Communion Class
Let us remember the boys and girls from 2nd
class in St. Enda’s School
who make their commitments and promises this weekend as preparation for First
Holy Communion in May.
Reflection : The Gospel reading, St. John 11:1-45, opens up in front
of us a scene of unprecedented sorrow. Jesus receives the message from the
sisters of Lazarus who, when confronted with the gravity of his condition,
tried the only thing possible, they turned to the Lord of who it was said:
‘Everything He does is good, he makes the deaf hear and the dumb speak’
(Mk 7:37). It is the cry of each one of us who would like their loved ones to
live forever without ever leaving us. Upon Jesus’ arrival in Bethany there was a new apparently
inexplicable development in the story. First Mary, then her sister Marta and behind them all
the Jews who were united with them, converge on Jesus with the certainty that if there was a
response to their sorrow it would come from Him. They were not irreligious people who were
looking to Jesus for a solution. They profoundly accepted Israel’s faith in the final Resurrection
and so even this event was not ultimately inexplicable. In fact Martha said to the Lord ‘I know
that he will rise again at the resurrection on the last day’. Christ then performed the great
miracle of Lazarus’ resurrection. He announced, through the work of the Father, that He,
Himself, God made man, is the Resurrection and the Life. He is also the Lord of biological life.
His voice can reach those who, like Lazarus, have exceeded the threshold of four days from
their death and arrived at the point where bodily corruption commences. It was Martha and
Mary’s faith, even when confronted with Lazarus’ death that gave rise to the extraordinary
miracle worked by Christ. This is not only a consoling story narrated in the letters of the
Gospel, but it is also accessible to us today in the Church from the day of our Baptism until
when we are incorporated to Him by means of the Spirit that He has given to us. ‘If the Spirit of
him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will
give life to your mortal bodies also through his Spirit who dwells in you.’ (Rom 8:11)
