2 PAGE 2 THE EPIPHANY OF THE LORD JANUARY 4, 2015 HAPPY NEW YEAR! Did you MAKE any resolutions for the new year? Did you BREAK any of them so far? Are you like me, that is, do you write 2015 on the next ten checks in your checkbook to make sure that you get the date right? Or do you even have a checkbook? I am amazed to learn how many people do not carry any cash with them. They use a debit card or a credit card to pay for everything, even for a dollar burger at a fast food restaurant! Times have sure changed. HAPPY SOLEMNITY OF THE EPIPHANY OF THE LORD! Old timers will still remember when this celebration was always held on January 6 th. We are reminded of the visit of the Magi and the gifts, gold, frankincense and myrrh that were given to Mary, Joseph and Jesus. As the ORDO, the official book that tells us which Mass to celebrate on each day of the year, states: On this day, All nations are invited to sing the Lord s praises, for they have been called to hear the good news and worship the long awaited Messiah and King with the gift of their lives. For this reason, Church leaders decided to move this feast to Sunday, so all people would have the opportunity to celebrate this great feast. I am blessed to receive many gifts throughout the year. For example, as most of you know, I have asked that, if you attend Mass at a parish other than our own, you bring a bulletin from that church. Some people think that I look at the weekly offering. That is far from the truth. I look to see if the pastor wrote an article or if there is anything I might be able to steal, or, I mean, use in one of my articles. Recently I received a bulletin from the First Presbyterian Church of DuPage. After the page outlining the service for the day, we find the following on the next page: Scripture: Sermon Notes Sermon Title: Speaker: (And the rest of the page is blank. I like that and I am thinking of using that format for the rest of the year for my column. In fact, I will start that right now!)

3 PAGE 3 THE EPIPHANY OF THE LORD JANUARY 4, 2015 READINGS FOR THIS WEEKEND FIRST READING: ISAIAH 60:1-6 GOSPEL: MATTHEW 2:1-12 Rise up in splendor, Jerusalem! Your light has come, the glory of the Lord shines upon you. See, darkness covers the earth, and thick clouds cover the peoples; but upon you the LORD shines, and over you appears his glory. Nations shall walk by your light, and kings by your shining radiance. Raise your eyes and look about; they all gather and come to you: your sons come from afar, and your daughters in the arms of their nurses. Then you shall be radiant at what you see, your heart shall throb and overflow, for the riches of the sea shall be emptied out before you, the wealth of nations shall be brought to you. Caravans of camels shall fill you, dromedaries from Midian and Ephah; all from Sheba shall come bearing gold and frankincense, and proclaiming the praises of the LORD. SECOND READING: EPHESIANS 3:2-3A, 5-6 Brothers and sisters: You have heard of the stewardship of God s grace that was given to me for your benefit, namely, that the mystery was made known to me by revelation. It was not made known to people in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit: that the Gentiles are coheirs, members of the same body, and copartners in the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel. When Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, in the days of King Herod, behold, magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem, saying, Where is the newborn king of the Jews? We saw his star at its rising and have come to do him homage. When King Herod heard this, he was greatly troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. Assembling all the chief priests and the scribes of the people, He inquired of them where the Christ was to be born. They said to him, In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it has been written through the prophet: And you, Bethlehem, land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; since from you shall come a ruler, who is to shepherd my people Israel. Then Herod called the magi secretly and ascertained from them the time of the star s appearance. He sent them to Bethlehem and said, Go and search diligently for the child. When you have found him, bring me word, that I too may go and do him homage. After their audience with the king they set out. And behold, the star that they had seen at its rising preceded them, until it came and stopped over the place where the child was. They were overjoyed at seeing the star, and on entering the house they saw the child with Mary his mother. They prostrated themselves and did him homage. Then they opened their treasures and offered him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. And having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they departed for their country by another way.

