Readings for the Week

January 13, 2019 One Family in Faith Making Christ Known

Today let us do honor to Christ’s baptism and celebrate this feast in holiness. Be cleansed entirely and

continue to be cleansed. Nothing gives such pleasure to God as the conversion and salvation of men, for whom his every word and every revelation exist. He wants you to become a living force for all mankind, lights

shining in the world. You are to be radiant lights as you stand beside Christ, the great light, bathed in the glory of him who is the light of heaven. You are to enjoy more and more the pure and dazzling light of the

Trinity, as now you have received – though not in its fullness – a ray of its splendor, proceeding from the one God, in Christ Jesus our Lord, to whom be glory and power for ever and ever. Amen.

Saint Gregory Nazianzen (325-389)

“You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.”

Luke 3:22 Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, With this feast of the Baptism of the Lord, the Christmas season comes to its completion. Many have long since put away the mangers and tossed the trees unceremoniously to the curb to be recycled. But for us Catholics, the Incarnation is so holy a mystery that it cannot be contained in just one day. It merely begins at Christmas, and continues throughout the Epiphany, which began last Sunday and is completed today. The Epiphany, and thus the Baptism of the Lord, is a feast of light. Christ our Light comes to be born into this dark world and to “sanctify the world by his most merciful coming” (from the Christmas Proclamation). His light brightens our way through this dark world. Christ’s light continues to shine through all of us, who, like him today, have been baptized. His baptism sanctifies the water in which we are all baptized, and by sharing baptism with him, we become bearers of his light to the world, right here in our own time and place. We are the ones now called to help Christ bathe the world in his glorious light, and it is our baptism that gives us grace to do that. It is important to realize that though we just “finished” the Christmas season with today’s feast, the Epiphany continues to go on all through the year, all through our lives. God continues to manifest himself in our lives, revealing his presence in good times and bad. We just need to always be seekers, always looking for the newborn king in every person and circumstance! And so, one last time for this season, Merry Christmas and Happy Epiphany to all. May the light of Christ guide you in all your ways this year, and may you be a glorious light to others. Yours in Christ and his Blessed Mother, Father Pat Mulcahy, Pastor

The Word from Fr. Pat


La Palabra del Padre Pat

Hoy hagamos honor al bautismo de Cristo y celebremos esta fiesta en santidad. Ser limpiado por completo y

continuar siendo limpiado. Nada le da tanto placer a Dios como la conversión y la salvación de los hombres, por quienes existe cada palabra y cada revelación. Él quiere que te conviertas en una fuerza viva para toda la

humanidad, como luces que brillen en el mundo. Deben ser luces radiantes al estar junto a Cristo, quien es la gran luz, bañarse en la gloria de quien es la luz del cielo. Deben disfrutar cada vez más de la luz pura y deslumbrante de

la Trinidad, como ahora ha recibido, aunque no en su plenitud, un rayo de su esplendor, que procede de un solo Dios, en Cristo Jesús nuestro Señor, a quien sea la gloria. y poder por los siglos de los siglos. Amén.

Saint Gregory Nazianzen (325-389)

“Tú eres mi Hijo amado; En ti me he complacido."

Lucas 3:22 Queridos Hermanos y Hermanas en Cristo: Con esta fiesta del Bautismo del Señor, la temporada de Navidad llega a su fin. Muchos de ustedes me imagino que ya desde hace días habrán guardaron los pesebres y arrojaron los árboles de navidad a la basura sin ningún problema para reciclarlos. Sin embargo, para nosotros, los católicos, la Encarnación es un misterio tan sagrado que no se puede contener en un solo día. Comienza en Navidad y continúa a lo largo de la Epifanía, que comenzó el domingo pasado y se termina hoy. Por lo tanto, La Epifanía, y el Bautismo del Señor, son una fiesta de la luz. Cristo, nuestra Luz, nace en este mundo oscuro y "santifica al mundo con su venida más misericordiosa" (de la Proclamación de Navidad). Su luz ilumina nuestro camino a través de este mundo oscuro. La luz de Cristo continúa brillando a través de todos nosotros, quienes, como él hoy, hemos sido bautizados. Su bautismo santifica el agua en la que todos somos bautizados, y al compartir el bautismo con él, nos convertimos en portadores de su luz al mundo, aquí mismo, en nuestro tiempo y lugar. Somos los que ahora estamos llamados a ayudar a Cristo a bañar al mundo con su luz gloriosa, y es nuestro bautismo el que nos da la gracia de hacerlo. Es importante darse cuenta que, aunque acabamos de "terminar" la temporada navideña con la fiesta de hoy, la Epifanía continúa durante todo el año, a lo largo de nuestras vidas. Dios continúa manifestándose en nuestras vidas, revelando su presencia en los tiempos buenos y malos. ¡Solo necesitamos ser siempre buscadores, siempre buscando al rey recién nacido en cada persona y circunstancia! Y así, una última vez para esta temporada, Feliz Navidad y Feliz Epifanía para todos. Que la luz de Cristo los guíe en todos tus caminos este año, y que sean una luz gloriosa para los demás. Suyo en Cristo y su Santísima Madre, Padre Pat Mulcahy, Pastor

