2 Second Sunday in Ordinary Time Page 2 Second Sunday in Ordinary Time January 17, 2016 Nations shall behold your vindication, and all the kings your glory. 1saiah 62:2 SURPRISES Life is full of surprises, some pleasant, some not. The scriptures are filled with stories of God s surprises cropping up when they are least expected: younger children obtaining the inheritance; the lowliest being seated highest up; an itinerant preacher, killed like a criminal, exalted to eternal, heavenly glory. Anybody who has planned a wedding or similar event knows that they are filled with opportunities for surprises. For the bridegroom in today s Gospel story, who has no direct contact with Jesus, the pleasant surprise came because somebody else paid attention and had faith in Jesus. We may think that the point of today s familiar story of the wedding at Cana is that when we have faith in Jesus, our lives will be pleasantly changed. A Christian, however, needs to have a broader perspective and realize that to have faith in Christ means that somebody s life not necessarily our own will be surprised for the better. Copyright J. S.

4 Second Sunday in Ordinary Time Page 4 BRITTANY NIECE HEADS TO PORTUGAL It is with great excitement that I m informing you that Brittany Niece is joining The Sisters (Alliance De Santa Maria) at Fatima, Portugal. Brittany went on a pilgrimage to the Grotto at Fatima where she encountered Our Lady of Fatima and the Sisters. Something beautiful happened for Brittany, and after lots of soul searching she is entering the Religious Life. Our prayers as a parish go with her. I ve always wanted to go see Our Lady of Fatima. Now I ve an added reason for going there and so will you. The parish, our youth group (STAY), and the Knights of Columbus are hosting a special dinner for Sister Brittany on the night before she leaves for Fatima. All are invited after the Sunday evening Mass, Jan. 31st.... But please call our parish office for reservations at ************************************************************************************************************* NEAR THE END Our parish directory is nearly complete. I will be mailing a postcard to each family to help us to finally go to press. Rose Cottle and her committee will have twenty draft copies available after all the Masses on January 23/24 and on January 30/31. We need your help to be as accurate as possible. Some photo s may have been misplaced, some names not properly spelt. This has been a massive undertaking and your patience and cooperation are requested. Thanks & God Bless, Fr.

5 January 17, 2016 Page 5 Segundo Domingo del Tiempo Ordinario 17 de enero de 2016 Entonces las naciones verán tu justicia, y tu gloria todos los reyes. Isaías 62:2 SORPRESAS La vida está llena de sorpresas, algunas agradables, otras no. La Sagrada Escritura está llena de relatos sobre las sorpresas de Dios que surgen donde menos se esperan: los hijos más jóvenes reciben la herencia, a los más humildes se les dan los sitios de honor; un predicador itinerante, condenado a morir como un criminal, es exaltado hacia la gloria celestial eterna. Cualquiera que haya planificado una boda o celebración similar sabe que está llena de oportunidades para que surjan sorpresas. Para el novio (el cual, en el relato bíblico, no tiene contacto directo con Jesús) la agradable sorpresa vino porque otra persona había prestado atención y tenía fe en Jesús. A lo mejor pensamos que la lección de la conocida historia de las bodas de Caná es que cuando tenemos fe en Jesús, nuestra vida cambiará positivamente. Sin embargo, un cristiano necesita tener una perspectiva más amplia, y darse cuenta que tener fe en Cristo implica que la vida de alguien sea la tuya, sea la de otra persona va a mejorarse sorpresivamente.
