Ash Wednesday Date Posted: January 16, 2021 Ashes this year will distributed by sprinkling them on each person’s head. - Following is a brief explanation of this practice: Sprinkling ashes on the top of the head recalls the biblical practice of putting on “sackcloth and ashes” as an act of penance. For example, we read in the Book of Nehemiah: “On the twenty fourth day of this month, the Israelites gathered together while fasting and wearing sackcloth, their heads covered with dust” (Neh 9:1). While the custom in the USA has been to mark the forehead with a cross, sprinkling the ashes on the head remains the custom in other parts of the world such as Spain and Italy. However the ashes are received, the interior repentance... Read More »
Everyday Stewardship ~ Recognize God in Your Ordinary Moments Date Posted: January 16, 2021 Christ Is Anything but Ordinary - We’re about to dive headlong into week two of Ordinary Time, and we need to admit, after the hustle and bustle of the holidays, things are indeed looking more ... ordinary, at least in our spiritual lives. - The transcendent highs of the Christmas season are flatlining a bit and the vivid imagery of the Nativity scene has faded. The solemn anticipation of the Advent season is by now a distant memory. - Are you bored yet? - Here’s a secret: I think that Ordinary Time can actually be quite extraordinary, if we’re really living out our baptismal call. - In today’s Gospel, Jesus point-blank asks Andrew, who is following him after hearing John the...

Live the Liturgy ~ Inspiration for the Week Date Posted: January 16, 2021 We have often heard it said that God is always calling but we are not always listening. It is not only that we are not listening, but that we are not familiar enough with God to even recognize that it is God who is calling! We can easily mistake God’s voice for someone or something else and miss some profound opportunities for connection. We have to train our minds, hearts, and souls to specifically listen for the voice of God. It is a voice that draws us to deeper places, leading us to moments of grace and more profound God awareness. To look at Jesus and be able to say, “Behold, the Lamb of God,” means that I know something special about this person whom others know as simply a man.... Read More »
Gospel Meditation Date Posted: January 16, 2021 January 17, 2021 - 2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time - Our faith is not just about ideas. It’s really about having an encounter with God and, in particular, the Risen Christ! Once we give ourselves over to the notion of God’s presence, we have to train ourselves to listen for God’s voice and be attentive to God’s call. Having companions on our faith journeys is so incredibly important as they can help us fine-tune our listening skills and discern God’s voice from others we may be hearing. Faith is all about having these profound encounters not only with God but with our brothers and sisters, and creation itself. Anyone or anything that is alive with God’s presence becomes an occasion... Read More »
