January 13, 2019 The Baptism of the Lord
"I am baptizing you with water,
but One mightier than I is coming.
I am not worthy to loosen the thongs of his sandals.
He will baptize you with the
Holy Spirit and fire."

From Father Phil
My dear Parishioners,
I want to thank each of you for your generosity to me not only over the Christmas period but also throughout the year. As the family of God in Memorial Park I hope that we will have our hearts and minds opened ever further to receive so much that God has in store for us, and that you will be filled with blessings during this year. I owe thanks to so many people who helped with Christmas cele-brations.
To the St. Theresa staff who helped with the arrangements for the Christmas Masses.
To David, our Director of Music and to all of the choir mem-bers, a great big thank you for helping us all sing God’s praises in response to the revelation of His love in Jesus.
To our deacons, I am so appreciative that we can serve to-gether in Word, Eucharist, and Love.
To all who cleaned and polished sacred vessels and candle-sticks, thank you for your time and your “elbow grease.”
To our lectors, it is a personal joy to hear God’s Word pro-claimed so faithfully and so well.
To our extraordinary ministers, it is an honor to stand beside you and share the gift of Jesus in the Eucharist.
To Margaret Tusa, thank you for repairing and restoring the Christmas vestments that date back several dec-ades. Through your efforts, hopefully they will be preserved for decades to come.
To all of you parishioners of St. Theresa, and to the many visitors who joined us, thank you for helping us to experi-ence God’s true love. Many blessings.
This week, as we celebrate John’s baptizing of Jesus, may we know that God is in total solidarity with all of His creation. As we explore the many possibilities for showing His love this new year, may we follow the example of Mrs. Louise Zwick and all who work at the Catholic Worker house, Casa Juan Diego. May we strive to work for those who all too easily but painfully became marginal-ized in our city, our country, and sadly on occasions by us as Church. With every blessing, Rev. Phil Lloyd

Bienvenidos E N E S P A Ñ O L
Noticias
Quiero agradecer a cada uno de ustedes por su generosidad conmi-go, no solo durante el período navideño sino también durante todo el año. Como la familia de Dios en Memorial Park, espero que tengamos nuestros corazones y mentes abiertos para recibir tanto que Dios tiene para nosotros, y que se llene de bendiciones durante este año. Debo agradecer a tantas personas que ayudaron con las celebra-ciones de Navidad. Al personal de Santa Teresa que ayudó con los arreglos para las misas de Navidad. A David, nuestro Director de Música ya todos los miembros del coro, un gran agradecimiento por ayudarnos a todos a cantar las alaban-zas de Dios en respuesta a la revelación de Su amor en Jesús. Para nuestros diáconos, aprecio tanto que podamos servir juntos en la Palabra, la Eucaristía y el Amor. A todos los que limpiaron y pulieron vasijas sagradas y candelabros, gracias por su tiempo y su "codo". Para nuestros lectores, es una alegría personal escuchar la Palabra de Dios proclamada tan fielmente y tan bien. Para nuestros extraordinarios ministros, es un honor estar junto a ustedes y compartir el regalo de Jesús en la Eucaristía. A Margaret Tusa, gracias por reparar y restaurar las vestimentas navideñas que se remontan a varias décadas. A través de sus esfuer-zos, esperamos que sean preservados por décadas. A todos ustedes, feligreses de Santa Teresa y a los muchos visitantes que nos acompañaron, gracias por ayudarnos a experimentar el verdadero amor de Dios. Muchas bendiciones. Esta semana, mientras celebramos el bautismo de Jesús por parte de Juan, podemos saber que Dios está en total solidaridad con toda su creación. Mientras exploramos las muchas posibilidades para mostrar Su amor este nuevo año, podemos seguir el ejemplo de la Sra. Louise Zwick y todos los que trabajan en la casa del Trabajador Católico, Casa Juan Diego. Que nos esforcemos por trabajar para aquellos que, con demasiada facilidad, pero dolorosamente, fueron marginados en nuestra ciudad, nuestro país y, lamentablemente, en ocasiones como la Iglesia. Con cada bendición, Reverendo Phil Lloyd
