Joseph taking care of the Infant Christ while Mary studies Torah. Besançon Book of Hours, 15th Century.

German Christmas plays composed by and for devout laypeople in the late Middle Ages routinely portray Joseph as a man who performs tasks that contemporary audiences would have understood to be women's work. In effect, Joseph mothers the newborn Christ child. The scene of Joseph singing a lullaby and rocking the cradle of his infant foster-son first appeared in devotional practices before being taken up by medieval pictoral art and drama. [… These scenes] portray Joseph as a man who performs a number of tasks typically understood to be women's work. He tends the fire, offers refreshments to thirsty visitors, and provides childcare such as rocking the cradle, heating milk or porridge, bathing the baby, and singing him to sleep. The notion of Joseph as domestic caretaker is not limited to these performance practices; it became a common element in the iconography of late medieval Nativity scenes as well. A painted retable from the central Rhine valley dating from around 1410 and a woven antependium from the upper Rhine valley dating from 1501 depict the elderly Joseph cooking porridge for his wife and foster-child over an open fire, while a miniature in a lavishly decorated Book of Hours probably produced in Delft circa. 1415-1420 portrays him drying diapers before the hearth. A lengthy list of similar examples could be compiled at will.

Langfredagstanker – Good Friday thoughts – Karfreitags-Gedanken

We all know the expression, being “sent from Pontius to Pilate”… In that, we think of Jesus being sent from one instance to the other. The high priests wanting him to be eliminated, but not having the authority at the time. So, the unpopular Romans have to take care of it.

Normally, I myself am quite busy from Palm Sunday till Easter Monday, leading 5-7 worship-services. This time around, I find myself, sitting in the pews, while listening and observing how other colleagues go about it. This gives me the opportunity to see the dramaturgy behind the different worship services. On Maundy Thursday the obligatory undressing of the altar while putting a black tablecloth on it and the announcement, that we will leave the church in silence. Since I normally leave the bible – the Word of God – on the altar, I saw, that even that was taken away. In the church I serve, I prefer to leave the altar blank (with the bible on it) – the black antependium reminds me too much of entire houses clad in black cloth and all female relatives wearing a black veil in catholic Flanders (as I grew up).

The next day, during the Good Friday Service, I discover five objects on top of the black cloth. “Must be roses – not just one”, I realize. And then the sunlight enters through the big side window next to the altar: there they are, beaming in the sun – these common symbols of love. The message is simple and clear: even in death Gods love prevails: “Midt I alt som er – Guds kjærlighet er sterkere!”, as my college Sunniva loves to say.

Back home – the fish in the oven, the vegetables, potatoes and sauce cooking – I recall the Readings from Mathew. Probably hearing them in Norwegian causes me to hear and recall in a different way: yes, it’s about Jesus being interrogated and sentenced innocently, while being dragged from one authority to the other, the responsibility equally being shoved from one to the other. Religious and political authorities – for once – act hand in hand like a well oiled machine. And in the end the people – spectators at he palace of Pontius Pilate – have to decide and of course – while everything is being laid out for them – demand crucifixion (the usual death penalty for severe criminals).

Seriously anxious leaders deal with Jesus on this day. They don’t like Jesus – for different reasons. They have in common a genuine fear of loss of power AND the inability to take responsibility.

This – in fact – is a common condition amongst human beings! So in the end, Jesus was murdered not by the authorities, but thru the hand of people, ruled by dislike and fear, the unsated will to rule and cowardice, while leaving the responsibility to someone else.

When these factors come together, humanity is at loss! And while – in daily life – it makes me speechless again and again, I do know that only Gods love and exuberant welcome can overcome this human condition! As we take on the responsibility for ourselves, our neighbours and the entire creation – a responsibility given to us, from the beginning of all things (cfr. Genesis 1,26ff).

[vestments]

Why Your Parish Should Invest in New Vestments!

Church Vestments are sacred items, with the specific role of being 'Sacramentals' conveying Grace. There are different colours for the different Liturgical Seasons - white, red, green, purple, black, and for two days of the year Rose. Gold replaces white on great Feast Days and when there is no other alternative. Feast Days are of different 'classes', allowing for a tremendous variety of possibilities in design and ornamentation. Weaving all together though, is the absolute necessity for the Vestments to be properly constructed and decorated in such a manner as to inspire the Faithful.

