ST. JOSEPH’S NAMALAKA MALAWI—THIS WEEK IN NAMALAKA, ST. JOSEPH PARISH The Sister Parish Committee made a presentation to the Friday Night Hispanic Youth Group last week that was
a joy to see and be part of. We shared a slideshow, spoke on the geography, history and culture of life in Ma-
lawi and the challenges and struggles. We tried on the mode of dress called “chitenge”, an all purpose wrap
type skirt and we learned the song “Tiembey Alleluia” (we Sing Alleluia) and how to uulate-(like singing Woo-
Hoo or Yay in English), making sounds of praise and joy! We recorded this event and sent the images to Na-
malaka and here is the response we received: “MONI (hello) We are really moved and our hearts are close to
yours with enthusiasm and love. The photos and videos are marvelous and beautiful. Nobody expected any of
you to remember the Malawi songs and my kids are wondering how Azugu (white people) can sing in
Chichewa. Filled with joy and love I promise to share these with the congregation before Mass on Feb. 10.
The youth here are composing and practicing simple short songs to be sent so that you will share with the
youth at your parish.” Love in Christ and Mary, John Andrew Phiri (head school master)
TRIP TO MALAWI IN JUNE—If you are feeling called to learn more about going to Malawi, call Marie Hedden at

Hedden’s home.

Family Connection
We may be unfamiliar with fig trees, but we might know about the growth of spring flowers. Perhaps we have looked at a dry, brown flower bulb and wondered how this produces the colorful tulip or daffodil blossom that we expect to bloom in the spring. Perhaps we've even thought about the pa-tience and hope that are required to plant flower bulbs in October. We don't have to be gardeners, however, to know about patience and hopefulness. As parents, we practice these virtues each day with our children. We may become frustrated and even angered by their willfulness and lack of coop-eration. Yet we continue to offer our attention and guidance in hope that one day our efforts will bear fruit. Today's parable suggests that God is like that with us, working with us in patience and in hope that one day we will show evidence that such work is not in vain. As parents, we know God's kindness when we find evidence for our hope for our children. Does God find such glimmers of hope as he works with us?
Gather your family and show a spring flower in bloom. Recall that in the fall this flower was a dry bulb (if a flower bulb is available, show this as well). Talk about the hopefulness and patience shown by those who plant flower bulbs in the fall in the hope that they will bloom in the spring. Read aloud today's Gospel, Luke 13:1-9. Compare the parable of the barren fig tree to your discussion about spring flowers. Consider the patience and hopefulness that God has with us as he works with us, calling us to return to him when we sin. Offer prayers of thanks and praise to God for his patience and hopefulness towards us. Conclude by praying together today's Psalm, Psalm 103.
