Dear Friends in Christ, Today marks the Second week of Tempus per annum or Time through the Year incorrectly called ordinary time in English. There is nothing ordinary about the Incarnation of the Word in time. There is nothing nebulous about the time that God provides for us. As we begin this short season formally called Time after the Epiphany, we return to green-colored vestments and we will hear about the mir-acles of Christ. In the modern Roman calendar, this will last until the end of Feb-ruary where we will begin Lent. Today, we hear John’s version of Jesus calling the disciples. They are eager to stay with Him; in fact, He captures their attention wholly and completely. What would it be like for us if permitted Christ to capture us wholly and completely? To not want to leave His side? To not look at relationship with Him as “ordinary?” Next weekend, Fr. Alex Kreidler will offer Masses at St. Ann. Daily Masses are canceled from Tuesday, January 19th-Wednesday morning, January 27th. I will offer normal daily Mass next week starting with Wednesday evening, Jan-uary 27th at 6:00pm. Many Blessings,

Fr. Schneider
