EPIPHANY OF THE LORD

First Reading: Isaiah 60:1-6 Isaiah speaks poetically of the coming of the Lord. He describes how “darkness covers the earth” but light and glory appear over God’s chosen people.

Second Reading: Ephesians 3:2-3a, 5-6 Paul tells the Ephesians that the Jews and Gentiles are now co-heirs of the promises God has made. He explains that both groups are now members of one body through Jesus Christ.

Gospel: Matthew 2:1-12 After Jesus’ birth, three astrologers from the east came to Jerusalem and inquired about the newborn king of the Jews. King Herod became greatly angered, and asked the astrologers to bring him more information about the child once they had found him, so that he too could pay homage to the infant. However, Herod’s true plan was to kill Jesus. The wise men were warned in a dream not to return to him and they took a different route to return home.

A Special Thank You! We have all noted with pleasure the beautiful and appropriate manner in which our Church has been decorated for this festive season, and we wish to publicly acknowledge and thank Erin McAndrew for her work. For many years Erin has graced our Church with her professional decorating skills (both Christmas and Easter), quietly laboring behind the scenes to design her truly unique floral arrangements, and then preparing the Church with her family's help. Thank You, Erin, for generously sharing your time and talents with the HNM parish family and adding so much to our special liturgies.

Next week our special collection supports the Catholic Communication Campaign. This campaign connects people with Christ and builds Catholic communities in the United States and developing countries using the internet, television, radio, and print media. Half of the money collected remains here in the Archdiocese of New York to fund local communications efforts. Your support helps spread the Gospel message! To learn more, visit www.usccb.org/ccc
