Later at the Last Supper, Jesus uses bread to represent his holy body and how he died for us for our salvation. Varieties of other manifestations of unleavened bread cross all continents and cultures including the following: (1) Jewish Matzo. (2) Mexican Tortilla (g) tnAian Naan (4) Arab and Greek Pita.

How can this simple wafer symbolize so much in receiving eternal life? When I consume the bread at church, it is a regular reminder of His presence in me. This presence is amplified as I think of Christ dying on the cross for us.

As I somberly reflect on Jesus who was God in the form of a rnan dying for us, I leave mass with an uplifted spirit of hope and optimism for the future.

Follou,ittg is the Bread of Life reflectiott bg Albert Higasli.

As Jesus talks about his body being the bread of life in John 6, I thought about how bread has been linked to man's sustenance for thousands of years. He says, "l am the bread of life" seven times in the Bible, which raised rny curiosity on the history of bread and what type of significance it played in daily life. Why bread?

Why not rice or potatoes?

While the world has change with advancements in transportation, automation, medicine and engineering, the making and consumption of bread hasn't changed.

It serves as the basic elennent of the family meal in nearly all cultures since the start of mankind. More importantly it serves as the body of Christ for billions of Catholics at the Eucharist every week. Bread in all its various forms, is the most widely consumed food in ihe world.

Recent scholars suggest humans started making bread at least 30,000 years ago. The Greek word for bread is 'psomi'which comes from the verb'psoo', which means to rub or grind. When we take the communion, the "host" is derived from unleavened flour, which is used to symbolically show how the Jews had to quickly leave Egypt at the Passover and could not wait for leavened bread to rise.

This year, the Church will celebrate Catechetical Sunday on September 16, 2A18. The 2018 theme will be "Enlisting Witnesses for Jesus Christ."

Those who the Community has designated to serve as catechists will be called forth to be commissioned for their ministry. Catechetical Sunday is a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the role that each person plays, by virtue of Baptism, in handing on the faith and being a witness to the Gospel. Catechetical Sunday is an opportunity for all to rededicate themselves to this mission as a community of faith.

We are living in a secularized society which continues to squeeze Christianity to the margins, or completely out of engagement with Jesus Christ and the Church.

We are losing baptized Catholics at an alarming rate. According to Pew Research, nearly one-infour Hispanic adults (24%\ are now former Catholics and most of them are "nones", a term used for people with no religious affiliation.

Many parents are saddened to report that their children are leaving the Church after preparing for and celebrating initiation sacraments, and after years of Catholic School or parish religion classes. Figures for Baptisms, Church weddings and weekly Mass attendance are down. Those who seltidentify as atheists or agnostics ("Nones") now make up roughly 23% of the U.S. adult population.

Adults, especially young adults, are more likely to say they are not religiously affiliated than in past generations. (Michael Lipka. A closer look at America's rapidly qrowinq religious 'nones'. , pew research center; 51512017). Also growing in numbers are those who are baptized, and in junior or senior high school, who are increasingly stopping to selfidentify as Christians and grouping themselves among the "Nones", At the same time, we are blessed with an incredibly

:ii:l

H RISY

generous cohort of faithful who are sacramentally graced to give Gospel witness in their homes, schools and workplace, if only they were invited, trained and supported in their outreach as missionary disciples. lt will take the whole Church's witness and engagement of the "Nones", inside and outside the walls of the church and across society, to reach out, accompany them, and share the joy of the gospelwith them.

Our 2018 and 2019 Catechetical Sunday and Leadership lnstitute themes are designed to address the phenomena of the "Nones" in two parts. During 2018, we will be researching some of the causes eroding faith and moving people to step away from life in Christ and his body, the Church. We will also showcase some of the many groups of missionary disciples already enlisted and engaged as witnesses for Jesus Christ. Hopefully many more will be able to learn about and join in their efforts.

During 2019, we will focus particularly on the steps needed to enable the faithful to claim their true roles as witnesses to Jesus Christ. ln imitation of Jesus' encounter with two disciples on the road to Emmaus (Luke 24:13-35), we will become more familiar with terms like "accompanying", "evangelizing" and "catechizing". We will learn how to assist folks in exploring the reasonableness of the Faith, having an "encounter" with Jesus, sharing in a deeper faith experience, and drawing out the meaning of those experiences for their lives. May the joy of our life in Christ be so remarkable that even the "Nones" are moved to ask what is the secret behind this joy and claim it for themselves.

Sincerely yours in Christ, Bishop Robert Barron, Chairman Committee of the Evangelization and Catechesls (USCCB,)

speak of our struggle with sorrow and darkness, and the ultimate ioy we have knowing "Since Christ is Lord of heaven and earth, / How can I keep

from singing?" The songwriter ioyfully sings out because of God's love; it's a doxology ofpraise.

Doxology, "a glorious utterance," is a prayer the Church uses to give God praise. We have countless examples in Scripture, such as the psalms, which by their nature give God rightful praise. The Sanctus acclamation is another example. Taken from Isaiah 6, it directs our focus to praising God for his power and might. On Christmas night we sing "Glory to God in the highest," a doxology from the angels. The eucharistic prayers end with a doxology to the Trinity showing how "the Holy Spirit who thus awakens the memory of the Church then inspires thanksgiving and praise (doxology)," Catechism of the Catholic Church,ll03.

We use doxologies to emphasize our worship of God, acknowledging his rightful praise. Doxologies are part of maior liturgical prayers such as the eucharistic prayers, the communion rite where we add a doxology following the Our Father. We also add doxologies to our personal prayers. The rosary contains a well-known doxology called the Gloria Pati, a prayer praising the eternal nature and love of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
