St. Francis of Assisi Parish
January11, 2015 • Feast of the Baptism of the Lord
......................................................................................
From the Pastor’s Desk
W
e welcome Fr. Franklin back to St. Francis Parish
this weekend. He is here to speak about his
important ministry with the Franciscan School
of Theology at Mission San Luis Rey in Oceanside, CA. He has
a memorable history with us at St. Francis, and I hope you
will welcome him home
with open arms.
This weekend the
Christmas Season comes
to an end with the Feast
of the Bap sm of the
Lord. This event in Jesus’
life is one of the few
events that all four evangelists men on in their
gospel narra ves.
The four evangelists narrate the bap sm of Jesus with
diﬀerent emphases, addressing what was needed to iden fy
Jesus with their Chris an communi es. Each community had
its own iden ty, experience, and way of understanding the
Resurrected Lord in their midst.
How might we write about the story of Jesus’ bap sm?
What emphasis do we need in order to iden fy Jesus with our
community of faith? How might we be er understand the
resurrected Lord in our midst?
Why did Jesus need
to be bap zed?
For Mark, the bap sm of Jesus is the first epiphany or
manifesta on of the “Messianic King.” The heavens open,
the Spirit descends upon Jesus like a dove, and a voice
announces, “This is my beloved Son with whom I am well
pleased.” This announcement makes clear Jesus’ iden ty and
begins his mission.
For Luke, Jesus comes to bap sm when “all the people
are being bap zed.” Jesus is in solidarity with sinners. In Luke,
the heavens open when Jesus “had been bap zed and was
praying.” It is Jesus’ prayer that seems to open the heavens
for the Holy Spirit to descend upon him.
For Ma hew, Jesus’ bap sm is a sign that he will stand
with “sinners.” Although John the Bap st wishes Jesus to
bap ze him, Jesus insists that John must confer upon him
the bap sm of conversion to God. As one who stands with
us, Jesus becomes more iden fied with us un l his iden ty is
manifested on the cross as he dies for all humanity.
In John’s gospel, Jesus appears from nowhere. He approaches John the Bap st and, from their encounter, the
message of Jesus goes out to the en re world. Jesus’ bap sm

is an epiphany to John the Bap st, when he witnesses the
“Spirit of God descending like a dove from the sky” to rest on
Jesus. From this experience, John the Bap st becomes the
apostle, the one sent to tes fy that Jesus is God’s chosen one.
He announces that Jesus is the “Lamb of God,” the sacrificial
lamb who will bear the sins of the world. For Jesus to be
known, the revela on that occurs at his bap sm is needed
to open our eyes and hearts. The Gospel of John intends to
reveal the “Lamb of God.”
Weekday Masses
(in St. Clare Chapel)
12:10 pm
Our bap sm, “In the Name of the Father, the Son, and
the Holy Spirit,” bonds us together in faith and mission. We
proclaim this bond with God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit when
we gather as a community for Eucharist and prayer.
In the gospel narra ves, Jesus gathers in community
for meals, weddings, and other opportuni es to celebrate
his bonds and rela onships. We have the opportunity as a
community of faith, and as friends, to come together on
January 31 to share in our Mardi Gras celebra on—and to
raise funds for those most in need who are served by our
Outreach ministries. I invite you to join me and others in
our parish community for this annual me of sharing fun,
fellowship, a meal, and our iden ty—who we are as a caring
community of faith who iden fy ourselves with Jesus through
sharing in a common bap sm with him.
During our bap sms we, too, had the same words
spoken over each of us that were spoken over Jesus: we, too,
are the beloved sons and daughters of God. I invite you to
join in this wonderful pre-Lenten celebra on, proclaiming our
rela onship with one another and with our brother, Jesus.

The Book of Ruth and the Status of

THIS Sunday, January 11

Wednesday, January 28

F
r. Ken and our St. Francis Welcome Team invite you to
enjoy a brunch with us, other volunteers and parish
staﬀ—to learn a li le more about St. Francis Parish and get to
know some of our St. Francis family.
You do not need to bring anything but yourself and any
family or friends who’d like to a end.
T
he Book of Ruth is one of the
shortest books of the Old Testament,
and also one of the most endearing, but it reveals an abundance of informa on about the place of women in Israelite
society, while raising interes ng ques ons about laws and
customs aﬀec ng marriage, courtship and property. Though
set incongruously within the period of the Judges, the Book
of Ruth portrays an almost idyllic society in which strangers and the poor are treated with kindness and respect, and
daughters-in-law express nothing but love and devo on for
their mothers-in-law — obviously, a world very diﬀerent from
our own!

Parish Mission Statement
St. Francis Parish is a Catholic Chris an Community
building the reign of God in the spirit and path
of St. Francis and St. Clare of Assisi.
Our New Altar and Ambo
We value vibrant liturgy and personal prayer
as a way to worship God and celebrate life.
O
ur new permanent altar and ambo are
made of sustainable mahogany with
white marble inlays that echo our marble
floors, steps and tabernacle. Their columns,
capitals, and arches echo the columns, capitals,
and arches in the architecture of our church.
Challenged by the Holy Spirit,
we reach beyond ourselves to care for our neighbors,
the poor, the marginalized,
and those alienated by our Catholic Church.
The new altar has 8 copper medallions framed in white
marble inlay featuring Franciscan crea on images—Brother
Sun, Sister Moon, Sister Stars, Brother Fire, Sister Water,
Brother Wind, Sister Earth, and Sister Death. Inset in the base
of the altar is a reliquary with a copper cover that will contain
relics of St. Francis and St. Clare of Assisi, St. Perpetua and
St. Felicity, and Blessed Fr. Junipero Serra.
We respond to the command of Jesus to love
by welcoming all, evangelizing,
suppor ng spiritual growth,
and being Eucharist to each other.
We aspire to be witnesses and prophets
advoca ng for jus ce in the world and in the Church.
We are an inclusive community
respec ng the dignity of all persons
and suppor ng the journey of each person.
5
The new ambo has four copper medallions featuring
symbols of the Evangelists—Ma hew, angel; Mark, lion; Luke,
ox; and John, eagle. The niche in the front of the ambo is
inscribed with the words, “The Word dwells with us,” and
is where both the Gospel Book and Children’s Liturgy of the
Word book will be placed.

adults groups called Chris an Life Communi es (CLC), where
you will become part of a young adult community (approximately 4 - 10 people). There is no commitment—just a end
once and go from there. Our CLCs are based on Igna an as
well as Franciscan spirituality and are a place for growth,
companionship, and transforma on. More info: Patrice at
