Catholic Stoughton Stoughton - The Catholic Parishes Of Stoughton
The
Catholic
Parishes of
Stoughton
We are a
collaborative of two
Roman Catholic
parishes of the
Archdiocese of
Boston serving the
faith community of
our town. We are
deeply committed
to our Lord Jesus
Christ who is the
source of all our
faith, hope,
strength, and love.
Please joining us

Massachusetts
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.

FOURTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
FEBRUARY 1, 2015
Message from the Clergy
To the good people of Immaculate Conception and St. James Parishes:
May the peace of Jesus Christ be with you!
This week marks the inauguration of our new "combined" bulletin for the Catholic parishes of Stoughton.
I want to start by thanking Erika Thornton, B. J. Gage, Paula Myers, Jen Jones and all the folks who have
been working so hard on putting it together. I think you will agree with me that they have done a
wonderful job. It's my hope that this new format will keep everyone up-to-date on what is happening
both within the individual parishes and throughout the collaborative as well.
You will notice a few new features. Fr. Derek, Fr. Eduardo, Deacon Pat, and I will be using this spot each
week (on a rotating basis) to share things with you; our thoughts on that week's readings, perhaps, or on
new developments at the parishes. We have also perforated the middle pages to make it easier for you to
tear out certain sections you might like to post on your refrigerator, say, or carry around with you.
Contact information and weekly offertory figures have been moved to the back. The bulletin will be the
current size -- 8 pages, not counting inserts -- for the near future. We hope to expand in the coming
months, as well as add more color and photographs. The new bulletin is a work-in-progress, so please be
patient! Please know, too, that your feedback is welcome.
My friends, we have been so blessed, haven't we, with such strong communities of faith. Together, we are
even stronger. I see this new bulletin as but another sign of the unity we will continue to foster here in
Stoughton. It is our love of the Lord that unites us and there is nothing stronger than that. May He
continue to bless our efforts.
Peace,
~ Fr. Joe
BLESSING OF THE THROATS
St. Blaise, according to legend, saved a boy
who was near death from choking.
Because of this, the blessing of throats has
become associated with this saint. Blessings will take
place during all Masses on Tuesday, February 3rd.
St. James
7:00 a.m.
Immaculate Conception
9:00 a.m. & 7:00 p.m. (English)
Take care, brothers, that none of you
may have an evil and unfaithful heart,
so as to forsake the living God.
Encourage yourselves daily while it is still “today,”
so that none of you may grow hardened by
the deceit of sin.
A Closer Look at the Readings
Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time
That Jesus didn’t teach like the scribes was very significant.
After all, it was the scribes who taught the scriptures. They
were the ones who knew the religious doctrine and taught
it to the people. And though frequently criticized in the
Gospels, they weren’t bad people by definition.
But Jesus was a teacher of a different sort altogether. It was
as though he didn’t need to refer to the scriptures or to
the teaching of anyone else at all. He had the authority
himself. Imagine the unusual impression he must have
made on his listeners!
It has been suggested that Jesus was reputed to teach “with
authority” because the crowds instantly recognized the
truth of what he said. Why? Because he spoke the truth
that was already in their hearts.
~ Hebrews 3:12-13

Parish Activities
As an outreach program we would
like to start a Prayer and
Communion Service for the benefit
of our fellow Catholics who reside
at The Arbors, an assisted living
and residential community located at 2121 Central
Street. This is right next to D'Angelo's Sandwich
Shop near Cobb Corner. There are 20 residents
who would like to share their faith with you and
you can share you faith with them.
The time commitment would be one hour a
month every 2nd Sunday. Members from both
parishes are welcome. Being a trained Eucharist
Minister is a requirement and the cost is nothing
but your time; and the rewards are heavenly.
Thank you in advance for your time and service
to God. Please contact Paula at 781-344-2073 /
[email protected] if you are interested.
The most treasured and sacred moments of our lives are
those filled with the spirit of love. The greater the
measure of our love, the greater is our joy. In the end,
the development of such love is the true measure
of success in life.
~ Joseph B. Wirthlin
St. Anthony’s Free Market
Updates
St. Anthony’s Free Market is open every
Friday from 9:00 a.m. to Noon, and the
2nd Thursday of the month 5:00 – 6:00 p.m.
For more information, please call Christine
at 781-341-0611 / [email protected]
We thank you very much for your generosity to our food
pantry. Donations of nonperishable food can be left on
the porch of our Parish Center (Religious Education
Building), 2 Park Avenue, Stoughton, Monday - Thursday
from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. You may also call Peg
Carbone at 508-889-1385 and she will pick up food

