My Dear Parishioners,

"We saw His star at its rising, and

have come to give Him homage." This is

one of the verses for this weekend's cele-

bration of the Epiphany, that is the Man-

ifestation of Our Lord to the Gentiles.

The explanation of the Three Magi

seems so simple and straightforward.

But like most aspects of our salvation history, there is

more to the story.

The star was there for all to see, but only those who

were open to its meaning were blessed with seeing who

and what it represented. The account of the magi helps us

see that Jesus was born to be more than the King of the

Jews. Jesus came to draw all people to Himself, and to

redeem all of humankind. The mission of Jesus and His

Church has no political or geographical boundaries, as we

heard so eloquently in this weekend's second reading of

St. Paul's letter to the Ephesians.

Today, as we come to this final piece of the Christmas

Story, let us thank God for all God has done to open the

doors of Heaven for us. His love knows no boundaries.

Even our sin, and our turning away from Him cannot sep-

arate us. God constantly places stars before us, beckoning

us to come to Him, and to return home.

This Holy Year of Mercy, declared by Pope Francis,

is one of those stars. It announces the year in which God,

in his special way, is calling us to experience his mercy,

and to give that mercy to those whose injustice or mean-

ness have created a boundary between us and them. No

sin is so great that God cannot forgive and forget it. Dur-

ing this Year of Mercy, may we be given the Divine

Grace to do what our human nature has no power to do,

namely to bestow mercy on others.

Let us do our part in announcing that Good News to

those who have not yet seen the light. Let the Love of

God shine on us, and like the Star of Bethlehem, lead oth-

ers to Jesus.

In next week's bulletin, I will announce the date of a

special meeting when we can, as a parish, plan events and

devotions that will help us appropriately celebrate this

Jubilee Year of Mercy in our community.

Have a Blessed and Happy New Year!

Isaiah 40: 1-5, 9-11 or 42: 1-4, 6-7

Psalm 104 or 29

Titus 2: 11-14, 3: 4-7 or Acts 10: 34-38

Luke 3: 15-16, 21-22 In the Gospel, Jesus is at prayer after His baptism when

the Holy Spirit descends on Him and the Father’s voice is

heard. This Spirit-anointing launches Jesus on His ministry;

in the same way, you and I are launched on our ministry by

our baptism and confirmation. As Saint Paul tells Titus, the

Spirit was poured out on us through Christ that we might be

heirs in hope of eternal life. Let us listen for God’s call to us

in the Holy Scriptures.

Holy Baptism

Cornerstone for LifeCornerstone for Life

Resolution for 2016 Jesus was born into a harsh world, where Herod was

doing the unthinkable: killing babies.

Is there any doubt that our world today needs Jesus to

come and dwell among us?

As a new year begins, let us resolve to be a more ef-

fective and dedicated instrument of Jesus. Let us do more

to promote love and peace. Let us do more to help moms

turn the unplanned into a loving plan that embraces inno-

cent life.

Let us do more to change our culture of death.

A Note of Thanks The Greeters Ministry would like to extend our thanks to all

the parishioners who helped out for the Masses on Christmas

Eve and Christmas Day. With the combination of the extra

Masses and people’s travel plans over Christmas, we really

needed the extra help. We wish everyone a blessed new year!

Padre Pio Festival Meeting Tuesday Jan. 5 at 7pm

In the Drexel Center

As you can see on the full page announcement on page 6

of today's Parish Bulletin, we have begun to plan for our first

ever Padre Pio Festival. This spiritual and cultural festival is

being led by the Knights of Columbus. But because it is ex-

pected to be such a large event, drawing many pilgrims from

all over the area, we will need the help of many people.

A second organizational meeting will be held on Tuesday

Jan. 5, at 7pm in the Drexel Center. Come and find out

what has been planned so far, and how you can help, and per-

haps offer your ideas and talents. Saint Padre Pio is known

and loved by many Catholics throughout the world. Many in

our own parish have their personal stories of his intercession.

Come and let us help spread his story of faithfulness to Jesus,

and experience his powerful help from heaven.

Knights Help With Christmas Tree Set-up & Decoration

The beautiful trees on our altar this Christmas season were set up and decorated by our St. Bede Knights of Columbus Council. Thanks to the Knights for their help with the trees, and for all they do for our parish throughout the year.
