Dear Parishioners:
Happy New Year!
This weekend, we celebrate the Feast of
the Epiphany. This feast commemorates that the child born in the
darkness of night in a lowly manger is revealed as the manifesta-
tion of God. The beautiful Christmas story of the three Wise Men
or Magi is the basis for the gospel this weekend.
The wise ones from the East believe that the star signals the
birth of the King of the Jews to whom they all pay homage as their
Lord. The visit of the Wise Men is tinged with foreboding danger,
pointing to Jesus’s Death and Resurrection.
This week, we return to our “normal” schedules as we try to
maintain our New Year’s resolutions.
I wish each and every one of you a very blessed New Year. Let
us remember each other in our prayers.
Happy New Year,
The Epiphany of the Lord
03 January 2016 2

rienced, we are beautifully decorated for the season! The

Spring 2016, April/May). There is no fee, but registration is
required. Space is strictly limited so call early. To register
call Deacon Kevin Byrne (301-279-5962) or Claudia

Parishioner in Search of Housing A single mom with 8 and 10 year old sons (who attend
Farmland ES and St. E’s religious ed program) is in need of
housing. She is able to pay some rent, and is hoping to find a
room or a basement where she and her boys can live as she
searches for a full time job with a stable income. She is will-
ing to be a housekeeper and/or house sitter, as part of the
accommodation arrangement. If you have space to help her
out, or know of someone who might, please call Marie (240
216 9899).
Msgr. Macfarlane Book Discussion Msgr. Macfarlane’s annual Sodality-sponsored book dis-
cussion will take place on Wednesday, March 16, 2016. The
book he has chosen this year is: Created to Relate, God’s
Design for Peace and Joy, by Kelly M. Wahlquist. “Kelly
Wahlquist’s new book is a breezy and fun introduction to
evangelizing. Catholic women will appreciate Wahlquist’s
verve and humor as she examines how the feminine genius
inspires our sharing of the faith. Created to Relate reminds
women that evangelizing isn’t scary — we were made for
this!” -Pat Gohn, award-winning Catholic author. Books are
available through the parish office for $14.50. A limited
number of books through the parish are available, so get your
copy while supplies last! See Kathy Swartz for your copy.

main SOME building on 71 “O” Street, NW, in Washington,

month.). Although our parishioners are very generous in their
support of the program, we can always use new volunteers

Youth Ministry News
Our Youth Group starts back up this Sunday night, January 3. We will reflect on our year, the ups and downs, highlights and
challenges and ways in which we would like to grow in 2016. It will introduce our January theme: New Year, New Service, a
month dedicated to living for others. We have lots of great service projects planned and as a pre-approved SSL service organi-
zation, every one of our service projects is good for SSL hours including our Wounded Warriors Care Packages Night and our
annual Souper Bowl of Caring, food pantry collection.
Parishioner and long time volunteer for Project Gabriel, Natalie Ray, will be joining us as guest speaker on January 10. She
will witness to her great work for the organization which benefits women who find themselves with an unexpected pregnancy.
“An abortion-minded woman needs to know that real help is close by, not only from government agencies, but from the
Church, her spiritual home. Project Gabriel expresses what the Church is called to be, a community of believers who, by living
their Faith in action, become more sensitive and responsive to the needs of those who may be outside that community. No so-
lution goes more swiftly and effectively to the heart of the abortion problem. It is a compassionate and caring way in which
each parish can carry out its mission to proclaim and extend the Gospel of Life” (Project Gabriel’s Purpose Statement). With
one in three pregnancies in this country ending in abortion, Project Gabriel’s loving response is a truly inspirational one which
is truly needed.
