    from Loreta L. Moore�

    Fr. Gary writes�

    The first month of the new year is flying by, and my gut feeling is that

    this new year will be as challenging as the last. We give thanks the

    vaccine has been rolled out and that Pope Francis has encouraged

    everyone to receive it. By the time you read this, he would have

    been vaccinated. The process of getting the population of Florida

    vaccinated seems to be somewhat haphazard.�

    I hope this process can be better organized as soon as possible. I

    realize it may be a logistical nightmare for those responsible, but �

    other countries seem to be doing a better job. I don’t think our �

    political turmoil, the division and mistrust which still besets our �

    nation, is helping. We have to find a way of moving past the turmoil

    in order to recover our heart and soul. Please don’t add fuel to the

    fire on social media, choose your words carefully, in fact don’t write

    (or respond to) political statements that will inflame others, just share

    the Gospel message of Jesus, we all need to hear it. We should be

    the most positive people in the world.�

    We all continue to keep the parish alive and active, thank you for

    your commitment and loving generosity. We continue to change lives

    through Christ! We have had to cancel parish and school social

    events. I am hoping that by May we can socially celebrate again,

    though nothing is certain. Patience is the key word. We continue to

    pray for all those who are affected by the coronavirus. I was talking

    to a parishioner who has lost ten family members to COVID. And no,

    most of them did not have underlying causes. We continue to pray

    for all those who are so selflessly caring for the sick. This has been

    an exhausting time for all who are ministering to the sick. We pray

    for all our medical personnel and first responders. We take none of

    them for granted. �

    Next Sunday, January 31

    st

    , we begin Catholic Schools Week. I

    would like to pay tribute not only to our Principal, Bobby Yevich, and

    outstanding faculty and staff, but also the children and young people

    of our school who have embraced the challenges of this �

    unprecedented year with such grace and favor, with little or no �

    complaining. Our children wear their masks, remain in their grade

    ‘bubbles,’ are quick to sanitize and respect each other’s space. It has

    been our priority to continue to give them a loving and Christ�

    centered environment in which to grow and learn. We are blessed to

    have such a wonderful parish school, with very supportive parents.

    While Catholic Schools Week will be more socially subdued, we will

    still celebrate, there is much to thank God for!�

    Yes, the mission of Christ’s Church continues across the five �

    counties of our Diocese, and today we begin the 2021 Annual �

    Pastoral Appeal: ‘Hope In The Lord.’ We have met our required

    financial goal each year, thanks to you! Our required goal in 2021 is

    $237,706! Let’s rise to the challenge and continue the essential �

    mission of Christ’s Church by bringing hope to the poorest of the

    poor in our society, training our future priests and educating our �

    children in the faith!�

    Thursdays 6:45�8:30pm�

    Conmy Center and Online�

    The Walking with Purpose faith sharing group invites all the �

    women of our parish (and friends) to join us for the second half of

    our journey through the Gospel of John. There is always a seat at

    our table or Zoom room, so please do not worry if you haven't �

    participated before. God meets each of us where we are. We have

    just completed Lesson 11, and will continue with the second

    part of the study, on Thursday, Jan 28.� During the next 10

    weeks, we hope you will join us as we learn more about Jesus as

    the Resurrection, the King, the Servant, the True Vine, the �

    Intercessor, the Truth, the Redeemer, and the Restorer. Masks

    and social distancing protocols are required for the in�person

    meeting.�The book is available through the Walking with Purpose

    website and Amazon. For more information, please contact Angel

    ENCOURAGE . ENRICH . EMPOWER

    Wow

    it really is great to be in EC3! Our Early childhood three�year old

    class has been having a blast this school year. Though things look

    a little different “socially” in our class room, we are finding new and creative ways to

    learn, and most importantly have fun while we are doing it. We have been very

    busy learning our days of the week, the months of the year, and discovering all the

    wonderful things about the seasons we have experienced so far. In Language Arts

    we have been learning our alphabet by having a “Letter of the Week.” This is �

    especially exciting for the children as they get to bring in a show and tell item �

    centered around the letter. They have such a wonderful time sharing all of the cool

    stuff with their classmates. In Mathematics we have been learning how to compare

    and contrast certain items, and even how to do a Venn Diagram! In Science we

    have fun learning about our environment by exploring outside and talking about the

    weather. One of our favorite activities is experimenting with different items to see

    whether it “sinks or floats!” We have so much fun when our “Specials” come to visit

    us during the week. We love trying out new instruments in Music, creating amazing

    masterpieces in Art, getting our exercise in at P.E. and even learning how to count

    in Spanish. Of course, story time is always a favorite too. EC3 Friends are very �

    excited about all the fun and adventurous learning we are going to encounter

    throughout the remainder of the school year. We just LOVE being “Little Romans.”�

    STEWARDSHIP: TIME, TALENT, TREASURE

    STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION

    THE RAW MATERIAL

    Someone has suggested that if Jesus were to

    send his twelve disciples for psychological

    testing today he might receive this reply:

    “Thank you for submitting the résumés of the

    twelve men you have picked for managerial

    positions in your new organization. All of them

    have taken our complete battery of tests. In

    addition, we arranged personality interviews

    for each of your candidates with our psycholo-

    gists and vocational aptitude consultants. It is

    the opinion of our staff that most of your �

    nominees are lacking in the background, �

    education, and skills necessary for the �

    success of your enterprise. None of them

    shows an understanding of the team concept.

    Simon Peter is impulsive and would benefit

    from anger�management counseling. Andrew

    has no measureable leadership qualities. The

    two brothers, James and John, place personal

    ambition above company loyalty. Thomas

    shows a skeptical attitude that would tend to

    undermine morale. In his previous business,

    Matthew was blacklisted by the Jerusalem

    Better Business Bureau. James, the son of

    Alphaeus, and Thaddeus definitely have �

    radical political leanings, and appear to have

    unstable temperaments. One of the �

    candidates, however, shows real potential. He

    is a man of ability and resourcefulness, �

    possesses excellent social skills, and has

    contacts in high places. He is highly motivated, ambitious, and �

    responsible. We recommend Judas Iscariot as your comptroller and

    right�hand man.” Today Jesus calls us. Like Peter, we lack faith.

    Like Andrew, we have much to learn. Like James and John, we are

    selfish. Like Matthew, we have a past. Like Thomas, we sometimes

    doubt. If Jesus could use them, he can certainly use us. With God’s

    help, we too can grow from strength to strength and accomplish

    great things for God and the Kingdom. The call to follow Jesus is

    urgent. Answer now.�

    Living Stewardship Now�

    God does not demand moral perfection before you can be of worthy

    service. God asks for a loving heart and a willingness to stick with

    your commitment. �

    Thank you to all parishioners for your out-

    pouring of love and prayers for our parish

    during these difficult times. Thank you to

    those who have responded so generously

    to the call to continue the mission of the

    parish by giving electronically and/or

    sending in your envelopes. We appreciate

    you and are praying for you!�

    1.� Questions play an important role in our �

    spiritual journey. If you could ask God for

    one thing right now, what would it be? �

    2.�

    3.� How do your best days start? What are the

    habits you have created that if you don’t do,

    the day just doesn’t go as smoothly?

    (Maybe it’s a run, prayer, a morning cup of

    coffee).�

    4.� If you had to pick three words to �

    describe God in this moment what would

    they be? This was a discussion question

    from Session One. Have these words

    changed since then? Why or why not?�

    Volunteers Needed

    Volunteers needed to transport 10 pans of
