1 CHURCH OF ST. THOMAS MORE GLENDALE, AZ JANUARY 4, 2015 Liturgy Epiphany Changes Everything An Epiphany is not simply an idea. Writer D.H. Lawrence wrote that people can do anything they want with an idea, but a truly new experience changes everything; before you can do anything with it, it does something with you. The Magi, whom we recall on this feast of the Epiphany, experienced Jesus personally. While we have two centuries of teachings, reflections, arguments and writings about the experience of knowing Jesus, they came face to face with the Christ. That had to change them; the experience had to do something with them. The last line of today s Gospel tells us they went home by another route. I have to wonder if the route was all that was changed. Were those Magi not changed, too? After a personal encounter with Jesus, can you ever be the same? Epiphany is the manifestation or shining forth of Jesus: the revelation of who Jesus really is. The Church s Dogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation makes very clear in the first chapter that revelation is not about God revealing ideas or dogmas, but God s very self: In His goodness and wisdom, God chose to reveal Himself and make known to us the hidden purpose of His will by which through Christ, the Word made flesh, man might in the Holy Spirit have access to the Father and come to share in the divine nature. (Dei Verbum #2) What does today s Gospel reveal about Jesus? The answer lies partly in the gifts of the Magi: gold, frankincense and myrrh. Each in their own way, the gifts reveal who Jesus is and who he will be gold for a king, frankincense burnt in the worship of God, and myrrh, an ointment used to bury the dead. Welcome to the Parish Prayer of St. Thomas More: Give us, good Lord, the grace to work for the things we pray for. Our warmest welcome to all who worship with our parish family, whether long time registered or newly arrived in the parish. If you are not registered, please stop by the Parish Office and pick up a registration form. For your convenience a drop box is located outside the Parish Office front doors if you wish to leave paperwork when the office is closed. Please do not leave checks or cash. THURSDAY MORNING BIBLE STUDY This study group is on Christmas break and will resume Thursday, January 8, 2015, 9:20 a.m. PERMANENT DIACONATE INQUIRY EVENINGS Men and their wives are invited to attend one of the Inquiry meetings to find out about the requirements for ordination, the application procedure and the life and ministry of the Deacon. Meetings have been scheduled for: Tuesday, January 13, 6:30-9:00 p.m. St. Bernadette, Scottsdale Saturday, February 7, 9:00 a.m. - Noon OLPH, Glendale Tuesday, February 10, 6:30-9:30 p.m. Holy Cross, Mesa Saturday, February 28, 9:00 a.m. - Noon Immaculate Conception, Cottonwood And what about that star? We re told the Magi followed it from the East. Perhaps here, Matthew s point is that at Jesus birth there was a sign but it was Gentiles rather than Jews that saw it. Christ is revealed to the whole world; a manifestation that we must also experience today. We must make the encounter with Christ a personal experience. Let us pray that this Epiphany, this experience, does something with us! Steve Raml Director of Liturgy & Music YES (Young Enthusiastic Seniors) Wednesday, January 14, 12:00 Noon Our guest presenter, Joe McCaigue, will speak about taxes and be available for questions. If time permits, we will play Left, Right, and Center, which is always a favorite. Bring a dish to share and friend. Upcoming: January 28 The YES Group will take the Light Rail to Tempe for lunch and shopping. Details will be provided at the January 14 potluck.
2 Adult Formation SHOWING UP AMONG US This day of the Magi or Three Kings is celebrated in the Western Church as Epiphany. The word means the revelation of Christ to the whole world. We are celebrating God s showing up among us as human. God sent his Son among us to tell us we have not been left in darkness. Jesus is the light for our world. But what does that mean? It does not mean that Jesus is the light at the end of the tunnel. It does not mean what the song claims: If everyone would light just one candle, what a bright world this would be. It does not mean what the couplet says: How far that little candle throws its beam, so shines a good deed in a naughty world. Jesus is not a dim glow, or a signal, or a guide through the darkness, or a light on a question, or a ray in the dark. Jesus IS radiating, life-sustaining light who comes in glory like the sun bursting over the eastern horizon. This Jesus who is both human and divine is permanently present. Jesus is light for the world because he reveals the very heart of God. Jesus is the light for the world because we see the fullness of the Father s love given to us at his birth and beyond. Jesus is light for the world because when we see Jesus, we see the Father. Jesus is the light for the world pouring his mercy through every crack and crevice, every wounded and broken heart, every lost and abandoned soul, every dark place of drugs, alcohol sex addiction, every abused woman, man or child. This is what showing up among us is all about. Pope Benedict XVI expressed the meaning of God who mercifully suffers with us: Man is worth so much to God that he himself became man in order to suffer with man hence in all human suffering we are joined by one who experiences and carries suffering with us; hence consolato is present in all suffering, the consolation of God s compassionate love and so the star of hope rises. The Encyclical Spe Salvi.

LIVE IN THE NOW/Spiritual Vitality Seasons of Spirituality Tuesday, January 6, 9:15 a.m. The blessing of the present is that it brings us to understand the fleetingness of time live with the spirit in full bloom. Joan Chittister in the Gift of Years The topic for January is LIVE IN THE NOW. Too often we live in the past and we are afraid of the future. Living in the now is our friend as it gives us space and time to realize that without the past, we could not possibly live in this present moment and the future is out of our control anyway so live in the now. Today we celebrate the feast of the Epiphany, where the Magi find the newborn king and offer him gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. In the spirit of the Magi, by your gift to St. Vincent de Paul, know that comfort and peace can once again be given to a newborn child.
