Abstract

Through case study research involving several Catholic pilgrimage sites in Java and Bali, this article shows the role of Catholic pilgrimage sites and their assoiated practices. By taking a phenomenological-anthropological approach informed by sacramental theology and a Catholic theology of evangelization, this article examines today’s dynamics of evangelization in an increasingly divided, complex, and pluralistic era. Pilgrimage sites and traditions have a unique role in the process of evangelization, understood as an expansion of the Church’s presence that transforms people and local communities, with pilgrimage sites and practices shown to empower pilgrims by helping them connect with God, themselves, others, and the universe on a personal, spiritual level. The administrators of pilgrimage sites also seek solidarity with a site’s surrounding community. Given that the Catholic pilgrimage tradition helps people to express their religion in personal, interpersonal, cosmic, and inclusive ways vis-à-vis other religions, the pilgrimage tradition helps the Church and society face the dangers of the privatization of religion, the politicization of religion, and the spread of radical and iconoclastic ideologizations of religion. Such is the task of contextual evangelization in a plural and complex society like Indonesia.

Abstract

The book La grâce du végétal presents unique and fresh theological reasoning regarding the “divine economy”. The world of plants or vegetation is a blessing not only for themselves but also for other creatures, including humans, in relationships. In the ecological crisis, it is increasingly recognized that plants are "providers of life". Plants perceive, feel, and communicate… beyond their seemingly mute appearance. We live with trees in a relationship marked by resonance and dependence. Schaefer offers a concept of "significative reciprocity", namely a reciprocal relationship that is important for both sides because humans also preserve themselves when humans look after trees. If this logic is continued, it might lead to a big conclusion: everything is a blessing for others. Perhaps there was an element of coincidence when I saw the book displayed on an obvious shelf. However, beyond this interest and element of coincidence, perhaps this topic also represents a movement of thinking in the broader field of theology and religious thought, which is not only increasingly inclusive but also "universal", in the sense of embracing the universe. This idea clearly expands the breadth of the inclusive movement of theology and religious thought, which has penetrated geographical and regional boundaries (theology without borders) or denominational boundaries (ecumenical) and religious boundaries (interreligious).