Thank you from St Anthony's Free Market to the
Stoughton Clergy Association for the Martin Luther

our neighbors is a great community event. Special thanks
to the First United Methodist Church and Pastor Rebecca
Cho for hosting this worthwhile project. God Bless us all.

St. Anthony’s Free Market
Sacred Vesture Fund
After many years of good service, we are
looking to replace another item of our
sacred vesture. We are in need of new
altar server albs.
An alb is a long white garment which
flow from the shoulders to the ankles. The word alb
means “white.” The spiritual purpose reminds the wearer
of their baptism, signifying freedom from sin, purity of
new life, and Christian dignity.
Immaculate Conception is accepting donations for new
server albs. These vestments will serve our parish
community well by complimenting the liturgical tone of
our ceremonies and celebrations.
Donations can be made in memoriam if desired. Please
speak to Barbara after Mass or call the parish office if you
are interested in contributing to this important effort.
Bring Your Palms to Church:
All year the palms we received last Palm Sunday have stayed
with us, aging and reminding us to be more mindful of our
union with Christ. Now we ask you to return your palms to the
parish to be burnt. The little dry palm fronts carry our whole
year’s journey with all its twists and turns. The burning
symbolically offers the past year into the Lord’s hands and the
ashes are given back to us on Ash Wednesday in the form of a
smudge on our forehead. A sign that the Lord forgives and
heals and works with us to transforms our lives a new.
There will be baskets for your palms at all the entrances of the
church.
Do You Know A Home Bound Parishioner?
Because we are human, we get sick. Sometimes, it’s just a cold.
Many times it’s an illness that causes us or one of our loved
ones to find getting to Church difficult or not possible. When
such events take place, please let us know. Arrangements can
be made to schedule a visit from a volunteer Minister of Holy
Communion or one of our priests for Anointing of the Sick.
Contact Barbara at the parish office for more information.
Regarding Your Donation Checks:
Your monetary gift to Immaculate Conception and its various
ministries is very much appreciated.
To facilitate your donation being credited appropriately, please
make all checks payable to Immaculate Conception Church and
in the in memo section please indicate your special intention:
Life Teen, St. Anthony’s Free Market, etc. Thank you!

Many Catholics, young and old, face opportunities every
day to share their faith with others but lack the basic
knowledge and confidence to do so. Why Catholic? has
a rich scriptural and catechetical approach that gives a
solid foundation for every Catholic to be an evangelizer.
Why Catholic? is a unique opportunity for our parish
community to reclaim our Catholic identity and make
our faith not only more meaningful, but truly alive!
Groups are now forming for Lent and all are welcome.
A six weeks program will start Monday, February 16th,
7:00 -8:30 p.m. Slots are available in groups that will
meet on Monday or Tuesdays evenings. For more
information, please call Paula at IC at 781-344-2073.
Lent is will soon be here as
Ash Wednesday marks the
beginning of the Lenten season.
Observed by penance, reflection,
and fasting Ash Wednesday prepares us for Christ's
Resurrection on Easter Sunday.
This year Ash Wednesday falls on Wednesday,
February 18th. While it is not a Holy Day of Obligation,
all are encouraged to attend Mass on this day in order
to mark the beginning of the Lenten season.
