Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time
January 29th, 2006
Today we are summoned from our homes by the Holy Spirit to offer praise to our God. Today's liturgy reminds us to sing joyfully to the Lord, for our God is a gentle shepard who guides the flock with love and care. Let us open our hearts to receive God's living word, which has the power to transform us and give us life.
Today we are given a glimpse of the power of the word of God. In the Gospel, Jesus' words drive out unclean spirits. That same word, the living word of God, is proclaimed in this assembly of faith. That word has the power to turn us away from sin and into the loving embrace of our forgiving God. Let us be attentive to God's saving word.
Please remember in prayer the repose of the souls of Antonina Joiner, Dorothy Larrick and Delores Nicholson who passed away recently. May they rest in the arms of their creator.
Liturgical Publications, the company that prints the church bulletin, will have an Advertising Representative in Junction City on Monday, January 30th. He will be soliciting advertisement for the back of our bulletin. These ads pay for the bulletin. The ads would be helpful for your business and well as helping the church. We would also ask our parishioners to patronize those businesses.
Congratulations to the children who received the Sacrament of Reconciliation for the first time on Saturday, January 21st, 2006.
A special thank you to the Catechist (teachers) Rosemay Rapp and Deb Chaudary.
