Reflection

Jesus told us to trust in the Holy Spirit to help guide our lives. How can you be open to what the Holy Spirit might say to you?

How do you experience the peace which Christ offers us?

80 South Market Street, San José, CA 95113-2321 ◆ 408-283-8100 ◆ www.stjosephcathedral.org ,

Jesus said to his disciples:

"Whoever loves me will keep my word, and my Father will love him,

and we will come to him and make our dwelling with him.

Whoever does not love me does not keep my words;

yet the word you hear is not mine but that of the Father who sent me.

"I have told you this while I am with you.

The Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name,

will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you.

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you.

Not as the world gives do I give it to you.

Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid.

You heard me tell you, 'I am going away and I will come back to you.'

If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father;

for the Father is greater than I.

And now I have told you this before it happens,

so that when it happens you may believe."

John 14:23-29

Sixth Sunday of Easter

This portion of John's Gospel comes near

the end of the first of four chapters that

make up Jesus' long farewell discourse at

the Last Supper. This section of chapter 14 actually

sums up the themes of the opening of the discourse: the

Christian's life is not shaped by Jesus' absence but by

God's abiding presence; God's presence overcomes anx-

iety about God's absence; and the present holds in it the

seeds of a fresh future shaped by love, not fear.

These verses also contain a glimpse of some of the other

themes of the farewell discourse: Jesus' relationship

with the Father and the disciples' relationship to Jesus

connect the disciples to the Father as well. Jesus promis-

es to send an Advocate or intercessor who will remind

the disciples of everything that Jesus taught them and

bring them peace.

Jesus is preparing his disciples in advance for his ab-

sence so that they will continue to believe in him and

not feel all alone after his return to the Father. After the

initial excitement of his Easter appearances, Jesus will

remain with his followers in a very different way

throughout the centuries.

As our celebration of the Easter season is coming to an

end, the liturgy reminds us that Jesus remains with us

through the Holy Spirit, who teaches us everything we

need to know, reminds us of all that Jesus taught, and

brings us peace. Loyola Press

S aint of the Week Achilleus and Nereus, Martyrs c. First Century As with many of the early martyrs, little is known with certainty about these two saints

and many of the accounts are conflicting. What is not disputed is the site of their graves, the catacomb of Flavia Domitilla in Rome. But, with that as a starting point, we can surmise the most likely history of their martyrdom. Persecution of Christians occurred over much of the first three centuries of the Church; howev-er none of the early harassment matched that which began with the ascension of Trajan to Em-peror in 98 A.D. An elite unit assigned to the emperor was charged with hunting down Chris-tians and killing those who would not apostatize. Achilleus and Nereus were members of this unit.While it is not known how long Achilleus and Nereus participated in this persecution, it is believed that, witnessing the strong faith of those who suffered martyrdom at their hands, these two were converted to Christianity and resigned their commissions. As had their victims, Achilleus and Nereus refused to offer sacrifices to the pagan gods which would have spared their lives. They, along with Lady Flavia, who remained a Christian virgin, were banished to the island of Pontia and later executed in about 100 A.D. Their bodies were recovered and placed in the catacomb of Domitilla where many of their victims had been buried. Pope Damasus (366-384 A.D.) was extremely interested in the history and tombs of the martyrs of the early Church and had an epitaph inscribed near the tombs of these two soldiers which praised these two praetorian soldiers who volunteered for military service and were carrying on their “cruel” du-ty, but suddenly laid aside their madness, “cast down shields, helmets, and bloodstained weapons,” were converted, and “bear with the triumph of Christ, they were put to death with the sword.” Achilleus and Nereus’ message today: While it is never easy to stand up for what is right in the face of strong opposi-tion, and few of us would face death for our position, we must not back down when we know that our view is correct.
