Thursday / Jueves 9AM to 6PM
After four Advent weeks of purple and two Christmas weeks of white we once more enter into the “green season” of Ordinary Time for the next for six Sundays. There is a lot to do and we are always attentive to the life of the Church around us as we are called to serve God and one another.
We notice, and I admit I often fail to appreciate, the environ-ment of the church during the different seasons. We have many (not enough but many) members of our community who give of their time and talents to help beautify the church building each and every week, and this does include Ordinary Time. This is not one of my “gifts” so I am very thankful to Joyce Billings and her team who make the worship space wel-coming and holy.
It is also a blessing to have an active Altar Society who care for the church and the sacred linens and vessels for the celebration of the Mass. Once again, this ministry which began even before we were a parish, works qui-etly behind the scenes in serving our Lord in humble gratitude. The wom-en and men who make up our St. Lucy Altar Society (and we need more) are wonderful examples of giving back in thanksgiving for the blessings received in the sacrifice of the Mass.

THE BAPTISM OF OUR LORD Last Monday, January 8th, the Church celebrated the Solem-nity of the Baptism of Our Lord. This brought to an end the season of Christmas. The Church recalls Our Lord's second manifesta-tion or epiphany which occurred on the occa-sion of His baptism in the Jordan. Jesus de-scended into the River to sanctify its waters and to give them the power to beget sons of God. The event takes on the importance of a second creation in which the entire Trinity intervenes. Many of the incidents which accompanied Christ's baptism are symbolical of what hap-pened at our Baptism. At Christ's baptism the Holy Spirit descended upon Him; at our Bap-tism the Trinity took its abode in our soul. At His baptism Christ was proclaimed the "Belo-ved Son" of the Father; at our Baptism we become the adopted sons of God. At Christ's baptism the heav-ens were opened; at our Baptism heaven was opened to us.
EL BAUTISMO DE NUESTRO SEÑOR El pasado lunes 8 de enero, la Iglesia celebró la Solemnidad del
Bautismo de Nuestro Señor. Esto puso fin a la temporada de Navidad. La Iglesia recuerda la segunda manifestación o epifanía de Nuestro Señor que ocurrió con motivo de su bautismo en el Jordán. Jesús descendió al río para san-tificar sus aguas y darles el poder de engen-drar hijos de Dios. El acontecimiento adquiere la importancia de una segunda creación en la que interviene toda la Trinidad. Muchos de los incidentes que acompa-ñaron al bautismo de Cristo son simbólicos de lo que sucedió en nuestro Bautismo. En el bautismo de Cristo, el Espíritu Santo des-cendió sobre él; en nuestro Bautismo la Trini-dad tomó su morada en nuestra alma. En Su bautismo, Cristo fue proclamado el "Hijo Amado" del Padre; en nuestro Bautismo nos convertimos en los hijos adoptivos de Dios. En
el bautismo de Cristo los cielos fueron abiertos; en nuestro Bau-tismo el cielo se nos abrió.
Camp Thrive es un programa de campamento que colabora con la Pa-rroquia de Santa Lucia en Campbell,
California. Nuestra misión es ayudar a los niños a ser individuos completos y comprender el valor de la reflexión es-piritual, el liderazgo y la comunicación.
