Alleluia!
He Is Risen!
The Song of Invitation
The inspiration for this year’s
Easter candle began with a
chance parking lot encounter
with Fr. Jay last September. We
were just beginning the design
process and asked his thoughts.
Without hesitating he replied,
“The Invitation,” and the pieces
began to fall into place:
John Angotti’s song composed
for the Oratory was posted the
next day on the parish website.
The lyrics begin “Can you hear her
voice proclaiming from the tower
with angels singing, bringing news
of our salvation—behold her words
of invitation: I have seen the Lord
risen… Come and adore…” And
those images became the base of
the design.
Our Sacramental Arts ministry
was invited to a private hour of
adoration in the Oratory. At a
Mass in the Oratory shortly after
this Fr. Dan played the carol
“Jesus Christ the Appletree.”
The impact from the Tree of Life
Crucifix and imagery from the Song of Songs coupled with the last stanza of the
carol: “This fruit doth make my soul to thrive, It keeps my dying faith alive; Which makes
my soul in haste to be With Jesus Christ the Appletree” combine to become the top of
the design.
The invitation itself—the Word of God made flesh—completes the heart of the
composition.
It is our parish prayer intention “That the Lord Jesus would fill us with His love
to go farther out of ourselves to invite people home to church, and deeper into
prayer to bring every aspect of our lives to Him.”
If you haven’t yet been there, consider this YOUR INVITATION to visit the
Oratory of St. Mary Magdalene. In the silence of prayer it is easy to imagine as
Fr. Dan has said, “When God created the universe by His Word, He sang it.”
The Sacramental Arts ministry
The Lord is risen, as He said!
