THE FEAST OF THE ASSUMPTION IN SAINT JOHN / Inongo

Sunday, August 9, 2009 it was in all the Dioceses Rd - Congo, the Solemnity of the Assumption . This particular liturgical calendar is a measure adopted by the Congolese Bishops in the 70s, its unraveled with the Congolese state, Zaire at the time (...). In the two neighboring parishes Inongo, St. John and St. Albert in the different groups of Marian devotion, especially them, as well as for the rest of the Christian community, a series of devotional exercises were scheduled to celebrate the best event. Prayers Rosary Triduum, confession penitential procession and pèlerinnage punctuated the preparation time.

Especially in the Parish St. John the Baptist, on the outskirts of the great city of Inongo, near Likwangola this Solemnity was celebrated in its own peculiarity:

1. A Marian feast, putting in honor Marian movement, composed mostly of mothers and young girls eager to follow the example of Mother Mary, Mother of God and our Mother. An opportunity to reassess the work and vocation of women within the Church and society.

2. A Feast which takes us back our faith in the true God and challenges us at the height of our involvement in the Church, an event that is celebrated in full vacation time, but nonetheless a highlight of our life of faith like Mary who believed in the impossible of God. "Behold the handmaid of the Lord that everything is done to me according to thy word ..." (Lk 1, 38)

3. A sign of time: from the missionary era, the Feast of the Assumption has something special. The missionaries were identified as a solemnity which marks the time of the year. It's like a signal in the dry season. To the Christians of the first era, the Assumption was the date when students would leave to go eat fish. So it was a time when the waters were very down and had reached the dry season, for the people of shoreline, its saturation curve. A sudden rain and had abundant water the dusty floor of the dry season ... It was finally the beginning of the end of the dry season. For this time, the tradition has been observed: a very unwelcome rain, Saturday morning at the front - before the Sunday of the Assumption. Fortunately for that matter!

Even today, the Solemnity of the Assumption has lost nothing of its significance for the Christian faith or its significance in the course of human activities. The seasons are indeed preparing for their empty camp or campground; students went on vacation here and there are more than a short time to complete their suitcases. Deep-sea anglers await the first rain after the Assumption to catches up if the season has not been successful. As for the peasants and farmers, it is time to burn their fields and prepare their seed upon the return of the rainy season in September. In short, the Solemnity of the Assumption, is more than a symbol of faith in the lives of the inhabitants of the Lake. It is an act of faith in the heart of life that becomes culture, tradition and new lifestyle and existence.

Finally, it is the ideal time for our diocesan nuns of the Immaculate spent together here in Inongo, retirement Annual. As a tradition, they are in full retreat with Philip Yâ with the theme "Community Renouevau.

this way than in our two parishes, we were all heart and mind with them for this time of abundant grace. We also asked the Virgin Mother to be present in each of her as she had improvised a visit to her cousin Elizabeth (cf. Lk 1, 40 - 45).
