2 JANUARY 15, 2017 From Our Pastor, Fr. Fausto... My Dear Friends, Last Monday we commemorated the Baptism of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Today we hear the Gospel in which John the Baptist gives the solemn testimony about Jesus: Behold the Lamb of God and telling his disciples to follow Jesus The Son of God. We repeat before communion that same profession of faith done by the presider, adding the answer given by the roman officer in professing total faith in Jesus power to heal his child from a distance, without arriving at his house: under my roof. The image of the lamb, in which the lamb was slain, recalls the Passover freedom last meal of Israel in Egypt, and the yearly remembrance by the Jews of the end of their Egyptian slavery and the march toward the promised land. Jesus is for us the lamb slaughtered by the Roman soldiers, so that we may enter the promised land of paradise. Many people are confused about the Baptism of John, because we Catholics presume the following: 1.Jesus instituted the Sacrament of Baptism; 2.Jesus did not need to be baptized. We are definitely right on both accounts. So what was the Baptism of John? According to the Gospel of Matthew (3:13-14), John, the son of the priest Zechariah and of his wife, Elizabeth (Luke 1), started preaching a Baptism of Repentance in preparation for the coming of the Messiah. John adopted the striking, symbolic ceremony of Baptism to impress the Jews of his time, about the need of sorrow for their transgressions of Mosaic Law, and so powerfully introduced the Messianic awakening, preparing the way for Jesus preaching. Our noun, baptism, comes from the Greek-Roman noun baptismos which means to dip into water, to sink, to immerse, to bathe or wash. Ritual washings were common among ancient people and the Jews, as the Book of Leviticus shows. So John went to the River Jordan and, holding the hands of the repentant sinners, immersed them totally under the water. The symbol was very clear; a complete death to sinful life in going under a watery tomb, and coming out of the water, a new life in God for the sinners. Jesus was not a sinner, but he submitted to John s baptism (as He did also to pain, hunger and death) just to identify Himself with our humanity. Jesus then took the symbolic rite of John s baptism and made it a Sacrament, not just a symbol, but a true sign of adoption of all the baptized Christians by the Triune God. With Baptism we become children of God, removing the old, wrong choice made by Adam (original sin), and accepting the new choice conquered by Jesus with His Incarnation, Death and Resurrection. The first Christians were puzzled by the fact that the sinless Lord needed to be baptized or cleansed of His non-existent sins. The first Christians, many of them disciples of John the Baptizer, did not grasp what Jesus intention was, and the biblical scholars have debated long and hard on this subject. It is apparent to me that our good Lord had many reasons to do so. I m guessing now, but I think that first of PSALTER WEEK II all it was to show John that his prophecy of the imminent coming of the Messiah had been fulfilled in Jesus. John saw the Holy Spirit descending on Jesus. Here we touch the Christian dogma that Jesus was truly a man in which the invisible God showed Himself visibly to all people as a true human being; Jesus grew up in wisdom, age and knowledge of His own uniqueness as the vessel of God, and so the Jewish man, Jesus, had a glimpse at that moment of His unique destiny as Savior of Mankind, and as Son of God. The second reason, I guess, was to let John send all his disciples to follow Jesus from then on. Shortly thereafter, John was imprisoned and was martyred by the incestuous King Herod. I can think also of a third reason, namely, that Jesus tried to live a life totally in synchrony with the most fervent Messianic Jews of His time, going faithfully to the Synagogue, and accepting John s invitation to all Jews in preparing for the Messianic Era. Let us remind ourselves today about our own Baptism and the promises made to Jesus on that day, usually through our parents and godparents; promises to put Jesus ahead of ourselves, of our pride, of our pleasures and of our possessions. Jesus is our Numero Uno, our Number One! How sad I was to hear two ladies complaining a few weeks ago, about the St. Paul passage to the Ephesians (Eph 5:21-33), of the call for wives to be submissive to their husbands. In my opinion, these two ladies made two mistakes: 1. the idea of putting feminine identity ahead of our identity with Christ, and 2. a very common one we Christians make, which is, we take one sentence of the Bible, isolating it from the rest of the Holy Scripture and guiding our lives according only to that sentence. The Bible has to be taken in its totality. All passages relating to a particular topic have to be compared with the Biblical passages relating to such topics, and only then can we find the true message of God for that topic, as affirmed by the Pope Emeritus Benedict XIV, in his Apostolic Exhortation, Verbum Domini. The same Bible that exhorts the wives to be submissive, also says that the husband should follow the example of Christ; a husband is called to love his wife as Christ loves the Church, and Christ died for the Church, and so, therefore, husbands should be ready to die for their wives - never mind having to take out the garbage, or not communicating at the dinner table! We would like to invite you to our annual Unity Mass this Saturday, January 21 at 5:30 p.m. Come and join us to fulfill Jesus prayer that all His children be one, As you Father and I are one ; and join us for a reception in the Fausto Hall following the Mass.

