10 blandade tankar på söndagen

Ny söndag, nya blandade tankar!

  1. Glad söndag kära läsare!

2. Det är heliga trefaldighets dag och i dagens högmässa ska jag ovanligt nog vara med som körsångare i en liten tillfällighetskör just för dagen eftersom vår kyrkomusiker avtackas.

3. Hon var kantor här redan när jag var konfirmand så det är en rätt lång tjänstgöring vi snacker om. Fint att få vara med på ett hörn och avtacka.

4. Igår grävde jag upp en massa rötter ur jorden. Och så har jag minst lika många kvar i plätten intill. Att gräva är verkligen ganska jobbigt. Ska bli spännande att se om armen hållit bra för detta. Det brukar vara svårt just med sådant där man tar i med full kraft.

5. Jag har också täljt vidare och fått in några till nästan klara skedar i kylskåpet (var annars?) så det kanske blir att jag hinner tälja två hinkar med ämnen under sommaren ändå.

6. Trefaldighetsdagen är dagen då man lyfter fram treenigheten med olika bibeltexter. Själva ordet trefaldighet är gammaldags och egentligen inte så teologiskt korrekt. Det är alltid en balans på knivseggen hur man uttrycker sig om treenigheten.

7. Bilden ovan är en väldigt märklig bild av treenigheten.

8. I tisdags var jag med arbetslaget på ”bibelns värld” i Ängelholm. De kunde gott förtjäna en egen bloggpost här men det var som alltid inspirerande att se hur andra arbetar med att sprida kunskap om bibeln.

9. Sommaren verkar vara här alltmer. Även om jag springer sent på kvällarna har det funnits tillräckligt med ljus för att springa i skogen.

10. Hur har du det just nu? Skriv en rad och berätta!

    What Do People Do?
    Many Catholics and some Protestants in Germany attend a church service on Corpus Christi. During the church service, special attention is paid to the sacrament’s blessing. The sacrament consists of bread or wafers that are believed to be Jesus’ body. In many places, the blessed sacrament is paraded outside during or after the service. This often results in a colorful celebration, especially in small villages.

    A procession by ships is held on the banks of the Rhine in Cologne. This is known as the Muelheimer Gottestracht and has been held every year since 1435. It is possible for passengers to ride on some of the ships in the procession.

    The custom’s origins are uncertain. However it is thought that a thief wanted to cross the river by boat but an unseen force prevented the boat from crossing the water. This was seen as God finding a way to punish the thief for his sins.

    Public Life
    Corpus Christi is a public holiday in the states of Baden-Wuerttemberg, Bavaria, Hesse, North Rhine-Westphalia, Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland and in some parts of Sachsen and Thuringia. Post offices, banks, stores and other businesses are closed in these areas. However, stores in some tourist areas may be open and stores at railway stations, airports and along highways are usually open.

    Public transport schedules may be normal, reduced or have no service depending on where one lives or wants to travel. Corpus Christi is not a public holiday in the rest of Germany.

    Background
    Corpus Christi became a Christian feast following the work of the nun known as Juliana of Liege, a city now in Belgium. She lived from 1193 until 1252 and repeatedly had visions of Jesus reminding her that there was no special feast day for the Blessed Sacrament. Many Christians celebrated the festival as far back as 1246.

    Then, in 1264, Pope Urban IV ordered that the Feast of the Blessed Sacrament should be celebrated on the Thursday after Trinity Sunday. Since Trinity Sunday is one week after Pentecost, Corpus Christi is 10 days after Pentecost and 60 days after Easter Sunday.

    Symbols
    The Eucharist is a celebration of the last meal Jesus shared with his disciples. Common symbols are the bread or wafers and the wine that are believed to be Jesus’ body and blood, the plate that holds the bread and the chalice that holds the wine. Other symbols are processional banners and cloths to protect the blessed sacrament (bread or wafers) as it is paraded outdoors.
