Jean Vanier, #11

Item consists of 1 audio cassette featuring a talk given at a Covenant Retreat in June 1989.

Content notes (or transcription) from beginning of the recording: I always find it interesting when one meets someone who is thirsty for God and the works of God. Maybe it is a gift we must ask for. We can get very caught up in the works of God. It�s important to thirst for God. The heart of Christ is thirsting for communion. He is obviously deeply moved by this woman who washes his feet and is yearning to meet his heart.

Content notes (or transcription) from beginning of the recording: We ended this morning with the death of Jesus. One of the icons which always touches me is the Pieta in marble of Mary holding the dead body of Jesus in her lap with such delicacy. There is a mystery there! Then we are all called to wait like that first Saturday for the resurrection. The danger is we don�t know how to wait.

Content notes (or transcription) from beginning of the recording: The other day we were talking about Bethany where Jesus had his feet washed with precious ointment. Jesus not only defended Mary but said everywhere in the world where the good news is announced what this woman has done will also be announced. Then a few days later Jesus washes the feet of his disciples.

Item consists of 1 audio cassette featuring a talk given at a Covenant Retreat in June 1989.

Content notes (or transcription) from beginning of the recording: This morning we spent time with Mary & Martha, with jesus saying that Mary has chosen the better part. I want to talk with you about my own journey into communion and the meaning of communion, And how I sense it is the most fundamental cry of our being. It is so deeply ingrained in us. This cry to be in communion with someone else. And at the same time it is at the heart of the mystery of our Christian faith.

Content notes (or transcription) from beginning of the recording: I want to go to Bethany today. One of the things I would like you to look at as we enter this text is the insistence of Jesus about belief. We are going to have to face what does it mean to believe? Because we are all slightly confused today about belief and psychology. What does it really mean to trust Jesus? Be attentive to how Jesus calls people to belief.

Content notes (or transcription) from beginning of the recording: This morning we ended with Jesus weeping at death. The desolation and distress of Mary & Martha too. The broken communion and anguish of these two women who loved their brother. I just want to say a word about death being a terrible reality.

Content notes (or transcription) from beginning of the recording: Yesterday we ended with that incredible moment when Jesus said take away the stone and then calls Lazarus by his name. And he comes out! I just want to say a word about when there is a resurrection what happens? When we go through a resurrection what happens or someone in our community?

Jean Vanier, #10

Item consists of 1 audio cassette featuring a talk given at a Covenant Retreat in June 1989.

Content notes (or transcription) from beginning of the recording: I mentioned a number of times how when we feel rejected, we fall into loneliness and anguish. And how quickly anguish and loneliness are transformed into guilt. Guilt is the greatest of all pains, to feel ashamed. The big question is the liberation of guilt.
