4 LETS DRESS OUR BEST TO GIVE THE LORD OUR SUNDAY S BEST! JANUARY 28, TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME "The people were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as one having authority and not as the scribes." Those gathered in the synagogue where Jesus taught had never heard anything like this before. They were used to the preaching of the well-educated scribes, but Jesus possessed something that those men lacked: authority. Instead of merely interpreting the laws of the prophets, Jesus presented a new vision, indeed, he shared the good news of the Gospel with his listeners. We do not have the opportunity to stand in the presence of Jesus in the same way that those firstcentury Jews did, but nonetheless we can also stand in awe of his authority. His teachings are available to us through the sacred Scriptures that the Church has preserved and through the sacred tradition that the Church carries on. And in a special way, Christ's authority continues to inspire and guide us through the ministries of the papacy, episcopacy, and priesthood that Jesus established on our behalf while he was yet on earth. As Catholics, we have a special share in the astonishing authority of Jesus through the hierarchy of the Church. Although this structure is often misunderstood or misinterpreted, it is actually an authority rooted in service and modeled after Christ who told his apostles, "The greatest among you must be your servant" (Mt 23:11). This humble exercise of authority is contrary to the worldly search for power. And whenever we find ourselves in a position of authority, we too should strive to lead and direct others in the true spirit of Christian love and service. Chances are, if we truly imitate Christ in this way, people will be astonished at what they see. MUSIC MINISTRY NEWS Children's Choir: We meet every Thursday from 3:15pm - 4:30pm in the music office and sing at the Saturday vigil mass at Nativity at 5:30pm every week.

Please contact Deacon (718) ext. 12. Classes are 7:PM in the Rectory basement. Holy Hour First Friday of every month at 7:30 pm Can you not watch one hour with me? (Mt 26, 40) "The only time our Lord asked his apostles was this question the night of his agony. Since that time it s been frequently seen in Church history that evil has always been awake and his disciples asleep. Therefore it is from his anguished heart and abandoned the whine Can you not watch one hour with me, He did not plead for an hour of activity, only for an hour of companionship. Through adoration, the Christian mysteriously contributes to the transformation of the world and spreading the gospel. Anyone who spends an hour of adoration before Jesus develops a personal relationship with Him and grows in love and holiness, allowing you hear and recognize His voice when He speaks to our hearts. It is also to help the worshipers to be faithful to the time of his commitment to the exposure of the Eucharist, Jesus knowing that you will not be left alone. So you are welcome to Spend an hour with Our Lord Jesus... Golden Agers Thursdays 12 pm - 3pm Next dates: February 1st Join us for Refreshments, Bingo, 50/50 & More!!
