January 11th “The Baptism of the Lord”
John the Baptist appeared in the desert proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins.
People of the whole Judean countryside and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem were going out to him and were
being baptized by him in the Jordan River as they acknowledged their sins. John was clothed in camel’s hair,
with a leather belt around his waist. He fed on locusts and wild honey. And this is what he proclaimed: “One
mightier than I is coming after me. I am not worthy to stoop and loosen the thongs of his sandals. I have
baptized you with water; he will baptize you with the holy Spirit.”
The Baptism of Jesus. It happened in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized in
the Jordan by John. On coming up out of the water he saw the heavens being torn open and the Spirit, like a
dove, descending upon him. And a voice came from the heavens, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well
pleased.” Mark 1 4-11

THE CHANGE TO K-5
Our first Sunday starting 15 minutes early was fun. We
all commiserated the early start! However some of our
children did not find it fun at all. Entering the church
while fellow parishioners enter was most confusing to
our little ones. The Church looked different to them.
This can be a good thing, we can teach to the moment.
Please help your child understand this change, and
some parents may want to wait for their child by the
font for a few Sunday’s.
If you are picking your child up and not attending
the Mass you are enrolled in, PLEASE wait out side the
door nearest the drinking fountain and sign your child
out.
His Peace be with you,

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
In the 1560s, the Council of Trent attempted to standardize the widely variant customs for the pastoral care of
the sick and dying. We had inherited a practice called “extreme unction,” from the Latin words meaning anointing at the point of death. The deeper tradition, however, is about the prayer of faith that will heal and restore
the sick person, and is straight from the Letter of James. The Fathers went back to the beginning, and while not
discarding the “extreme unction” name, made a plea for the proper use of this sacrament. As soon as a person is
in danger of death from sickness or old age, they reasoned, the time for the sacrament had already arrived.
As a result of this desire, the next ritual text for anointing contained an innovation: a rite for visiting
the sick that included readings from scripture, psalms, and prayers. Old customs fade slowly, however, and the
quality of pastoral care languished for centuries while people delayed the celebration of a consoling and effective sacrament, sometimes missing the opportunity completely. A priest ministering to a dying and unconscious
patient alone in a room has never been the desire of the Church. Our tradition is far too rich for this sacrament
to be celebrated in such a diminished and ungenerous manner.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
¿Recuerdas tu bautismo? Permítanme compartir mi testimonio. No recuerdo los eventos del día en que
me bautizaron, pero tengo años recordando que, gracias a Dios y mis padres, estoy bautizado. Trato de vivir mi
vida recordando mi bautismo, buscando que mi comportamiento sea digno de una persona bautizada.
Fui bautizado al mes de haber nacido, y confirmado cuando tenía sólo un añito (eran otros tiempos).
Hice mi primera (y no última) comunión a los siete años. Continuaba asistiendo a las clases de catecismo
(doctrina), no obstante, cuando cumplí 17 años, sentí que algo me faltaba. Mis amigos protestantes me invitaban a sus Iglesias, pero yo buscaba a Dios en mi Iglesia católica. Un día, gracias al grupo carismático recibí el
bautismo en el Espíritu Santo y desde ese momento mi vida cambió. Ahora sé que el Espíritu lo había recibido
en mi Bautismo, Confirmación y Primera Comunión, lo único que debía hacer era permitirle actuar en mi vida.
Creo que en la vida de muchos cristianos, el Espíritu Santo sigue esperando que le den permiso de actuar. Y tú,
¿qué esperas? Pídele al Espíritu que se mueva en tí y vive tu Bautismo.
Reflecting on God’s Word
This is one of the key moments in the life of Jesus. Up north
in his hometown of Nazareth he must have heard about John.
At some point an inner voice must have said, “Go south, go
to the desert. Go listen to this preacher John.”
When he came to the desert, he may have stood in a long line
before that moment came when he entered the water and
John baptized him. Mark gives us only the briefest account of
their meeting, but does present John as expecting someone
mightier than he who would baptize with the Holy Spirit.
It is this same Holy Spirit who came down on Jesus as he was
coming out of the water. At that moment, the heavens were
torn open, heaven reached down to touch the Galilean, and
the Spirit descended like a dove. Have you ever seen a gull
descend to snatch a fish or a hawk swoop down to seize its
prey? By contrast, the image of a descending dove is one of
beauty and grace, of gentle alighting.
The words do not announce Jesus to others, as in Matthew’s
account, but they are spoken only to him: “You are my
beloved Son; with you I am well pleased” (1:11), echoing the
words the Lord speaks in the first song of the Servant in the
book of Isaiah.
The descent of the dove did not mean an easy life for Jesus,
but God had penetrated his being in a way that would then
drive him into the desert to begin his mission of confronting
the powers of sin and death. This gentle dove came—and
continues to come—with a mighty power.
