We do not come to God alone. Someone brings us to faith, and we help others find their way to God. There is no solitary way to heaven. In our Catholic imagination, If we’re going to be saved, we are saved together.

Someone caught up with Jesus and said, “I will follow you wherever you go.”  And Jesus said to him, “Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head.” Luke appears to think that the same thing  might just apply to all of us. “Take nothing with you; carry no money bag, no sack, no sandals."

The church is not just the place we come to, it is the place from which we are sent forth. We need both, Peter and Paul. Peter, the Rock, who centers us and grounds us in faith; and Paul, the missionary, who calls us to go out to live the good news with our lives.

Ever since I heard the news of Brian Wilson’s death this week, I keep hearing over and over in my head, “God only knows what I’d be without you.” The song reassures us that love will never end. “As long as there are stars above you, you never need to doubt it. I’ll make you so sure about it.”

In the Acts of the Apostles, on the day of Pentecost, THEY were all in one place together. A few verses earlier Luke told us exactly who THEY are: Mary the Mother of Jesus was there, along with about 120 persons.

So before leaving them, he tells his disciples to go back to Jerusalem and there wait for the coming of the Holy Spirit. If they want to find Jesus, they will find him in the Christian community, in the midst of their every day lives.

Although we refer to Scripture as the “Word of God,” it is Jesus of Nazareth who is the "Word of God" made flesh and dwelling among us. So this collective memory is fluid and dynamic.
