DEDICATION OF THE LATERAN BASILICA
In 324 A.D., Pope St. Sylvester consecrated the first public Chris an church in
Rome, “The Church of Saint Savior” built on property given to the Church by the
Emperor Constan ne. Later, during the eleventh century, its name was changed
to "Cathedral of St. John Lateran." This church is important for several reasons:
First, it is the Cathedral Church of the Holy Father as Bishop of Rome. This makes
it the "mother" of all Cathedrals around the world. Secondly, it was the center of
the Catholic Church for centuries, where the Popes lived and were buried for a
thousand years before St. Peter’s Basilica was ever built and where several
Ecumenical Councils were held. Thirdly, this Cathedral makes it possible for us to
be in a public place of worship right now. We are an "Ins tu onal Church"
because, back then, Chris anity was ins tu onalized in the Roman Empire.
Finally, we celebrate its dedica on both to honor our link with the Pope and to
reflect on the meaning of church buildings, including our own parish church.
There are wonderful churches around the world displaying many architectural
styles, each reflec ng some dimension of our faith. Romanesque churches
(Na onal Shrine of the Immaculate Concep on), are huge and massive,
displaying Christ’s majesty and grace. Gothic churches (Na onal Cathedral),
emphasize height and light, poin ng us toward heaven. Renaissance churches
(St. Peter’s Basilica), emphasize order and hierarchy. Baroque colorful churches
put devo on and emo on into complex structures. At a me of "sensory
overload," modern churches are built with simplicity to emphasize the basic
elements of altar, tabernacle, chair, lectern and bap smal font. There is no place
like home - our parish church. What is the meaning of our parish church?
Here Christ's grace flows to us in the celebra on of Mass and the Sacraments as
well as in individual moments of personal prayer for ourselves and of
intercession for others.
Here we cross a threshold from the world into God's Kingdom, like an invisible
bridge; we are reminded that we have a des ny beyond this present moment.
Here we cross a threshold from daily life, where we are judged by ques onable
human standards, to a place of grace where we all have dignity and worth and
find compassion in God’s sight. Our parish church is a true reflec on of our souls.
People come to church expec ng it to be a bright, clean and welcoming place
where God's presence is reflected. But for that to happen, first, we must make
sure that our souls are clean of sin and deceit and filled with Jesus' light.
The Dedica on of the Lateran Basilica is both an
opportunity to thank God that we have a parish
nearby and a reminder that God’s purpose is
being worked out in churches all over the world.
Our parish church is truly a place where earthly
me and eternity, God and humanity meet.

Music Ministry to Prisoners
For 20 years, our members have led the Catholic music
ministry for the Spanish Sunday service at the county jail
in Boyds, about once a month. The small congrega on has
been grateful and welcoming, and we now hope to
expand this ministry for the simultaneous English service.
We need at least one guitarist and two more song leaders
to help with either the Spanish or English service. No
special skills required; just reasonable ability to carry a
tune and willingness to serve this forgo en popula on.

Ministerio de Prisiones
Por los pasados 20 anos, algunos miembros de la
Parroquia de Santa Rosa de Lima han estado a cargo una

Condado localizada en Boyds. La pequeña comunidad
reunida ha sido muy amable y nos ha recibido bien. Ahora
estamos intentando expandir este ministerio e incluir un
servicio simultáneo en Ingles. Estamos buscando, al
menos, un guitarrista y dos cantores dispuestos a ayudar
en los servicios en Ingles o en Español. NO se necesitan
ninguna preparación especial, basta con ser capaz de
cantar y desear servir a estas personas olvidadas. INFO:

Rite of Acceptance & Rite of Welcome
This weekend, we celebrate the Rite of Acceptance/Rite of
Welcome for some who made the decision to move
forward in their journey as a catechumen (not bap zed) or
candidate (bap zed Chris an or Catholic). Their choice to
go on marks their “Exodus” from the Period of Inquiry (the
Precatechumenate) into a new way of life. This new life will
be an answer to God’s earlier call to follow Him. They are
now part of the St. Rose community, the family of God.
Their acceptance into this worshipping community is
marked by a formal Rite, a step closer to the Easter
sacraments to which they will be “elected”.
Pilgrimage of the Relic of St. John Paul II
On Wed., Nov. 12, St. John Neumann Parish in Gaithersburg will have the
great privilege of receiving the pilgrim relic for the postula on of St. John
Paul II. Mass will be celebrated at 7:00pm, followed by Rosary and me
for those present to venerate the relic and to receive a holy card touched
to the relic. All are invited.
