February 2nd, 9th & 16th we will have a 3 Part
Series on Spiritual Warfare with presenter Barbara
Bailey. All 3 meetings will be in the St. Joseph
room from 7-9pm. A brief description of Barbara’s
presentation is below:
In this presentation Barbara will point out the
subtlety of Satan in entering people’s lives and
especially his desire to lead young people away
from God at every opportunity. She will also
present those things that can combat him and
help us draw closer to God in all aspects of our
lives.
It's especially important today to understand
that we are fighting a battle that we must win.
Never before, have Christians been so openly
discriminated against. More Christians were
martyred in the 20th century than through all of
history. The massacres continue today all over
the world and in our own country, Christians are
threatened every day in the workplace, schools
etc. because of their refusal to deny Christ and
His teachings. We know that God will be
victorious, but we need to be prepared on all
fronts to fight the enemy.

STEWARDSHIP
Stewards Follow
“Come after me and I will make you fishers of
men.” - MARK 1:17B
Jesus’ call to “Follow me” is a call to all His
Stewards! Jesus asks us to help Him build his
church on earth by generously sharing all our gifts
of prayer, talent and treasure. Remember, Jesus
calls us to generously develop and share all our
gifts, not just the ones we pick and choose.
FAMILY CORNER
Jon 3:1-5.10, 1 Cor 7:29-31, Mk 1:14-20
"They immediately abandoned their nets and
became His follower." Mk 1:18
Today's gospel reminds us of the process of "letting
go". Throughout the life cycle of the family we are
constantly challenged to "let go" as we try to
"hold on". Of what is the Lord asking you to let
go? Control? Possessions? Judgements of other?
Adolescent children? Self-centeredness?
Adults: What can I do this week to invite a friend
or neighbor to follow Christ?
Children: How can I help a friend or classmate feel
invited to follow Christ?
PLEASE HELP!! We wish to thank
all of those who have given to our
Food Pantry. We are very grateful for
the help you have already given us,
but unfortunately the need is ongoing.
The Pantry has plenty of canned corn, green beans
and pasta, if you can supply Canned fruit, boxed rice
and canned pasta (Chef Boyardee, spaghetti o’s.
You may give a monetary donation place in an envelope
marked Social Concerns and drop in the Offertory.
Anything you can give will be greatly appreciated.
The Social Concerns Ministry thanks you and May
God Bless you.

SPIRITUAL ADOPTION
THIRD SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME, JANUARY 25, 2015
Today is the Day that the Lord has made,
Let us Rejoice and be Glad in It.
Let us rejoice today in our Sixth Spiritual Adoption of God’s Children that are Wonderfully made in His
Image and Likeness.
With Great Enthusiasm, we celebrate the life of our already adopted children in the past, and now, in
keeping with the sanctity of life, we are welcoming you to adopt yet another child of God.
The Life Ministry is sponsoring our Sixth Parish-Wide Spiritual Adoption beginning this week-end. Its
purpose is threefold:
First - To Pray for Unborn Babies in danger of abortion.
Second - To Educate people about the Development of the Unborn child over the nine months of
pregnancy.
Third - To influence the Hearts and Minds of all to Value Live.
Please join in spiritually adopting a baby into your heart so that your child may be protected from the
danger of abortion.
There are Pink and Blue Spiritual Adoption Pledge Cards available to each of you. Please name your
baby and pray daily for your baby. Please drop these pledge cards in the collection basket and they will
be placed at the feet of Our Blessed Mother for Protection.
There are Prayer Cards available, also, for each and everyone. Please KEEP this prayer card and put
your baby’s name on the back of the card. This will remind you to pray daily for your adopted child.
You will receive weekly reports in the church bulletin on your adopted baby’s development during the
next nine months.
This is a perfect way to instruct your children in the development of a child in the womb. Allow them to
share in the spiritual adoption and prayers for your very special child.
Mother Teresa: “without prayer there is no faith; without faith - no love; without love - no
service and without service - no joy, no peace.”
