Time to Get Your Bibles Out For Our
Lenten Bible Study of the Minor Prophets!
When many of us think about Bible Study, the books of
the 12 Minor Prophets do not immediately jump into our

minds. Most of us are more comfortable in the New Testament or the more well-known stories of the Major Prophets. But the Minor Prophets, which are minor only in the
length of their books, hold some interesting prophesies of
Jesus’ coming and nature along with concepts that we can
see play out over and over in history. Can we take what
we learn from history to better our own lives? Can we
take it to others to better our church, our town, our state,
our country? Join us as we explore these men of God and
see what we can learn together.
The class will be facilitated by Dianne Ell, an Incarnation
parishioner who teaches Religious Ed and is involved with
the Justice and Peace Ministry, Women's Guild, Eucharistic Ministry and the Sunday evening choir. Dianne has a
BA in Christian Church Ministry and is a Life/Health
Coach specializing in families with Autistic and learning
disabled children.
The classes will meet Wednesdays, February 25, March 4,
11 & 18. There will be two class times. We will meet at
1:00 PM in the Parish Center, or at 7:00 PM, immediately
following the Lenten Soup Suppers in room B102.
The first class will be on Hosea. Please try to read this
short book before the class. If you have any questions or
need any additional information, contact Dcn Dominic at
[email protected] or 818/627-5595.

Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Incarnation Catholic Church
Together in Mission 2015
“Be imitators of me…” 1 Corinthians 11
In today’s readings, we are told, “He tells the number of
the stars; he calls each by name.” Though we are many,
we are one Church. God calls each of us by name to offer
our time, talents, and treasure to our fellow brothers and
sisters in Christ. Everything we have is a gift from God,
which we are called upon to share. When we give generously, our life is most like His.
You are the one who can provide parishes and schools
with the resources they need. Your gift can be the one
that allows a priest to serve communities in need. It can
help a school make essential repairs for the safety of their
students. It can enable parishioners to have a place to
celebrate Mass.
The strength of the Church is not in numbers, but in love.
Your contribution, large or small, is the one that matters!
Those of you who have supported Together in Mission in
the past three years will be mailed a letter and a pledge
card from the Together in Mission office. Please bring
your pledge card with you next weekend as we make our
commitment to this worthy cause. Those of you who
have not received a pledge card in the mail will be given
a card to fill out at Mass, during the in-pew process for
the collection of donation and pledges to this year’s appeal.
Over the next week, please prayerfully consider what you
feel you can give to support this worthy cause.
Incarnation 2015 Goal: $86,900!

2010 W Olive Ave. in Burbank. The topic is Living Every
Day With Passion & Purpose with Matthew Kelly and

Incarnation's Confirmation Process implemented Matthew
Kelly's program, so this is not only a great opportunity for