40 years ago, with the spirit of 'renewal' sweeping the Sacristies of the world, many beautiful, richly ornamented vestments were tossed out and replaced by horrific substitutes. It seemed that anything was acceptable in the headlong rush for change. All-enveloping, tentlike robes flooded the market and made the earnest Catholic choke in their pew bishop's vestments.

Four decades later, there is a tremendous resurgance and interest in these classic, timeless designs. The Holy Father, Pope Benedict XVI, has encouraged traditional Rites, and traditional Sacristy furnishings. The new, modern styles, simply do not fit the mould of Tradition. Many sacristies are looking for Roman and Gothic Vestments, Copes, Catholic Banners, Altar Cloths made from pure linen, clergy cassocks, antependiums, vesper covers, Pontifical High Mass sets, Church metalware, processional canopies, Mass Linens… the list goes on and on and on.

But, where are they and who makes them, from what and how?

Frankly, there's practically no-one left who know how to sew a really nice set of vestments; you know, vestments that contain sacred geometry in their ornamentation, a classic 'look' and a professional finish. The person that signs off on the finished set of vestments, needs to be aware that their name goes with it for ten, twenty or thirty years.

Something as simple as laying out the church fabric requires several key factors that most home sewers would overlook. And that's presuming you know where to buy the fabric, and how to avoid certain 'horror' rayons and metallic fabrics notorious for looking more like 'Christmas wrap' (due to TINSEL content). To lay out the fabric properly, you need an adequate work area. Having the fabric trailing off a regular table on the floor, where the cat can come along and take a nap on it, etc, etc, is totally out of the question. This is where a professional studio environment comes in and can end up saving you or your parish money in the long run. Church fabric can be purchased on Ebay, and often it is reasonably good enough to use for vestment projects. The author, however, has seen a number of different Church fabrics, lauded as 'beautiful' and quassi perfect examples of off the roll church fabric arrive and end up being totally unsuitable. Remember, you are sewing something sacred. Just because the fabric has a Cross pattern, does not necessarily make it a good option for your project.

The numerous steps involved in successful vestment construction need to be thoroughly understood and applied.

What do you do with banding that creates a corrugated effect on the fabric by stretching the fabric it is stitched to?

How do you line a gothic Chasuble to get a 99.99999% perfect result?

What stops satin lining on the Gothics from billowing out like a parachute?

Does stitch direction really matter? What goes inside Roman Chasubles? What stops trimming from puckering, buckling, corrugating and looking terrible?

If you are considering taking up the noble work of church sewing, this is a wonderful thing and God will reward you abundantly. However, just make sure you know what you are doing first. It's not as easy as you would think. And don't forget: your work will be under close scrutiny from friend and foe. Sometimes, investing in vestments and sacristy goods to be made for your parish professionally, by a Studio that has the expertise, knowledge, machinery and resources will actually save you money and time - not to mention possible embarrassment.

30 days of productivity: days 13 and 14

Dimanche 13: aucun travail à part une visite au musée de Cluny, qui ferme pour travaux le 28 septembre. J’essaye d’y aller avant la fermeture pour voir ces objets magnifiques de plus près et les connaître le mieux possible. Lundi 14: j’ai totalement fini l’Inventaire du trésor de la Sainte-Chapelle, où je n’ai presque rien trouvé d’intéressant; j’ai aussi planifié ma journée de demain à la bibliothèque et lu un livre sur la demeure médiévale à Paris.

Feat.: le merveilleux antependium (devant d’autel) de Stavelot et la rose d’or offerte par le pape Jean XXII au comte de Neuchâtel en 1330.

Sunday 13th: I didn’t study at all, but I went to the Musée de Cluny, which will be closed for renovations at the end of the month. I tried to spend some time there before closure, to see these gorgeous works of art and know them as well as I can. Monday 14th: I completely finished to read the Inventory of the treasure of the Sainte-Chapelle where I found almost nothing of interest for me; I also planned my day in the library tomorrow and read a book about medieval houses in Paris.

Feat.: the incredible antependium (altar frontal) of Stavelot and the golden rose given by pope Jean XXIInd to the count of Neuchâtel in 1330.
