SUNDAY, JANUARY 31, 2021
Penitential Act
Moses spoke to all the people, saying: “A prophet like
me will the LORD, your God, raise up for you from
among your own kin; to him you shall listen. This is
exactly what you requested of the LORD, your God, at
Horeb on the day of the assembly, when you said, ‘Let
us not again hear the voice of the LORD, our God, nor
see this great fire any more, lest we die.’ And the LORD
said to me, ‘This was well said. I will raise up for them a
prophet like you from among their kin, and will put my
words into his mouth; he shall tell them all that I command
him. Whoever will not listen to my words which he
speaks in my name, I myself will make him answer for
it. But if a prophet presumes to speak in my name an
oracle that I have not commanded him to speak, or
speaks in the name of other gods, he shall die.’”
Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 95
Brothers and sisters:
I should like you to be free of anxieties. An unmarried
man is anxious about the things of the Lord, how he
may please the Lord. But a married man is anxious
about the things of the world, how he may please his
wife, and he is divided. An unmarried woman or a virgin
is anxious about the things of the Lord, so that she may
be holy in both body and spirit. A married woman, on
the other hand, is anxious about the things of the world,
how she may please her husband. I am telling you this
for your own benefit, not to impose a restraint upon
you, but for the sake of propriety and adherence to the
Lord without distraction.
Gospel Acclamation
The people who sit in darkness have seen a great light;
on those dwelling in a land overshadowed by death,
light has arisen.
Then they came to Capernaum, and on the Sabbath Jesus
entered the synagogue and taught. The people were
astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as one
having authority and not as the scribes. In their
synagogue was a man with an unclean spirit; he cried
out, “What have you to do with us, Jesus of Nazareth?
Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—
the Holy One of God!” Jesus rebuked him and said,
“Quiet! Come out of him!” The unclean spirit convulsed
him and with a loud cry came out of him. All were
amazed and asked one another, “What is this? A
new teaching with authority. He commands even the
unclean spirits and they obey him.” His fame spread
everywhere throughout the whole region of Galilee.

Live The Liturgy—Inspirations For The Week
Most of us are not trail blazers. Throughout
history though, there have been many
folks who tirelessly and persistently
pursued the promptings of their hearts
without giving any care to what others
thought or trends dictated. Jesus is one
of them. St. Teresa of Calcutta and
St. Francis of Assisi are examples of others.
The rest of us are people who take a more
measured look at things, want to test the
waters, and take our time choosing what
path or person to follow. We need credible
witnesses of faith. We need the Moses
people in our lives to show us by word
and deed who God is and what integrity
and a purpose-driven life looks like.
They are the pointers to truth, who even
though they struggle themselves, seem
to embody an unspoken timeless wisdom
that just sounds and feels right. Jesus
taught with this same type of authority
and caught the attention of the greatest
of skeptics. They were astonished. Even
though we need our human prophets we
can also be somewhat prophetic ourselves
by putting integrity and conviction behind
our embrace of the Gospel. Perhaps
much to our surprise, we all have the
power to be a credible witness. Are you
willing to give it a try?
St. Blaise and the Blessing of Throats
St. Veronica will offer Blessing of the Throats on February 3 after the morning Mass.
"Through the intercession of St. Blaise, bishop and martyr, may God deliver you from
every disease of the throat and from every other illness: In the name of the Father, and of
the Son, and of the Holy Spirit" (Book of Blessings #1633)

Children’s Lectionary Link
This week we are celebrating the Fourth Sunday of Ordinary
Time. In our Gospel today we learn that Jesus would go into
the synagogue (a place of prayer and learning for the Jews).
He would read the Scriptures and explain them to the
crowd. People were amazed because His preaching was so
different – He spoke with authority. He also commanded an
evil spirit (harmful) to leave a man. Jesus has authority over
all creation.

of Jesus this week?
1. The three days of prayer traditionally celebrated on the
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday before Ascension Thursday
are called?
(d) Tempera Days

4. Which of these IS NOT one of the Fruits of the Holy Spirit?

5. The requirement of abstinence during Lent begins at age
14 and ends?
(a) Age 60 (b) Age 65(c) Age 70 (d) No age limit
Fun Facts for Faithful Kids
February is the shortest month of the year. It has only 28
days. So get going and do God’s work. You only have a few
short weeks.
February 2 is the feast of the Presentation of the Lord. On
this day, Mary and Joseph brought the newborn baby Jesus
to the Temple to be presented to God and to receive special
blessings. This custom is remembered in some churches by
blessing the candles. That is why it is sometimes called
Candlemas Day

