    MASS SCHEDULE

    This Sun-day, webegin theliturgicalseason ofOrdinaryTime. Form a n y

    Sundaysin thislection-

    ary cycle,our readingswill be taken

    om the Gospel of Luke. Occasionally, however, we will read from John's Gospel. This is true of today's Gospelading, which describes the beginning of Jesus' ministry and his first miracle.

    To situate today's reading within the context of John's Gospel, we note that John's report of this event followsesus' call of his first disciples. John tells us that Jesus and his disciples were invited to this wedding at Cana, as wasesus' mother, Mary. There is no parallel report of this miracle at Cana in the Synoptic Gospels.

    In the Church's liturgical history, the wedding feast of Cana is closely associated with the baptism of the Lord ande adoration of the infant Jesus by the Wise Men. In this context, the sign Jesus performs at the wedding feast is

    elebrated as an epiphany or a manifestation of Jesus' divinity.Yet awareness of Jesus' impending passion and death is ever present in John's Gospel. Even in this report of Jesus'

    rst sign, the language used anticipates Jesus' passion. When Jesus says to his mother that his hour has not yet come,e protests against her wishes in language that John will use again when reporting Jesus' Last Supper with his disci-es. When introducing the story of Jesus washing his disciples' feet, John writes that Jesus knew that his hour had

    ome. In John's Gospel, Jesus is very much in command and aware of all that is to happen to him.ere, as elsewhere in John's Gospel, Mary is not mentioned by name, but is referred to instead as the mother of Jesus.

    Mary is influential in Jesus' first sign. She will also be present at his Crucifixion, a witness to the final manifestationf his divinity.

    John's Gospel describes seven signs that indicate Jesus' identity to his disciples. John never speaks of these signs asiracles because their importance is not in the deed that Jesus performs but in what these deeds indicate about Jesus'entity. Here, as when John describes the other signs, the disciples are said to begin to believe, but no mention isade as to whether the other wedding guests are even aware of what has happened.Marriage and wedding feasts are metaphors used in Scripture to describe God's salvation and the Kingdom of God.

    ere at the beginning of Jesus' public ministry, John's Gospel seeks to establish that Jesus is going to re-interpret andulfill Yahweh's promise to Israel. Jesus establishes the New Covenant. A hint about what this New Covenant will beke is made evident in the deed that Jesus performs. Asked to do something to address the awkward situation that the

    bsence of wine at a wedding feast would create, Jesus' miracle produces vast quantities of winesix jars holdingirty gallons each are filled to overflowing with choice wine.This lavish response to a simple human need is a vision for us of the abundance of God's kingdom. It challenges usrespond generously when confronted with human need today. We respond as best we can, fully confident that God

    an transform our efforts, bringing the Kingdom of God to fulfillment among us.Retrieved from http://www.loyola.com/sundayconnection/

    A Haunted House

    By Kurt JensenCatholic News Service

    NEW YORK (CNS) -- By turns pornogra

    and scatological, "A Haunted House" (O

    Road) leaves no body function, sexual

    racial stereotype or form of human degradaunportrayed.

    Intended by director Michael Tiddes

    screenwriters Rick Alvarez and Marlon W

    ans (who stars) as a scattershot parody

    "found footage" horror films -- mostly foc

    on the "Paranormal Activity" series, wi

    couple of others tossed in -- the movie ins

    joylessly splashes around in a sewer's wort

    perverse images.

    There's also a foulmouthed, sexually promi

    ous priest (Cedric the Entertainer) on hanperform a grotesque form of exorc

    Wayans plays Malcolm Johnson, who has

    friend Kisha (Essence Atkins) move into

    new house only to find that she has brough

    evil spirit with her. Years ago, it seems, s

    made a deal with Satan in order to acqui

    pair of designer shoes.

    When the film isn't trying to extract laughs

    the stereotype of black people being terrifie

    haunted houses and a heavy use of racial s

    aimed both at black characters and at R(Marlene Forte), a Mexican maid, it has

    spirit interfering in every possible way

    Malcolm and Kisha's love life.

    Before he brings in the vicious caricature

    clergyman, Malcolm employs a lascivious

    man, Chip the Psychic (Nick Swardson), a

    coarse racist, Dan the Security Man (D

    Koechner). Tiresome toilet humor is thus i

    spersed with the supposed hilarity to be re

    from homosexual acts and bigotry.

    The film contains blasphemous humor, a sderous portrayal of Catholic clergy, exp

    sexual activity, some of it aberrant, uppe

    male and rear male nudity, drug use, vu

    sexual banter, frequent racial slurs and pe

    sive profane, rough and crude language.

    Catholic News Service classification is

    morally offensive. The Motion Picture Asso

    tion of America rating is R -- restricted. U

    17 requires accompanying parent or a

    guardian.