4 BULLETIN PASTOR We observe Martin Luther King Day on Monday. His niece, Alveda King, says: "In the last 40-plus years, 15 million black people have been denied their most basic civil right, the right to life. Roughly one quarter of the black population is now missing. This hasn't happened because of lynch mobs, but because of abortionists who plant their killing centers in minority neighborhoods and prey upon women who think they have no hope. The great irony is that abortion has done what the Klan only dreamed of. "It's time that we remember the sacrifices of men like my father and my uncle... It's time to stop killing the future and keep their dream alive." Prayer for Selflessness O Dearly beloved Word of God, teach me to be generous, to serve Thee as Thou dost deserve, to give without counting the cost, to fight without fretting at my wounds, to labor without seeking rest, to spend myself without looking for any reward other than that of knowing that I do Thy holy will. Amen. St. Thomas More 2017 Concert Season! Tickets for the Concert Season at St. Thomas More s Chelsea Center are now on sale. This will be a terrific concert series with must see artists!

ANTHONY JANUARY 17 Born into a wealthy Egyptian family, Anthony gave away his inheritance and became a hermit. He was well known for his holiness, wisdom, and asceticism. After years of solitude, he gathered those who had followed him into the first monastic community. He left his solitude only to go to Alexandria to encourage those being persecuted and to help Bishop Athanasius counteract Arianism. May we share his desire to find Christ both in solitude and in community with others.

Prayer Line: Segundo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 15 de enero de 2017 Te voy a convertir en luz de las naciones, para que mi salvación llegue hasta los últimos rincones de la tierra. Isaías 49:6b TRES MISIONES Hoy comenzamos con una de las cantos del siervo del libro de Isaías, una canto profético sobre el ministerio de servicio de Jesús. La misión de Isaías no sólo es lograr que los hijos de Jacob se reúnan en Israel, sino también es convertirse en una luz de las naciones (Isaías 49:6). Jesucristo, como servidor, será el cumplimiento de la antigua profecía y la base de la nueva. Este domingo comenzamos una serie de lecturas de la carta de san Pablo a los corintios. Aquí se define a Pablo de acuerdo a su misión: es un apóstol de Jesucristo. La Iglesia en Corinto a quien se dirige en su carta también se define: es parte de la Iglesia universal de Dios. Los corintios, como todos los cristianos, son llamados a la santidad. Aunque la fiesta del Bautismo del Señor se celebró el domingo pasado, el Evangelio de hoy también alude a la importancia de dicho acontecimiento. La lectura enfatiza que Jesús tiene precedencia sobre Juan: su bautismo en el Espíritu erradicará el pecado. Jesús acepta el bautismo de Juan, a pesar de que él mismo es el Cordero de Dios.

However, it contains an important revelation from St. John the Baptist about Jesus, our Lord and Savior. John the Baptist testifies, I saw the Spirit come down like a dove from heaven and remain upon him. We are fond in the Church to use the symbol of the dove to represent the Holy Spirit, but what John says is not that the Spirit was a dove, but it descended like a dove. The Spirit descends upon us as well throughout our lives as Catholics. At our Baptism the Holy Spirit came upon us, and we received the fullness of the Holy Spirit s gifts at Confirmation. Nevertheless, we receive the Holy Spirit at every Mass and especially at the Eucharist. Just as John the Baptist spoke of seeing the Holy Spirit descend upon the Lord, that same Holy Spirit descends upon us. You probably have never paid much attention to how a dove actually descends. It sort of hovers and floats downward. Its descent is smooth, deliberate, and in its own unique way. This Spirit has descended upon us and continues to do so. It fills us. What do we do with it? It is part of our very being, but for it to be effective we must share it and use it. Our Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI once said, No one can give that which they do not personally possess, which means we cannot transmit the Holy Spirit if we ourselves are not close to the Spirit.
