CONVERSION
Here am I, Lord;
I come to do your will
Second Reading: 1 Corinthians 6:13-15, 17-20
Paul tells us that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, and we
must use them, not for sin, but for the glory of God.
Gospel Acclamation:
Alleluia, Alleluia!
We have found the Messiah:
Jesus Christ, who brings us truth and grace.
Alleluia!
Gospel: John 1:35-42
Here we have John’s account of the call of the first disciples.
Reflection
In the Gospel we will hear Jesus say to his first two disciples, ‘Come
and see.’ They accepted his invitation and had an encounter with
him which changed their lives. Each time we celebrate the Eucharist
we have an opportunity to encounter the Lord.
Jesus is the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. Let
us confess our sins with humility, confident of his mercy.

SYNOD on the Family
Questionnaire
Reflection
The second Sunday of Ordinary time respects an old
liturgical theme of celebrating different epiphanies or
manifestations of Jesus. John shows us a gradual
recognition of who Jesus is – through the testimony of
John the Baptist and the confession of the first disciples.
Here, John the Baptist calls Jesus ‘the Lamb of God,’ and
Andrew calls him ‘the Messiah’.
6.30am Morning Mass
The 6.30am Morning Mass at St Agatha’s will resume
on Tuesday 27th January, 2015.
SRE Ministry ( Catechists required)
Would you like to respond to the call of Jesus to build
His Church in an important ministry of sowing the seed
of faith to children in our state schools? I will be holding
a recruitment drive on the weekend of 17th/18th January
please call Tina on 94841427 if you are interested in
contributing to this ministry.
Pope Francis and members of the Synod on the family
invite you to offer your opinions and feedback on the
questionnaire which is available at the following site:
https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/family-synod-2015
Official Prayer to the Holy Family for the Synod
Jesus, Mary and Joseph,
in you we contemplate
The splendour of true love,
to you we turn with trust.
Holy Family of Nazareth,
grant that our families too
may be places of communion and prayer,
authentic schools of the Gospel
and small domestic Churches.
Holy Family of Nazareth,
may families never again
experience violence, rejection and division:
may all who have been hurt or scandalized
find ready comfort and healing.
Holy Family of Nazareth,
may the approaching Sunod of Bishops
make us once more mindful
of the sacredness and inviolability of the family,
and its beauty in God’s plan.
We Are One but We are Many
