Pro-Life Notes “It is not only a personal but a social concern which we must all foster: a concern to make unconditional respect for human life the foundation of a renewed society.” —Pope St. John Paul II, The Gospel of Life (Evangelium Vitae, no. 77) 1995 Libreria Editrice Vaticana. Used with permission. February 1, 2015 4th Sunday in Ordinary Time Deuteronomy 18:15-20 Psalm 95 1 Cor 7:32-35 Mark 1:14-20 In Jesus’ first to a synagogue in Mark’s Gospel, we encounter a key theme in this evangelist’s writing: Jesus’ authority. This is evidenced both in his words — “the people were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as one having authority” (v 22) — and in the exorcism of the unclean spirit. Unlike other exorcists of his day, who used many words while performing exorcisms, Jesus commands the unclean spirit with just two words in the Greek text, and it leaves. The brevity of his command illustrates his power over the spirit. In the Book of Deuteronomy, Moses promises the people that in the future God will send “a prophet like me” (v 15) to lead the people. This desire for an intermediary between the LORD and the people is based on their experience of God’s great power on Mount Sinai, mediated through Moses. The people believe that to experience God face to face is to risk death. God promises to “raise up for them a prophet … [who] shall tell them all that I command” (v 18). Over the centuries, this prophetic figure came to be understood as the longed-for Messiah. Paul continues to advise the Corinthians with the expectation of Christ’s imminent second coming, as we heard last week. His advice to the unmarried, that they should refrain from marrying, is based on the idea that one who is unmarried can dedicate more time to serving the Lord. If the Lord’s return is near, then focusing on the things of God is advisable. Though we do not expect Jesus’s return soon, we still can follow Paul’s advice by making sure our lives have a sense of balance between worldly affairs and the things of God. For reflection: In what ways have I experienced Jesus’ authority? Have I ever experienced God’s liberating power in my life or in the life of another? To make Ashes For Ash Wednesday February 18, 2015 If you have any old palms from last Palm Sunday, please bring them to church to be burnt for Ash Wednesday. A basket will be placed by the Processional Cross in the Gathering Area for the palm. In the Gospel today we read that because Jesus spoke with authority his reputation spread throughout the surrounding region os 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? URGENT!!!! Our St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry needs the following items: toiletries, paper products, (toilet tissue and paper towels). If you can donate any of these items, please deposit them in the bins provided in the gathering area.. THANK YOU!!! Volunteers are needed to help handle the numerous requests for assistance that come into the St. Vincent de Paul Society. If you can donate some time to assist in this ministry, please call the parish office at 770-941-2807. February is the month of Love and the beginning of Lent! February is the month of Love when people show their Love for each other by celebrating Valentines (Feb. 14) by giving gifts and treating others to all sorts of entertainment. Then just a few days later we begin the Season of Lent which begins with Ash Wednesday (Feb. 18). It is fitting that we celebrate a holiday devoted to Love just before we celebrate the passion and death of Jesus during Lent in the greatest Love Story ever told. We go out of our way to show our love for other people for Valentine, but what extra effort do we do to show our Love in return for the LOVE that Jesus showed us in His suffering and finally His death for the LOVE HE HAS FOR EACH OF US! A good way to show your Love for Jesus is to come by and pay a visit to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament on Friday, February 6, 2015 following the 8:00AM Mass and ending with Reposition at 7:00PM. He waits for your visit, so bring a relative or friend. NOTE: If you would like to commit to a particular time monthly or have any questions, please call Herb Blanchard at 678-945-7585or e-mail at [email protected].

The 2015 Archbishops Annual Appeal is now underway. You should be receiving a letter from archbishop Gregory asking for a pledge to the Archbishop’s Annual Appeal. The Appeal funds the essential ministries of the Church in our archdiocese — ministries that, in many cases are of service to our parish. The theme of the Appeal this year is, ALL THIS IS DO FOR THE SAKE OF THE GOSPEL.” 2015 Franciscan Seminary Collection Each year parishes like St. John Vianney, staffed by the Conventual Franciscan Friars of Our Lady of the Angels Province are asked to offer their prayers and financial support for the formation and education of our seminarians; friars preparing for a life in ministry and priesthood. Next weekend, February 7-8, the second collection is intended for that purpose; to help the friars prepare these men for their future life of service.
