this feast, and every time we gather around the altar in his name.
ureditev nase dvorane, da bo dostopna za invalide_
Na zadnjem župnijskem svetu smo se pogovarjali o tem, kaj vse je potrebno storit, da bodo šli naši načrti za preureditev dvorane, še posebej stranišč in dvigala, naprej. Prijavili se bomo na organizacijo »Trilium«, ki finančno pomaga pri takih preureditvah, prav tako še neka druga organizacija. Zaenkrat imamo odobreno s strani škfije, da gremo naprej z načrti in pripravami za začetek gradnje.
Potrebno bo pridobit še vsa dovoljenja in izbrat izvajalce. Prejšnji teden se je sestal tudi naš gradbeni odbor. Pregledali so načrte, prostor in se posvetovali, kakšen je najboljši način za izvedbo projekta.
Začeli bomo tudi sami z zbiranjem finančnih sredstev. Razmišljali smo, da bi bila ena od takih akcij Martinovanje. Odprli bomo poseben račun za to gradnjo. Za vsa darovana sredstva boste, kot običajno, dobili potrdila za income tax.
Upamo, da bi lahko pozimi že opravili nekatera dela, ostalo, pa če bo šlo vse po sreči, bi začeli naslednje leto spomladi.
