The Feast of the Baptism of the Lord January 12, 2020

Today, we celebrate the Baptism of the Lord, the official end to the Christ-mas season. There is still some confusion about the timing of the Christmas sea-son, so I found this statement on the website of the Conference of the US Bish-ops for clarification: “The liturgical season of Christmas begins with the vigil Mass-es on Christmas Eve and concludes on the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord. Dur-ing this season, we celebrate the birth of Christ into our world and into our hearts, and reflect on the gift of salvation that is born with him…including the fact that he was born to die for us.” It might seem strange to us that we end the Christmas season with Jesus’ baptism, as the other major feast days in the Christmas season have to do with his birth and with his family. But, the Church concludes the Christmas season with this feast day because Jesus' baptism reinforces the Christmas message. His baptism tells us that God's chosen way of being with us is not as a faraway ruler of the universe up in the heavens, but as God who chooses solidarity with us in all our human weakness. Jesus' baptism show God as Emmanuel, as one of us. As God with us, as God incarnate, Jesus leads us to be be what we were created to be. The other religions in the world do not see God as incarnate as one of us human beings. God chose to come to us in incarnate form in order to reveal his immense love for us.

Parish Mission Statement

We, the family of St. Jude, Pearl, Mississippi are a vibrant, Eucharistic community with caring mem-bers that are empowered by baptism to serve God through the sacraments. We will proclaim the good news and provide spiritual and moral guidance to parishioners and the community by creating a holy and comforting place that encourages active participation, service to each other, and love.

FAITH AND FUN SUNDAY

JANUARY 12, 3-5pm

BAPTISM: BORN INTO THE KINGDOM

Test Your Knowledge of Baptism

Parts of One Body Game

Snacks and a short movie

Flying Dove and Baptism of Jesus crafts.

For families with children in grades K – 6th.

Younger children are welcome under parent supervision.

7th – 12th grades and adults can volunteer.

Contact Stacy in the office is you would like to help.

Sign-up this weekends of 11-12. If you have not already attend Alpha Course, please prayerfully consider attending the next Al-pha Course. Each Alpha Course begins with a meal followed by a

short 30 minute video and table discussion. There is no pres-sure. If you are looking to deepen your relationship with Christ and get to know some new friends, join the conversation. Alpha is an amazing opportunity! For me, the best part was hearing the remarkable true stories of how people turned their lives around and turned to Christ after attending Alpha. The program feels like it is geared more toward non-believers or those who question their faith, but for those of us who are Christians and church goers, it helps to strengthen and deepen our Christian beliefs. —Shannon, participant Alpha 2

Stewardship Thought

Our Baptism, like the Lord’s, is a consecration to service. The bishops’ pastoral on stewardship reminds us that “. . . there is a fundamental obligation arising from the Sacrament of Baptism that people place their gifts, their resources — their selves — at God’s service in and through the Church.”
