SPACE IS LIMITED!! BOOK EARLY TO AVOID DISAPPOINTMENT!!

Dear Parishioners of St. John, This week I will travel with a small group of parishioners to Washington DC for the 45th March for Life. I have participated as a seminarian in the March for Life before. I am excited to go back there as a priest. As a gift from God, every human life is sacred from conception to natural death. The life and dignity of every person must be respected and protected at every stage and in every condition. Let us pray that the life of every human person from concep-

tion to natural death might be enshrined and protected in our laws. If you would like to join me in watching the Super Bowl Game on February 4th, please call the parish office with your name and number of people attending. BYOS and BYOB!! The doors will open at 4:00 PM. For your convenience, 50/50 envelopes are back in your regular packets starting in Feb-ruary. You may also pick them up at the entrance of our church. Notice that the building main-tenance envelopes will be dated and will be collected on the first Sunday of each month. Let us continue to keep each other in prayer, Fr. Karol

GOSPEL MEDITATION - ENCOURAGE DEEPER UNDER-STANDING OF SCRIPTURE January 14, 2018 2nd Second Sunday of Ordinary Time "He first found his own brother Simon and told him, 'We have found the Messiah.'" After spending the day in the company of Christ, Andrew took action. He shared the good news! Instead of keeping his newfound friendship with Jesus all to himself, Andrew invited his brother into the fold. Andrew found Simon and

"brought him to Jesus." This was no small matter because Simon would become Peter, the first pope! How important it is to bring others along with us to meet Christ! Yet, how often do we reach out with the kind of confidence that Andrew had? Are we ready and will-ing to share our faith with our family and friends? Do we consider our relationship with Jesus a gift to be shared, or a fact to be safely hidden away in our personal prayer corner? Part of our call as Christians is to evangelize others, to share with them the good news of salvation. Loving Jesus and following his moral commands is essential, of course, but it is not the end of the story. The Gospel message is meant for all people, and we are meant to be its messengers. Sometimes this requires us to step out of our comfort zone. It may mean speaking up when we'd rather be silent. It may mean inviting someone to Mass when they might say no. But it might also mean a conversion for someone we care about. It might mean a new minister for the Church. Ultimately, it might mean another saint in heaven. None of that is up to us, however. What we can control is only whether we share our faith joyfully and extend the invitation to others to experience the peace that comes from knowing Christ. *************************************************************************************************

MEDITACIÓN EVANGÉLICO - ALENTAR ENTENDIMIENTO MÁS PROFUNDO DE LA ESCRITURA (Gospel Meditation) 14 de enero de 2018 2º Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario Me imagino que no viene a nuestra memoria Juan Bautista cuando escuchamos las palabras del sacerdote en la Misa cuando dice: "Este es el Cordero de Dios". Juan había preparado a sus discípulos a tal grado que cuando encontraran a Jesús, lo siguieran y de él se olvidaran. El Evangelio lo narra así: "En aquel tiempo, estaba Juan

el Bautista con dos de sus discípulos, y fijando los ojos en Jesús, que pasaba, dijo: 'Ese es el Cordero de Dios'. Los dos discípulos, al oír estas palabras, siguieron a Jesús" (Jn 1, 35). Frase de triunfo y de fuerza que escuchamos en cada Misa. También observemos la pregunta de Jesús a los discípulos de Juan: "¿Qué buscan?" La respuesta de ellos fue: "¿Dónde vives, Rabí?" Jesús los invita y nos invita a cada momento de nuestra vida: "Vengan a ver". Para reflexionar durante la semana en las lecturas de hoy veremos que algunas veces el llamado y quien llama no es claro, como escuchamos en la primera lectura. En otras ocasiones quien llama es muy claro como en el Evangelio. De cualquier manera, cuando respondemos, nuestra vida cambia. ¿Quién me ha guiado a Jesús en mi vida? ¿Al seguir a Jesús lo he encontrado en...? ¿A quién he lle-vado a Jesús cuando lo he encontrado? Las respuestas van de acuerdo al grado de compromiso que tenemos con nosotros mismos, con Dios y con la comunidad, pero lo más importante va de acuerdo a la relación personal que tenemos con Jesús. De ahí parte todo del "vengan a ver" y quedarnos exta-siados como los primeros discípulos que estuvieron con Jesús todo el día. ¡Atrévase, Jesús le espera, está en los pobres!

TRIP TO 2018 MARCH FOR LIFE-AND MORE-IN WASHINGTON, D.C.

Fr. Karol and a few parishioners from St. John’s plan to travel to Washington, D.C. to participate in the 45th Annual March for Life on January 19. This year’s March theme is, Love Saves Lives. The March for Life began as a small demonstra-tion and rapidly grew to be the largest pro-life event in the world. The peaceful demonstration is a witness to the truth concerning the greatest human rights violation of our time, legalized abortion on demand. The march is "to provide all Americans with a place to testify to the beauty of life and the dignity of each human person." While in D.C., the group also plans to tour the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception (known as ‘America’s Catholic Church’). This is where the Trinity Dome, the ‘Crowning Jewel’ of the Basil-ica, is located. They will also visit the newly opened Museum of the Bible. It’s a trip that is expected to be filled with many spiritual rewards. The group will share pictures and memories of their experience upon their return.

BASILICA OF THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION

The Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, DC, is the largest Roman Catholic church in North America and is among the ten largest churches in the world. Desig-nated by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops as a Na-tional Sanctuary of Prayer and Pilgrimage, the National Shrine is our nation’s preeminent Marian shrine, dedicated to the patroness of the United States, the Blessed Virgin Mary under her title of the Immacu-late Conception. This patronal church is home to over 80 chapels and oratories that personify the cultural diversity of the United States and embrace our common Catholic faith – in particular, a devotion to the Blessed Mother under the title of Im-maculate Conception.

