Today’s Gospel appears to be quite self-evident – a father and two sons. Each son is asked to work in the father’s vineyard. One refuses, and then goes away. The other says, “Yes sir, it will be done,” but never does. Which of them was obedient?

The CICC was formally lighted up last Wednesday night signaling its readiness for the big event next week. It was not the usual ribbon-cutting affair. Rather it was a light switching one, which to me was highly dramatic as it was symbolic. First, the whole edifice appeared as a faintly visible reality rising out of an open space bathed in darkness. Then suddenly when the lights were switched on the structure proclaimed itself in full grandeur, a phenomenon almost magical in size and splendor.