The Society of St. Vincent de Paul is a global ministry to the local poor, based in Catholic parishes around the world.

The goal of St. Vincent de Paul is to bring hope to the hopeless by supplying love, food, clothing, assistance, and other emergency needs. The Society helps the poor and those with temporary needs as well. It is not a social service agency. It is a Catholic

ministry that sees the face of Christ in the faces of those who are suffering.

At St. Mary Immaculate Parish, the St. Vincent de Paul Ministry serves people in our community. Funds that are collected are distributed to those in need within the boundaries of the Plainfield 202 School District. We meet on the third Wednesday of every month at 7:00 PM.

Christians everywhere are asked to unite in prayer for the 2019 intentions entrusted to us by Pope Francis. Apostles of Prayer offer themselves to God each day for the good of the world, the Church, one another, and the Holy Father’s Intentions.

Pope Francis’ monthly prayer intention for January: Young People and the Example of Mary

That young people, especially in Latin America, follow the example of Mary and respond to the call of the Lord to communicate the joy of the Gospel to the world.

Suggested Daily Prayer: Father, Here I am. I know you are always with me. I place my heart in the Heart of your Son Jesus, who gives himself to us in the Eucharist each day. May your Holy Spirit strengthen me to live the Gospel in everything I do and say. For my part I give you this day—all my prayers, works, joys, and sufferings— all I am and possess. With Mary, Mother of the Church, I pray for the mission of the Church, for all Apostles of Prayer, and for the intentions of the Pope this month. Amen.

Our Family In Faith

Bench #2 & #3 coming soon!

You did it! With your help we have collected enough plastic caps to be recycled into two more benches for the St. Mary’s campus! Thank you for all your contributions that will keep plastic out of the landfills and provide needed outside seating options. (recycled benches supplied through the ABC Program of Green Tree Plastics) The processing cost of $250 for each bench was generously donated by the Council of Catholic Women (CCW) and the families of the Confirmation Program. The Green Team, comprised of Confirmation students who are no longer in the program and have busy high school schedules, have decided to close this project. Therefore, we will no longer be collecting bottle caps here at SMI.

Waste Management suggests leaving the lids on the bottles & place in recycling; they then have a chance of being captured for recycling and not end up in the landfill.

Word of Life

“When we encounter Christ, experience his love, and deepen our relationship with him, we become more aware of our own worth and that of others. His love for each person is cause for great joy, and growing understanding of this priceless treasure motivates us to share his love with others.”

Palabra de Vida “Al encontrarnos con Cristo, sentimos su amor y profundizamos nuestra relación con él, somos más conscientes de nuestra propia valía y la de los demás. Su

amor por cada persona es causa de gran alegría, y la creciente comprensión de este inestimable tesoro nos motiva a compartirlo”.

From the Diocese

God our Father, You made each of us to use our gifts in the Body of Christ. We ask that You inspire young people whom You call to priesthood and consecrated life to courageously follow Your will. Send workers into Your great

harvest so that the Gospel is preached, the poor are served with love, the suffering are comforted, and Your people are strengthened by the sacraments. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen

Prayer for Vocations by Pope Francis

For an increase of vocations to the priesthood, diaconate and religious life, especially in the Diocese of Joliet, we pray to the Lord.