4 PAGE 4 THE EPIPHANY OF THE LORD JANUARY 4, 2015 ADORATION of the BLESSED SACRAMENT Come visit Jesus in the Chapel this Monday from: 12:00 Noon to 8:00 p.m. Benediction will be at 7:45 p.m. Dear Lord, thank You for always being with us. We ask that when troubles invariably come, You would renew in us once again the blessed peace of Your presence... Amen A Thought: Take the joy of Christmas with you every day. TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Epiphany celebrates the wake up calls of life, the showings of God s majesty and power in the person of Jesus. The feast alerts us to look for signs of the Lord s grace and action in our lives today. In this context, the call of the Second Vatican Council to reform the sacramental life of the Church, including our pattern of care for the sick, is indeed a holy awakening. Prior to the 1960s, our care for the sick had collapsed in the popular imagination into something everyone called last rites. An immensely complicated ritual, with anointing accompanied by quickly muttered Latin prayers, was enacted for a marginally conscious person at death s door. By the time a priest was called, the sick person might not be able to receive viaticum, or derive much personal benefit from the ritual. The healing effects of the sacrament, investing suffering with the dignity of a link to Christ s cross, and the immense assurance of forgiveness for a person reviewing the life journey, were hidden. Suddenly, an epiphany swept through the Church, and the way we care for the sick was utterly transformed. It took several centuries, however, for the Church to reach that moment of renewal. Rev.

PROTECT THEM AS THEY PROTECT US. BLESS THEM FOR THE SELFLESS ACTS THEY PERFORM FOR US. AMEN Deacon Charlie s Corner Hi! Well here we are at the beginning of a New Year and hopefully a good year for all of us. May the Lord be with us and guide us in all we do, whomever we are with, and wherever we go. Likewise, may we keep Him in mind and pray each and every day to remain faithful to His call of following Him. May this brand New Year only bring us to a closer relationship with Jesus. About 3 weeks ago, Janet & I attended the St. Fabian s Seniors Christmas Luncheon held at Aviana s Banquet Hall. We really had an enjoyable time, the food was absolutely delicious, and the entertainment was really good. I m so glad we have the Senior group at our parish. If you re a Senior and haven t joined, think about it. It s really nice for us old folks! In our Gospel from Matthew this week, the Magi came to pay homage to Jesus (these were three kings from different lands). Angels appeared to them to tell them of Jesus birth. This was so the whole world would know of the birth of our Savior, Jesus! From there it was spread through the centuries to the present day and beyond. May it only continue to the end of time, that Jesus may be made known to all peoples forever and ever...amen. Walk with King Jesus and be a blessing, Deacon Charlie Prayer for the Week: Lord, we re prone to quickly forget Your goodness and care for us. May we trust You today and into the New Year whatever uncertainties we face. You are the God who can be trusted. Thought for the Week: The secret of peace is to give every anxious care to God.