TRINITY DOME The Trinity Dome is the central and largest dome of the National Shrine. This “Crowning Jewel” will be adorned in mosaic according to the original iconographic scheme of the Great Upper Church and will depict the Most Holy Trinity, the Blessed Virgin Mary as the Immaculate Conception, and a procession of saints who have an association with the United States and the National Shrine. The procession of saints includes, among others, St. Juan Diego (the first canonized male Native American), St. Kateri Tekakwitha (the first canonized female Native American), St. Teresa of Cal-cutta (an honorary American citizen), St. Francis Cabrini, M.S.C. (the first U.S. citizen to be canonized), St. John Paul II (the first pope to visit the National Shrine), and St. Junípero Serra (declared a saint by Pope Francis at the National Shrine in 2015 for the first canonization ever to take place on American soil). The Nicene Creed will encircle the base of the dome, while the dome’s four pendentives will feature the four Evangelists: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.

MUSEUM OF THE BIBLE The Museum of the Bible is a museum in Washington DC which documents the narrative, history and impact of the Bible. The museum opened on November 17, 2017. With 1150 items from the museum’s permanent collection and 2000 items on loan from other insti-tutions and collections, the museum claims to have amassed one of the largest assemblies of biblical artifacts and texts in the world through col-laborations with private donors, institutions, and other museums.

A TWIN BAPTISM

Our St. John family celebrated the baptism of twin girls, Melody Pearl and Poppy Nicole, daughters of Nicholas and Megan Henrichs. They were baptized on Sunday, January 7th. Family and friends were on hand to celebrate this special day for these special girls. On this blessed day, may God look down on Melody and Poppy, cherish and guide them the rest of their lives.

SPREAD GROUP AT SAINT ANN

Our SPRED (Special Religious Development) Ministry is in need of adult vol-unteers (21 years of age and older) in order to continue its ministry at St. Ann Church. As per our current leader, Annette Leber, our SPRED volunteers are retiring and need others to take their places to assist our friends with special needs in our faith community. We are having a meeting Monday, February 5 at 7:00 p.m. for parents of children, adolescents, young adults, and adults with special needs, as well as interested adults who want to be a role model to our friends in working with this ministry. You will meet Annette and her group who will explain the SPRED program. Parishioners with intellectual and developmental disabilities and learning problems from the age of six to well into their 80s are served through various Archdiocese SPRED programs. At St. Ann, we serve residents from LARC who are adults (ages 22 and older). St. Ann SPRED is seeking adult men and women who want to grow in their faith and be a friend to one person from LARC within a small faith group of eight volunteers and six friends. We are looking for volunteers who enjoy meeting others, and are open to friendships with other parishioners. This ministry helps each participant become more aware of the presence of God in their lives through a specialized program. Each volunteer is paired with a friend and they learn from each other, and experience joy, laughter, prayer and hope and fellow-ship. No prior experience is needed to become a volunteer, and training is provided. The group meets monthly September to June. For more information, please call the St. Ann Parish Office at 895-6700.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION

“Ordinary Time” began for us this week. On the old calendar, the feast of the Presentation, still more than two weeks away, was the last day of the Christmas season. Sadly, Bethlehem is hardly a place of peace on earth these days. The ancient Chris-tian community has been largely uprooted by political strife. The Church of the Nativity stands (barely) in remarkable disre-pair and disorder in Manger Square. The roof is crumbling, the major doorways are blocked, the wiring is faulty, and the wor-ship life is disrupted by quarrels among Eastern Christians. The church was founded by the Emperor Constantine in 325, destroyed in a Samaritan revolt in 539, and rebuilt by the Emperor Justinian. When the area came under Muslim control in 638, the holiness of the church was respected, and in re-turn Christians allowed Muslims to pray in the south aisle, a right still upheld. Earlier in that century, invading Persians were ordered to destroy all churches, but when they saw the magi carved over the doorway of the Church of the Nativity, they spared it out of respect for their ancestors who bore gold, frankincense, and myrrh to the same city. The Crusaders restored and redecorated the church by the twelfth century, and it is their plan that survives. Down a few stone steps is a stone grotto with a silver star marking the place of Christ’s birth: when the star was stolen in 1847 it triggered an interna-tional crisis that exploded into the Crimean War. Since 1852, the church has been shared by the Roman Catholic, Greek Orthodox, and Armenian Churches. The Greeks are in charge of the grotto, but don’t enjoy the best of friendships with the Armenians. Catholics have the care of the Chapel of the Manger, and avoid the squabbles by a separate entrance to the Franciscan monastery church of St. Catherine. Pray for peace in Bethlehem! —Rev.

LAMB OF GOD

“Behold the Lamb of God!” We hear this phrase every Sunday at Mass, but there’s a good chance that many Roman Catholics do not know who in the Bible originally spoke it. The phrase appears only in the Gospel of John, on the lips of John the Baptist, who utters it twice. In today’s Gospel reading, John proclaims Jesus as the Lamb of God, and two of John’s own disciples then follow Christ. A little bit later Andrew, who heard John and then followed Jesus, brings his brother Simon to be re-named Cephas, or Peter. A careful look at these Bible verses shows us the mission of everyone baptized into the Body of Christ: we must always proclaim our faith in Christ, so that others will follow him. We may not know how the will of God might work through those we bring to Christ; that is not the point. The point is that our ongoing mission as a church is to bring others to Christ, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.
