We are centered in Jesus Christ, empowered by the Holy Spirit and nourished by the Eucharist. We are a welcoming family, striving to see Christ in all and responding to the needs of the members of our parish and community. Called to act in faith, hope and love we seek to become a visible presence of Christ in the world.
2 Reflecting on God s Word The Beatitudes can certainly seem illogical and absurd unless we consider the person who is speaking. It is Jesus, the one who became lowly and despised in order to become our righteousness, our sanctification, and our redemption. He personified the anawim to become the true hope of all people. Jesus is the insulted, persecuted one who relies on God alone; he is also the merciful peacemaker and source of all blessing. To the poor, the mourning, the persecuted, Jesus says, Everything that you are suffering, I have suffered. God did not abandon me and I will not abandon you. To the rich, the powerful, the content, Jesus says, I shared every blessing I had with the poor and the lowly, even my life. Do the same and you too will know God s saving mercy. To both Jesus says, Trust in the Lord of infinite possibilities, who will bless you with courage and peace and true joy together.

Jesus speaks the words Blessed, meaning HAPPY, OR TO BE ENVIED. These sayings are known as the Beatitudes, and each blessed is followed by a reason for enjoying God s goodness. These sayings can be summarized as righteousness, in relationship with God, people, and the world around us. Situations in life will cause hunger, thirst, and persecution in the reign of God, but followers of the Lord will experience divine blessings. Together, the Beatitudes present a new set of Christian ideals that focus on a spirit of love and humility different in orientation than the usual force and exaction taken. They echo the ideals of the teachings of Jesus on mercy, spirituality, and compassion. Next weekend, besides being Super Bowl Weekend, we will have on Saturday our next FIRE night here at the parish. All are welcome, but if you plan to stay for dinner, please inform the CCD office ahead of time. Also next weekend after the 8:30am and 10am masses in the morning there will be a SUPER BOWL BREAKFAST in the hall- free to all. Please come and enjoy a coffee, a bite to eat, and some conversation. The Youth of the parish will have a SOUPER-BOWL collection at the doors, collecting your change, to be given to the Plum Food Bank. Have a SUPER week, and keep well and be warm. God bless. Fr.

3 PARISH NEWS New Youth Room How many gallons of paint does it take to transform a 20'x20' room? Youth Ministry recently discovered the answer (five gallons) when Room Two underwent a makeover. The change took place after a need was identified to create a less formal space for youth to meet and hold discussions. Kristin Consuegra and Mike MacConnell, the youth coordinators for the church, enlisted the help of Lynne MacConnell to make their vision come to light. After several cans of paint and two over sized beanbag couches were added, groups of all ages now have a more relaxing environment for social gatherings. One of the unique attractions, is the newly installed miniature lights hanging from the ceiling. Visitors have the option of turning out the standard lights to pray under the "stars." The ultimate goal was to offer the youth in the community a safe space to "hang out", play board/video games, and enjoy fellowship on Saturday evenings. Mike MacConnell stated that, "This is a big change for the church. For the first time, youth can feel that they have a place where they can call their own and relax in a low key, non-classroom setting." He continued, "Our (Youth ministry) hope, is that by providing a less formal environment for the youth and CCD program, young Christians will become more open to a discussion about their faith, compared to the traditional catechesis." A huge thank you to Lynne for her tireless painting and multiple store trips to get needed supplies. An additional thank you to the many groups sharing the room for keeping an open mind to changes. If you have not had the opportunity to experience the newly updated airy oasis, stop by and see the direction the Holy Spirit is leading Our Lady of Joy Church. Looking at Pivotal Players in Church History Our Lady of Joy will be hosting an opportunity to learn about pivotal players in church history through a DVD series hosted by Bishop Barron called Pivotal Players. The series will be six weeks and will study the lives of Michelangelo, G.K. Chesterton, and Thomas Aquinas. Each pivotal player will be studied for two consecutive weeks. The series will begin on Wednesday, February 22 and continue each Wednesday (skipping Ash Wednesday March 1 st ) through April 5. The sessions will be held in the Father Marchukonis Hall starting at 7:00pm and will be team taught by St. John the Baptist and Our Lady of Joy Parishes. We look forward to celebrating the lives of those who have impacted our Catholic faith in a significant way as we journey on our own pilgrimage home. To register for the class call Our Lady of Joy Rectory (412) or Greg Callaghan at greg@ourladyofjoy.org.