10 PAGE 10 THE EPIPHANY OF THE LORD JANUARY 4, 2015 CZYTANIA NA NIEDZIELÊ PIERWSZE CZYTANIE Iz 60,1-6 Chwa³a Boga rozb³ys³a nad Jerozolim¹ Czytanie z Ksiêgi proroka Izajasza Powstañ, œwieæ, Jeruzalem, bo przysz³o twe œwiat³o i chwa³a Pana rozb³yska nad tob¹. Bo oto ciemnoœæ okrywa ziemiê i gêsty mrok spowija ludy, a ponad tob¹ jaœnieje Pan i Jego chwa³a jawi siê nad tob¹. I pójd¹ narody do twojego œwiat³a, królowie do blasku twojego wschodu. Podnieœ oczy woko³o i popatrz: Ci wszyscy zebrani zd¹ aj¹ do ciebie. Twoi synowie przychodz¹ z daleka, na rêkach niesione twe córki. Wtedy zobaczysz i promienieæ bêdziesz, zadr y i rozszerzy siê twoje serce, bo do ciebie nap³yn¹ bogactwa zamorskie, zasoby narodów przyjd¹ ku tobie. Zaleje ciê mnogoœæ wielb³¹dów, dromadery z Madianu i z Efy. Wszyscy oni przybêd¹ ze S aby, ofiaruj¹ z³oto i kadzid³o, nuc¹c radoœnie hymny na czeœæ Pana. Oto S³owo Bo e. PSALM RESPONSORYJNY: Ps 72,1-2,7-8,10-11,12-13 Uwielbi¹ Pana wszystkie ludy ziemi. Bo e, przeka Twój s¹d Królowi, a Twoj¹ sprawiedliwoœæ synowi królewskiemu. Aby Twoim ludem rz¹dzi³ sprawiedliwie i ubogimi wed³ug prawa. Za dni Jego zakwitnie sprawiedliwoœæ, i wielki pokój, a ksiê yc nie zgaœnie. Bêdzie panowa³ od morza do morza, od Rzeki a po krañce ziemi. Królowie Tarszisz i wysp przynios¹ dary, królowie Szeby i Saby z³o ¹ daninê. I oddadz¹ Mu pok³on wszyscy królowie, wszystkie narody bêd¹ Mu s³u y³y. Wyzwoli bowiem biedaka, który Go wzywa, i ubogiego, co nie ma opieki. Zmi³uje siê nad biednym i ubogim, nêdzarza ocali od œmierci. Uwielbi¹ Pana wszystkie ludy ziemi. DRUGIE CZYTANIE Ef 3,2-3a.5-6 Poganie s¹ uczestnikami zbawienia Czytanie z Listu œwiêtego Paw³a Aposto³a do Efezjan Bracia: Przecie s³yszeliœcie o udzieleniu przez Boga ³aski danej mi dla was, e mianowicie przez objawienie oznajmiona mi zosta³a ta tajemnica. Nie by³a ona oznajmiona synom ludzkim w poprzednich pokoleniach, tak jak teraz zosta³a objawiona przez Ducha œwiêtym Jego aposto³om i prorokom, to znaczy e poganie ju s¹ wspó³dziedzicami i wspó³cz³onkami Cia³a, i wspó³uczestnikami obietnicy w Chrystusie Jezusie przez Ewangeliê. Oto S³owo Bo e. ŒPIEW PRZED EWANGELI : Mt 2,3 Alleluja, Alleluja, Alleluja Ujrzeliœmy Jego gwiazdê na Wschodzie i przybyliœmy z³o yæ pok³on Panu. Alleluja, Alleluja, Alleluja EWANGELIA Mt 2,1-12 Pok³on Mêdrców ze Wschodu S³owa Ewangelii wed³ug œwiêtego Mateusza Gdy Jezus narodzi³ siê w Betlejem w Judei za panowania króla Heroda, oto Mêdrcy ze Wschodu przybyli do Jerozolimy i pytali: Gdzie jest nowo narodzony król ydowski? Ujrzeliœmy bowiem Jego gwiazdê na Wschodzie i przybyliœmy oddaæ Mu pok³on. Skoro us³ysza³ to król Herod, przerazi³ siê, a z nim ca³a Jerozolima. Zebra³ wiêc wszystkich arcykap³anów i uczonych ludu i wypytywa³ ich, gdzie ma siê narodziæ Mesjasz. Ci mu odpowiedzieli: W Betlejem judzkim, bo tak napisa³ prorok: A ty, Betlejem, ziemio Judy, nie jesteœ zgo³a najlichsze spoœród g³ównych miast Judy, albowiem z ciebie wyjdzie w³adca, który bêdzie pasterzem ludu mego, Izraela. Wtedy Herod przywo³a³ potajemnie Mêdrców i wypyta³ ich dok³adnie o czas ukazania siê gwiazdy. A kieruj¹c ich do Betlejem, rzek³: Udajcie siê tam i wypytujcie starannie o Dzieciê, a gdy Je znajdziecie, donieœcie mi, abym i ja móg³ pójœæ i oddaæ Mu pok³on. Oni zaœ wys³uchawszy króla, ruszyli w drogê. A oto gwiazda, któr¹ widzieli na Wschodzie, sz³a przed nimi, a przysz³a i zatrzyma³a siê nad miejscem, gdzie by³o Dzieciê. Gdy ujrzeli gwiazdê, bardzo siê uradowali. Weszli do domu i zobaczyli Dzieciê z Matk¹ Jego, Maryj¹; upadli na twarz i oddali Mu pok³on. I otworzywszy swe skarby, ofiarowali Mu dary: z³oto, kadzid³o i mirrê. A otrzymawszy we œnie nakaz, eby nie wracali do Heroda, inn¹ drog¹ udali siê do ojczyzny. Oto s³owo Pañskie.
