Thank you, Fr. Yozefu Ssemakula, author of “The Healing of Families” for your very blessed week with us. Attendance at your seminar indicates the desire of our people to experience the healing ministry that you offer to teach others to practice among their families and loved ones. May God continue to bless you in all of the parishes and dioceses that you will visit this year. If you haven’t done so, please mark your calendars for February 14 & 15, 2015 for the second visit of Deacon Poyo from Steubenville, OH. He will present a followup to his visit last year that produced many faith-sharing groups. Check the bulletin and web site for more information. I am completing my two-part series on “What will the end of time look like?” this Monday at 7pm in the Gathering Space at 7pm. Please bring your Bible and friend and a snack. A reminded that Dr. William Rademacher, PhD will be presenting a new series on St. Paul on Wednesday mornings at 10 am. Please bring a Bible and a friend. The group will meet in the Office Meeting Room. Gospel reflection: “On coming up out of the water he saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit, like a dove, descending upon him. And a voice came from the heavens, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.” Mark’s version of the baptism of Jesus is the shortest and most to the point – Jesus is the Son of God who acknowledges Jesus as His Son from the beginning of the gospel account. Jesus has no need to receive this baptism of conversion. However, it was appropriate that he who was going to establish the New Alliance should recognize and accept the mission of his Precursor by being baptized with his baptism: this would encourage people to prepare to receive the Baptism which was necessary. The Fathers comment that our Lord went to receive John’s baptism in order to fulfill all righteousness (cf. Mt 3:15), to give us an example of humility, to become widely known, to have people believe in Him and to give life-giving strength to the waters of Baptism. “Ever since the Baptism of Christ in the water, Baptism removes the sins of all” (St Augustine, “Sermon” 135). Fr. Jose Martin Alcantar, OFM La celebracion del bautismo del Senor, narrado en este domingo por San Marcos, nos permite adentrarnos en el ambiente de espectativa creada por la predicacion de Juan el Bautista. Asi, el “mas grande de los profetas”, no permite que su fama ascetica se centre en el, sino que invita a las multitudes a dirigir la atencion en Aquel que sumergiendose en las aguas sera lleno del Espiritu Santo. Para Jesus el sumergirse en las aguas simboliza aceptar libremente la muerte. De esta manera el Esposo, lleno del Espiritu Santo derrama su amor sobre la esposa, e instaura con ella una nueva boda, una alianza, para siempre. Alianza basada no ya en el cumplimiento de la ley, sino en el amor. El amor que nos libera por dentro, imprimiendonos el impulso necesario para poder superar todos los obstaculos y comenzar a vivir en la gracia y la libertad. Sin embaro, nuestro pequeno esfuerzo por corresponder a Dios en nuestra vida humana, es solamente correspondencia al amor que tambien nos ha sido dado por El, asi como dice Sta. Teresa del Nino Jesus: “Consentid en ser como un nino pequeno, que por la practica del bien pretende levanter su piecesito para subir la escalera. Pero que ni siquiera por su propio esfuerzo llegara a subir el primer peldano, pero Dios solo le pide su buena voluntad. Y ya vera que pronto, vencido por sus esfuerzos intulites, Dios mismo bajara y lo tomara en brazos para llevarlo a su reino para siempre”. La semana pasada y hasta el dia de hoy hemos tenido el taller de “Sanacion familiar”, o “The healing of families”, con el Padre Yosefu Balikudembe Ssemakula, del 5 al 8 con la comunidad hispana y del 9 hasta hoy dia 11 de Enero con la comunidad Americana. Esperamos que Dios nos envie mucha curacion y fortalezca nuestras relaciones familiares y a todos los participantes. Muchas gracias a todas las personas que han colaborado para hacerlo possible. A Wade Cornelius, a Jim Brueggen, a Elizabeth Benke, A Joey Valenzuela , y a todo el Staff de la Parroquia. Pronto continuaremos con la Hora Santa los jueves, ahi tambien fomentaremos la oracion por la sanacion familiar. Y sera a partir del jueves 22 de Enero. Estan todos invitados. Los Viernes y Sabados, a partir del 23 y 24 de Enero iniciaremos con la experiencia del Spanish Pastoral Counseling Group, tanto para matrimonios como individualmente. Si te interesa habla con el P. J Martin Alcantar. From Navarre Catholic Biblical commentary Please Watch “Notes From The Cross”” With Msgr. John Anderson, P.A.
