WEEK OF PRAYER FOR CHRISTIAN UNITY
ECUMENICAL CELEBRATION WILL
BE HELD AT CATHEDRAL IN SACRAMENTO ON JAN. 21
The Diocese of Sacramento and representatives of many other
Christian denominations will come together for an evening of
ecumenical prayer and fellowship on Wednesday, Jan. 21 at
7:30 p.m., in the Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament, located at
11th and K Streets in downtown Sacramento. The public is invited
to attend.
This special event takes place on
February 27, 2015, 7:00 p.m., at
the Cathedral of the Blessed
Sacrament, Mercy Hall (lower
level). Parking is free in the
structure located in the alley.
Light refreshments included. Share the joy of this occasion bringing a friend! All are welcome!!
The service will be held during the observance of the 2015 annual
Week of Prayer for Christian Unity, Jan. 18-25. Auxiliary
Bishop Myron J. Cotta will introduce the worship service and a
guest speaker will address the 2015 theme: “The Woman at the
Well” and Jesus’ words to her: “Give me a drink.” (John 4:7).
The service is sponsored by the Diocesan Ecumenical
Commission.
The theme and text for each year’s observance of the Week of
Prayer for Christian Unity are chosen and prepared by
representatives of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian
Unity and representatives of the World Council of Churches. The
international texts are developed, adapted and published for use in
the United States by the Graymoor Ecumenical and Interreligious
Institute.
“This week gives us an opportunity to continue our quest for
unity, to praise God and to deepen our understanding of the
importance of the ecumenical movement,” Bishop Cotta noted in
a memo to priests, deacons, religious and parish staff in the
diocese.

FLU SEASON REGULATIONS TO MINIMIZE INFECTION
REGLAMENTOS TEMPORADA DE GRIPE PARA MINIMIZAR LA INFECCIÓN
El Departamento de Salud Pública de California informó

The California Department of Public Health recently reported

SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
Message of Life
1 SM 3:3-10,19. 1 COR 6:13-15,17-20 • JN 1:35-42
“Do you not know that your body is a temple of
the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have
from God, and that you are not your own?” St. Paul
I
f we cannot protect human life in its simplest form, we
cannot protect it in any form.
How do we react when someone says something we cannot
agree with? We can be polite, we can be dismissive, and we can
also be very ugly when someone dares to say something with
which we do not agree. We hear all kinds of ranting, name
calling, intentional misrepresentation when various people talk
about the government, politicians, and laws or institutions they do
not like. It is no different with how
we listen to and treat the Church.
We are quickly dismissive of
teachings we do not like, even
when we really do not understand
what the teachings are.
We even dismiss the Word of God
when it does not support our
personal views, decisions, or
lifestyle. It is amazing how many
ways we thwart it. God’s Word
has always involved an unbroken
chain of human beings, one person
calling ano ther to faith,
challenging another’s sinfulness,
passing on the mantle of prophesy.
Like it or not, we are part of that
unbroken chain. We are at one
moment the hearers of God’s Word
and the next we are called to be
speakers of the Word; but we are
not always willing to speak God’s
Word, especially when we think
we will be vilified for it.
WHAT ARE YOU
Sometimes God’s Word is something we do not want to hear, and
many do not want to hear the message of life. The Scriptures are
very clear. God is the author of life. In fact, life began because God
breathed the Spirit of Life into us. How can we be so dismissive of
this faith and belief? We should hear Paul. Paul’s letter to the Corinthians is a reminder that God’s Word is what it is. The human
person is entwined with the life of God regardless of what kind of
life it is or how it began. Is God’s Word easy? No.
Corinth was a port city and had a reputation of being a rather loose
city, especially in its sexual practices. The fledgling Christian
community of Corinth was part of the culture and partook of all the
practices that the popular culture excused. They, along with many
other portside inhabitants, also adopted sexual license. Paul dared
to question their behavior, something they did not like any more
than do we when someone challenges our behavior. Paul’s
admonition to the Corinthians is the same for us: we are to rise
above our culture. We are to make it better by our words and our
example. Anyone who is a parent knows how hard it is to teach
this, as the constant refrain in a house with children is, “But
everyone else is!” Parents have to stand tough for the sake of their
children’s future; we have to stand tough for the sake of our
salvation.
Like watching people in the mall, John the Baptist pointed Jesus
out to Andrew and his companion. The Gospel doesn’t really say
the statement was directed to the
men. It could easily have been a
remark made by John to no one in
particular, yet it reveals what he
thought of Jesus. The two disciples
clearly heard the statement, and,
curiosity aroused, they followed
Jesus. What we must not fail to
notice is that Jesus did not wait for
them to catch up. Instead, He
stopped and turned to them and
initiated a relationship, “What are
you looking for?”
This question should remain with us
through the rest of our year: “What
are you looking for?” Indeed, what
are we looking for? Why have we
come here? The initial response of
Andrew and the other disciple of
John the Baptist was, on one level, a
superficial response made by
someone who doesn’t quite know
LOOKING FOR
what to say: “Where are you
staying?” On another level, it is a question with great depth:
“Where can we find you, Jesus?” Two men went to see where Jesus
lived, but they were not really looking for a house. They were
searching for the core of Jesus, where His heart resided. One listened
and followed Jesus. One went home.
?
This Thursday, January 22, is a Day of Prayer and Penance for Life. It
is a good time for us to ponder life, its meaning, and its need for
protection. It is a good time to review our faith based on the Word
of God and how it guides—or doesn’t guide—our positions on
issues affecting human life. Some will listen and follow. Others
will not.
