Dear Parishioners,
Happy New Year and Happy Feast of the Epiphany!
Although the secular world has put Christmas behind us
and the decorations are already visible for Valentine’s
Day, we here in our churches are still celebrating the joy of
the Christmas Season and no other day, after Christmas
Day, speaks to us more about Christmas than today’s feast
of the Epiphany.
As you all know, the Magi presented their gifts of gold,
frankincense and myrrh to the Christ Child after they made
their long journey from the East following a star. What a
beautiful image this is for all of us, that the Magi had to
make a sacrifice to present their gifts. Often to give a gift
entails making a sacrifice, and your gifts to your parish are a
sacrificial offering to the church, the body of Christ.
To help make this Christmas Season so wonderful here at
Immaculate, many people offered their gifts of time, talent,
and treasure, and sacrificed their time to make an offering
to the Lord.
Many thanks to all who offered their gifts, especially to our
Children’s Choirs and Chancel Choir for their gifts of
their incredible voices and talents. Special thanks to
Preston Dibble, Marcie Alexander, Chris Araya, Joe
Mulford for their long hours of hard work. Thanks to
Kristin Roney and all who volunteered in making our
Breakfast with Santa such a joy filled event. A special
shout out to our Knights of Columbus for cooking the
pancakes, Santa really enjoyed them!
To all our Lectors, Extraordinary Ministers of Holy
Communion, Altar Servers, Cantors, Ushers, and all who
helped in any way, thank you! The giving of your time
and talent is truly appreciated by all.
As we begin this new year of 2016, may God continue to fill
you with his blessings and may he continue to bless our
wonderful parish of the Immaculate Conception.
Sincerely in the Lord,
Fr. Joe

Stewardship Reflection:
The Epiphany of the Lord
—January 3, 2016—
“...the Gentiles are co-heirs, members of the same body, and
co-partners in the promise in Christ Jesus through the Gospel.”
—Ephesians 3:6
Today we celebrate that Christ came to all of us, not just the
Hebrews. He made us all one body with Him. We were all given
different gifts; we all have different yet equally valuable roles to
play in the Body of Christ. Ask God how He wants you to use your
gifts so that we may all “be one” in this Year of Mercy.
We have come to worship the King!

Musical Thanks!
Thank you to all who came out to assist with our Homeless
Sandwich Run on Dec. 13th! For $600 worth of supplies (paid
for by your private donations after Masses a few weeks ago),
the Young Adults were able to coordinate a group of almost 20
volunteers who made over 300 meals that were immediately
delivered to the homeless residents’ of Newark Penn Station.
Each lunch contained a sandwich with almost ½ pound of
meat, snacks, dessert, and a bottled water. We were also able
to use our smartphones and connect some souls in special need
with local Catholic shelters in Newark!
With the colder months ahead, and more funds leftover from
your donations, we’ll be looking to continue this outreach in
the weeks to come. Be on the lookout for the next announcement if you’d like to participate, or feel free to email us at
[email protected] or call/text (703) 434-2512
On behalf of the parish I would like to offer profound thanks to the
nearly 75 parishioners who were part of music ministry on Christmas Eve, representing approximately 55 families of the parish
community!! In the 11 Christmases that I have served this parish,
this is far and away the greatest participation in parish music ministry at any one time. This is in no small part due to the influence of
Kristin Roney, our new Asst. Director of Music who joined the
parish staff last summer! These parishioners, from Kindergarten
up through … ‘older than Kindergarten,’ have spent months in
preparation to add beauty and solemnity to our parish’s Eucharistic
celebration of Christmas. In the name of our parish and of my
name, I say THANK YOU to each and every one of you for making Christmas so beautiful here at Immaculate and I also offer a
large THANK YOU to YOU, the parishioners for your support
and appreciation of our music ministry here at Immaculate. Merry
Christmas and Happy Epiphany! —Preston

A man wakes up after sleeping
under an ADVERTISED blanket
on an ADVERTISED mattress
and pulls off ADVERTISED pajamas
bathes in an ADVERTISED shower
shaves with an ADVERTISED razor
brushes his teeth
with ADVERTISED toothpaste
washes with ADVERTISED soap
puts on ADVERTISED clothes
drinks a cup
of ADVERTISED coffee
drives to work
in an ADVERTISED car
and then . . . .
refuses to ADVERTISE
believing it doesn’t pay.
Later if business is poor
he ADVERTISES it for sale.
