St. Mary’s Parish Mission Statement:
We are a Catholic community of believers, rich in tradition and growing in diversity. We provide a barrier free environment in which parishioners of all ages and cultures share the same faith, theology, sacramental and liturgical celebrations, instruction and other social and spiritual events. This enables us to connect with the world in which we live by proclaiming the Gospel through our actions, words and prayers.

Attention All Women of the Parish! A “Second Sunday Fellowship” ladies’ group has formed that meets the second Sunday of each month after CCD at the Café on Broadway.

We are also getting ready to order the Lenten devotional “Here, Too,” published by the online Catholic women’s community “Blessed is She (BIS)” (blessedisshe.net). In this daily devo-tional, which only takes minutes a day to par-ticipate, is included: re-discovery of God in all the usual and unusual places and times of our lives (desert, home, road, storms, mountain, garden, tomb); two personal essays a week div-ing into this theme; three days of Sacred Scrip-ture with self-reflection questions; praying through the Psalms; and additional journal space as well. The devotionals are $25 but please don’t let cost prevent your purchase, as we can gather funds to assist!

Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time What does it mean to be salt and light? If we listen carefully to Jesus’ words, we gain some direction. To be salt means to bring taste, zest, and joy to life. We are asked to liven things up a bit by allowing the joy of our faith to spill over into the lives of others. Only a sincere and deep rela-tionship with God can freshen up humanity and set it on proper course. To be light means that our faith must translate into ac-tion so that we can be Christ for others and extend the same arm of mercy and compassion that Christ did. Our acts of pi-ety, then, cannot be directed solely at our-selves. Prayer is never about self-benefit but must always be directed toward union with God, deepening our relationships with one another and learning how to be ef-fective stewards of the beautiful universe God has entrusted to our care. The Master gives us wise direction in terms of how we can best become the salt and light he desires. Listen carefully to the Beatitudes. Think about the oppression and alienation that exists in our world, the vio-lence and prejudice, the anger and the hatred, the fear and the shame. All of these things require action. The poor need food, housing, and clothes. Hatred must be replaced by love. Retaliation and vio-lence by forgiveness. Our thoughts and speech can become more like Christ. We can change and continue to change. Blessed John Henry Cardinal Newman said, “To live is to change and to be per-fect is to have changed often.” But it doesn’t end with just offering the bandages needed to heal wounds. It must go deeper. We must ask ourselves what has happened that we have found ourselves in this place with these wounds and divisions. What are their causes? To-gether we must address these systemic problems, politically and spiritually, and face the truth. Only then will we truly be salt and light. But then again, we may not like what the light shows us.
