Please Pray For All the Sick, the Elderly, the Homebound All Who Have asked For our Prayers Baby Bennett Robert Richards, Lisa Klingenberg & Dave Daly BACKGROUND TO THE GOSPEL In the pre-scientific age of Jesus' time, all illnesses were understood to be manifestations of evil and sinfulness. Our modern understanding of illness is very different. Possession by unclean spirits may have been a way to describe what we might call mental illness today. It may have even been a way of describing certain kinds of physical conditions. There is evidence that there were many kinds of exorcists and healers in first-century Palestine. Jesus appears to be like these healers, but he heals with unique authority and connects his healing activities with the words of his preaching. We are missing the point that Mark is trying to make in this Gospel, however, if we try to explain away the healing work of Jesus. The crowds see in Jesus' cure of the possessed man further affirmation of his authority. Jesus' power to heal gives greater credence to his teaching. Jesus impresses the crowds through his words, which are manifested with power in his deeds. Mark's Gospel tells us that because of the authority with which he healed, Jesus' fame spread throughout all of Galilee. (Loyola Press) FAMILY CONNECTION The people who heard Jesus teach and saw him heal in today's Gospel were said to have been astonished and amazed by the authority of his teaching. So compelling were Jesus' words and actions that the news about him could not be contained; it spread quickly throughout all of Galilee. Two thousand years later, the news about Jesus continues to spread. We are called to participate in sharing the Good News of Jesus with others in our words and in our deeds. (Loyola Press) MORE Care more than others think necessary. Trust more than others think wise. Serve more than others think practical. —Anonymous ST. BLAISE DAY TUESDAY FEBRUARY 3rd. In memorial of St. Blaise, blessing of throats will be done after the 7:00am and 12 Noon Masses. Saint Blaise, pray for us that we may not suffer from illnesses of the throat and pray that all who are suffering be healed by God's love. 2015 Catholic Ministries Appeal Parish Goal $41,000 CATHOLIC MINISTRIES APPEAL We are starting the 2015 Catholic Ministries Appeal here in our parish and in many parishes across our Diocese. Please prayerfully reflect upon the graces and blessings God has bestowed on you and your loved ones and consider what size gift you can offer to the Catholic Ministries Appeal in thanksgiving and charity. The decision you make is between you and God. Through prayer and reflection, you will come to a meaningful response. There are many ways to give financially: quarterly pledges, pledges over ten months or a one time gift. Some people prefer to make their donation via credit card, which enables them to benefit from the various mileage or cash back programs their credit card company may offer. Our goal for the appeal this year is $41,000. Every gift makes a difference. There are brochures in the vestibule of the church. You can use the envelope you received in the mail to make your gift or you may take the material in the vestibule of the church. While this is our parish, our spiritual home, we are part of a much larger, Universal Church family. Acting together as members of one family united in Christ’s love we have the opportunity to Serve God by Serving Others. Thank you for your spiritual and financial gifts to our parish. I pray that God will continue to bless you in all that you do. Sincerely, Father Marian GŁOSIĆ Z RADOŚCIĄ EWANGELIĘ O RODZINIE Pamiętamy także o osobach żyjących w powtórnych związkach i o tych, którzy z różnych powodów odrzucają sakrament małżeństwa. Ojciec Święty Franciszek przypomniał bardzo wyraźnie, że Kościół nigdy nie potępia człowieka, ale stanowczo piętnuje grzech, który stoi na przeszkodzie do szczęścia ludzkiego. Wszyscy jako Kościół – biskupi, kapłani, osoby konsekrowane i świeccy, a zwłaszcza rodziny, mamy towarzyszyć osobom zagubionym w ich powrocie do Boga. Pamiętajmy, że obowiązek ewangelizacji spoczywa na każdym z nas zgodnie z własnym charyzmatem i powołaniem. Głosić Ewangelię rodziny to dawać radość i nadzieję, to przekazywać miłość, którą żyjemy w rodzinie, to być blisko tych, którzy najbardziej potrzebują naszej obecności, wyciągniętej ręki i dobrego słowa. Każda rodzina potrzebuje siły duchowej, aby przeciwstawić się różnym prądom usiłującym zniszczyć jej istotę i odebrać jej radość Ewangelii. Taką siłę daje modlitwa rodzinna. To wspólne wołanie do Boga, który jest naszym Ojcem, pozwala odkryć głębię miłości złożonej w ręce ludzi. Dziś jednak nie wystarczy sama tylko modlitwa. Rodzice, wspólnoty parafialne, ruchy katolickie i stowarzyszenia muszą 2015 MASS BOOK podejmować na bieżąco wyzwania stojące przed nami. The are plenty of Masses available in the 2015 Mass Nie pozwólmy odebrać sobie nadziei, nie pozwólmy book. A Mass is a nice way to remember someone strącić się w przepaść samotności – przypomina często who passed away or for someone on the occasion of a papież Franciszek. birthday, anniversary, or for someone who is sick or just because…….
