TESTIGOS
Hoy, la fiesta de la Transfiguración del Señor, es día de testimonios de testigo ocular. El primero, una visión que el profeta Daniel reporta, era muy conocido por Jesús y sus apóstoles. Es una poderosa y memorable visión del cielo. Tiene llamaradas de fuego, ruedas encendidas, el sabio anciano y el Hijo del Hombre. Es claro que Daniel vio algo. Pero, ¿fue un sueño? ¿Fue algo real? ¿O fue solamente un mito astuto?
¡Pedro no quiere que su visión sea confundida de igual manera! Nos cuenta el Evangelio de san Marcos lo que él y sus amigos Santiago y Juan vieron cuando subieron un día a la montaña con Jesús. Jesús les ordenó a los tres testigos que no dijeran nada hasta que “el Hijo del Hombre resucitara de entre los muertos” (Marcos 9:9). Por si los lectores del Evangelio dan por descontada la historia o simplemente la descartan como un mito piadoso, Pedro escribe su propia versión de la Transfiguración de Jesús en su segunda carta a la Iglesia. Escribe con autoridad, como testigo ocular. Reporta este mensaje de Dios referente a Jesús: “Este es mi Hijo muy querido, al que miro con cariño”, y nos asegura que el mensaje es digno de “creer(se) firmemente”.

TRANSFIGURATION of the LORD WEEK of AUGUST 6 - AUGUST 12, 2017 4
June 23, 2017 Most Reverend John E. Stowe, OFM Conv. The Catholic Center 1310 West Main Street Lexington, Kentucky 40508 Dear Bishop John, Christ’s Peace!
You asked for an update within six months on the use of our tabernacle in the Eucharistic chapel in the bell tower. The arrangement you approved in your letter to me of March 6, 2017 is working very well. The people are most grateful, and have come to me to tell me so.
Steve Trimble, husband of our business manager Mary Jane Trimble, designed, built and donated a beautiful pedestal on which the tabernacle is mounted. See photo below.
In addition to giving you this update, I am writing now to share with you an idea I have been entertaining to switch out the traditional tabernacle tower in the main church (See photo below), restoring it to its original and intended place in the bellower where it was placed by design in 2001 when this church building opened. (No doubt you have heard the story of how this tower was moved as well as the circumstances surrounding it.)
Now that the Trimble pedestal has turned out to be so beautiful a work of art, I think it aesthetically worthy of being placed in the main church sanctuary in the same spot where the tabernacle tower resides at present. The original tabernacle tower, Gothic in style, would be more appropriately restored to the more traditional Eucharistic chapel in the bell tower with its more traditional stained-glass. In this way, both spaces would assume coherent design schemes, each in their own right. I will present this proposal to the Parish Pastoral Council only if I first receive permission from you for this move.
Thank you for entertaining this proposal on behalf of the people of Saint Andrew Church.
With every prayer and good wish,
Rev. Albert J. DeGiacomo, Ph.D. Pastor
