HOLIDAY: The Parish Office & Facilities will be closed on Monday, Jan. 19th in observance of the Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday. We will reopen Tuesday at 9am. THE BAPTISM OF THE LORD TODAY’S REFLECTION A wise older priest I served with many years ago would often reply “That’s a ‘why question.’” whenever I asked about some questionable human behavior. The implication was that my question could not be easily answered, if at all. As we close out the Christmas season, and come today to our annual celebration of the Lord’s baptism, one of those persistent “why questions” arises, namely, “Why would Jesus Our Lord, the sinless Son of God, need baptism? St. Mark is no help. He skillfully bypasses the question, and puts his focus mainly on Jesus’ identity. In his gospel, written later, St. Matthew knew that the question embarrassed the early Church, precisely because of the belief that baptism takes away sin. The dilemma: “What sins does baptism take away?” The present Catechism, brought into being through the efforts of Pope St. John Paul II, finally gives us an answer: “Our Lord voluntarily submitted Himself to the baptism of John, intended for sinners, in order to “fulfill all righteousness.” (God’s plan of salvation.) Jesus’ gesture is a manifestation of His self-emptying.” Of course, all this probing to answer a legitimate “why question” could distract us from a more important personal issue. It’s another “why question.” Why do we keep violating our baptismal innocence? In other words, why do we persist in our sins? Why do we procrastinate about the whole business of personal reform? Could it be that we think we don’t need reform? A new year, barely ten days old, is a fine opportunity for a resolution that has nothing to do with losing weight or stopping smoking. It could not only change us for the better now, but also our future life in heaven. Could it be that personal reform is just too hard? Or that we don’t want to give up our favorite sin? The difficulty some people have in entering the doorway to the kingdom of God is very much like the experience of the boy who got his hand caught inside an expensive vase. His upset parents applied soap suds and cooking oil, without success. When they seemed ready to break the vase as the only way to release the hand, the frightened boy cried, “would it help if I let loose of the penny I’m holding?” So it is all too often with us. We cause others great anguish and risk the truly valuable because we will not 2 let go of the insignificant things we possess today. 0966 Baptisms We welcome into our family of faith those children recently baptized at St. Matthew Church: Caitlin Ritter, Lulu Taylor, Layla Constantino, Stella Constantino, Olivia Harrington, Brie Benjamin, Cameron Heffernan, and Mathew Mercurio.
