Page 2 With Burning Hearts We Proclaim the Good News January 28, 2018 In Deuteronomy today we hear that God s very words will fill the mouth of a true prophet, but a false prophet will, in a manner of speaking, put mere mortal words into God s mouth. In Mark s Gospel, we see Jesus teaching and healing as a true prophet, one filled with the authority of God s own voice. The whole history of our church is filled with both true and false prophets. Some false prophets were extremely popular and quite well-versed in scripture, and even held positions of authority. But in today s Gospel we learn that Jesus fame spread because he taught with authority; he wasn t an authority because he was popular or famous. Elsewhere, we also learn from him, in his desert temptation confrontations with Satan, that anyone can quote scripture, even against God s purposes. Today we hear that his authority was not like that of the scribes, who held the official positions of religious authority in his day. Our work is to do our best to discern the true prophets in our midst, and to be true prophets as well. The psalmist tells us how to do this: by not hardening our hearts when God speaks. If we truly listen to God, it will be God s very words filling our mouths. Please pray for the following priests this week: Jan 28 Rev.

CHARISMATIC PRAYER GROUP ST. JOHN EUDES Please join us on: Jan. 31, 2018 (Wednesday) 7:15 PM SJE Church Wild Goose Series Segment 12: The Spirit s Freedom "Freedom is not the ability to do anything we want, whenever we want. Rather, freedom is the ability to live responsibly the truth of our relationship with God and with one another. "- Pope St. John Paul II Scout Sunday is February 4th. At the 9:00am Mass all are invited to wear their Scout uniforms: boys and girls, leaders, past and present from any troop or pack. St John Eudes Parish charters Cup Pack 466 (Kinder to 5th grade), Girl Scout Troop 1806 (Kinder to 4th Grade) and Girl Scout Troop 2806 (5th grade to 8th grade). We will all have information booths following Mass for anyone interested or with questions. The Holy Spirit brings freedom from fear, anger, and the past. So often Christians find themselves bound by so many things and are not aware that the Holy Spirit wants to bring the freedom of God to them. Many are slaves to anger, envy, jealousy, comparisons, and addictions. You do not have to live life like that. In this segment we will discuss how the Holy Spirit can bring you greater freedom. Open to ALL. For further information, please call: Jazzy (818) 625-3386; Imelda (818) 882-8962 Thank you St. John Eudes for all your support!!
