Church Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time Page Three St. Vincent de Paul Society - Outreach Office Next Food Pantry: February 7th 9:30AM-11AM In the Gospel today we read that because Jesus spoke with authority his reputation spread throughout the surrounding region of Galilee. As his disciples, we can also speak with authority when we put our faith into actions by helping the poor and suffering. Have you considered answering the call to serve the poor by joining the Society of St. Vincent de Paul? Please contact us through the Outreach Office. In honor of the Feast of St. Blaise, Tuesday, February 3rd, blessing of throats will take place at the 8:00AM Mass. Friday, February 6th 8:30AM - 10:00PM Parish Center Chapel Spend time in silent prayer before the Blessed Sacrament. During the Lenten season, beginning Ash Wednesday, February 18th, there will be an additional weekday Mass, Monday through Friday, at 12:15PM. Oh God of mercy, we beg You now to protect in a special way those who are fighting for us and for the country we love. Bless them and take care of them. Give them strength. Give them comfort. Touch them with Your gentle hand and let them know that You are near them. Hasten the day, dear Lord, when we may all enjoy the blessings of peace once more. Please pray for members of our U.S. Military serving in Iraq and Afghanistan, and especiall, our parishioners: Christopher Blaha, Christopher Fellini, Brian Knudsen, Michael Kohan and Sean Penny. May God bless them, protect them and bring them home safe! Next Saturday at the 5PM Mass we will recognize our 4th grade students and their Catechists (Joyce Chaisson, Telia Malwitz and Linda Rovegno). This week during class our 4th grade students will prepare their class banner followed by pizza and dessert in anticipated celebration of their special Mass. As always, we expect all 4th grade students and their families to be present at this Mass. Those who wish to be greeters at the doors of the church should arrive at 4:45PM. Please plan to join us and show our young people your support. Attendance at Mass is not only a Commandment but also a necessity for Faith Formation. One hour of Religious Education a week is simply NOT ENOUGH to keep the light of Christ burning within our children. Attending the 5PM Family Mass is another way to gain instruction in our faith. At this Mass the children are called up into the sanctuary by the priest, just before the first reading. After a brief prayer/blessing the children are then dismissed into the sacristy with a teacher and two assistants. The children listen to the reading of the day from a children's lectionary. The readings are then discussed in a kid-friendly way with active participation which could include role playing and/or question and answer. They leave each week happy and with more knowledge of their faith then they walked in with. It is a wonderful supplement to the Religious Education program and it includes obeying the 3rd Commandment! Why not make this a New Year's Resolution?? - attending Family Mass with my children every week??? once a month?? more often then we do now??? It will improve your life and the lives of your children. We hope to see you soon. 421 St. Aloysius R. C.