Embracing Change in Christ
It’s officially one month since we popped the champagne,
toasted 2021 and wrote down a list of resolutions. This is usu-
ally the time when we start to take a good, hard look in the
mirror to assess what we have done — or have not done —
with the first month of this brand-new year.
New years can be scary, can’t they? Full of promise, sure, but
also full of room for failure. Full of space for our old baggage,
old fears and the continuation of old mistakes.
The same can be said of Christ, and the new life he offers us,
if we are brave enough to accept it. Opportunities like that
can be intimidating. In that moment, we might find ourselves
like the man with the unclean spirit crying out: “What have
you to do with me, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us?”
Jesus is a comforter of the afflicted; he is a consoling figure,
but he is also a challenging one. Sometimes we have grown
attached to our afflictions. The idea of correcting bad habits
or forming new ones is frankly terrifying to us. We have a
voice deep inside who sees Christ and his invitation to
repentance, and it cries out in fear: “I know who you are!”
When we live in the present, disavowing the baggage of the
past or fear of the future, we submit ourselves to the promise
of redemption. Let us be brave everyday stewards and invite
Christ’s healing power into our lives. We won’t regret it —
I’m sure the demoniac never did. - Tracy Earl Welliver, MTS@lpi

Update on Property Tax Exemption Appeal
The appeal of the loss of the property tax exemption for the
STAA property has been dropped on the advice of legal
counsel. This means that the parish is faced with a 2020 property
tax bill payable in 2021 approaching $20,000. Your parish
finance council is pursuing an amendment to the existing
parish services agreement with Seton, which operates STAA,
that will have Seton pay the annual property tax bill assessed
on the STAA property. The parish finance council is also
pursuing having Seton reimburse the parish for the 2019
property tax bill payable in 2020, which has already been
paid in full. Jim Klajbor, Chairperson, Parish Finance Council

Children’s Lectionary Link
This week we are celebrating the Fourth Sunday of Ordinary
Time. In our Gospel today we learn that Jesus would go into
the synagogue (a place of prayer and learning for the Jews).
He would read the Scriptures and explain them to the
crowd. People were amazed because His preaching was so
different – He spoke with authority. He also commanded an
evil spirit (harmful) to leave a man. Jesus has authority over
all creation.

of Jesus this week?
1. The three days of prayer traditionally celebrated on the
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday before Ascension Thursday

Fun Facts for Faithful Kids
February is the shortest month of the year. It has only 28
days. So get going and do God’s work. You only have a few
short weeks.
February 2 is the feast of the Presentation of the Lord. On
this day, Mary and Joseph brought the newborn baby Jesus
to the Temple to be presented to God and to receive special
blessings. This custom is remembered in some churches by
blessing the candles. That is why it is sometimes called
Candlemas Day

Embracing Change in Christ
It’s officially one month since we popped the champagne,
toasted 2021 and wrote down a list of resolutions. This is usu-
ally the time when we start to take a good, hard look in the
mirror to assess what we have done — or have not done —
with the first month of this brand-new year.
New years can be scary, can’t they? Full of promise, sure, but
also full of room for failure. Full of space for our old baggage,
old fears and the continuation of old mistakes.
The same can be said of Christ, and the new life he offers us,
if we are brave enough to accept it. Opportunities like that
can be intimidating. In that moment, we might find ourselves
like the man with the unclean spirit crying out: “What have
you to do with me, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us?”
Jesus is a comforter of the afflicted; he is a consoling figure,
but he is also a challenging one. Sometimes we have grown
attached to our afflictions. The idea of correcting bad habits
or forming new ones is frankly terrifying to us. We have a
voice deep inside who sees Christ and his invitation to
repentance, and it cries out in fear: “I know who you are!”
When we live in the present, disavowing the baggage of the
past or fear of the future, we submit ourselves to the promise
of redemption. Let us be brave everyday stewards and invite
Christ’s healing power into our lives. We won’t regret it —
I’m sure the demoniac never did. - Tracy Earl Welliver, MTS@lpi

Update on Property Tax Exemption Appeal
The appeal of the loss of the property tax exemption for the
STAA property has been dropped on the advice of legal
counsel. This means that the parish is faced with a 2020 property
tax bill payable in 2021 approaching $20,000. Your parish
finance council is pursuing an amendment to the existing
parish services agreement with Seton, which operates STAA,
that will have Seton pay the annual property tax bill assessed
on the STAA property. The parish finance council is also
pursuing having Seton reimburse the parish for the 2019
property tax bill payable in 2020, which has already been
paid in full. Jim Klajbor, Chairperson, Parish Finance Council
