Liturgically, Christmas refers to the memorial of Christ’s Nativity and His early manifestations which include His baptism as an adult. Thus, today’s Feast, The Baptism of the Lord, is still part of the Christmas celebration, although it concludes it. We are so used to thinking of Jesus only as an infant during the Season that we don’t often think of His adult image as part of Christmas. In fact, all the daily Gospel readings, from last Sunday’s Feast of Epiphany to this Sunday, are adult images of Jesus, portraying different qualities of His person in order to reveal what kind of God who became man He is in relation to us. Those portrayed images of Jesus are called His Epiphanies or His manifestations. They answer the question posed in the famous carol, “What Child is this?” The ultimate answer to the same question is now given in today’s feast; given not just by prophets or sages but by God the Father Himself: “This is my beloved Son…Listen to Him.” On that note, Christmas is concluded and we are now asked to listen to the beloved Son of the Father and follow Him. The Feast of Baptism of the Lord enables us to reflect on our own baptism. It is said that our baptism is the most important day of our Christian life. It is rightfully so because at our baptism we are made sharers of the life of Christ. Baptism unites us with Jesus in the most intimate manner, bringing us into the family of God with the right to call God our Father. St. Paul said “Are you unaware that we who are baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? …So that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might live in newness of life.” (Romans 6:3-4). In other words, as baptized people we need to exude a certain confidence that does not come from human strength and power but from the life that we share in baptism. It is because the life of Jesus does not end in death but in the newness of life. It does not end in defeat but in victory. Our confidence is grounded in our belief that bad things do not have the last say. We are meant to overcome all the odds that come our way through Him whose life we share. Although we were baptized some time ago, our baptism is not an event of the past but an ever present reality, a constant and an on-going sharing in the life of the Risen Christ. Also at baptism the spirit of God takes possession of us in a very special way, to direct and guide us in the footsteps of Christ. Baptism configured us onto Christ who is Priest, Prophet and King. As people configured onto Him and made sharers of His life, we too are to live out our priestly, prophetic, and kingly vocations in coming closer every day to God in worship and prayer and to be helpers in Christ’s work of saving the world. As priests we are to offer prayers to God, especially intercessory prayers. (That is, praying not for oneself but for others and for the world). As prophets, we are to proclaim and teach the faith, especially to the ones within the sphere of our influence. We are to announce the Good News and denounce evil. As kings we are called to govern and order the affairs of those who count on our leadership in such as way that they are helped to fulfill God’s will for them. As kings, we are called to be servants of God in our sphere of living and to make our world a better place. Happy Baptism Day of the Lord! Sincerely Yours In Christ, Fr.

He said a few things which inspired my New Year’s goal-setting. The whole interview can be found at relevantradio.com (Morning Air, Audio Archives, Hour 1 of Dec. 23). In his first few weeks in Chicago, the Archbishop visited prisons, served meals at a soup kitchen on Thanksgiving Day, and on Dec. 22, he conducted burial services for 19 abandoned people whose identities were unknown. The interviewer asked about how we can get over the fear of going to the poor. The Archbishop answered, “It is important to go to where the poor are rather than distance them from the ordinary life of the church. I was taken by the example of a young couple [I met at the soup kitchen.] They told me they were there to help, as a way of preparing themselves for their wedding day on the following Saturday… I thought that was a terrific witness… There is something very unique about actually doing the work, because you make sure that any alienation that is present in people who feel that their lives are unimportant, evaporates when you see them face to face. And I intend to do more of that, to keep my own spiritual life very fresh.” When asked, what can we do to get out of our spiritual comfort zones, the Archbishop answered, “It takes conversion. It is the matter of whether or not we believe that Christ is risen and active in our midst... We have to ask ourselves, is the Lord doing something new in my life, or did I get to a place where I say I’ve been there, done that… I have served on too many committees, I’ve given enough… I’ve forgiven enough... Are we able to see that the Lord is calling us to something new every day?” At times, I’ve been advised to set goals on what I want to have, to do, and to be. I never realized there were 3 kinds of goals. Since I tend to be a workaholic, I always set goals to do things; I thought that was the only kind of goal there was. Have, do, be. Listening to the Archbishop, I realized he was talking mostly about goals for being; being a witness by giving people your presence. Listen to the Lord and be prepared for surprises. (Surprise! The God who calls Himself “I AM” cares more about be than have or do.) For me, that means I’m going to think about which items I should take off my to-do list in order to just be with my husband and daughter.

We’re suddenly challenged to find an inner strength to survive and move forward. It is at these moments we sometimes discover a spirit within ourselves that helps us down a path of unexpected self-discovery, hope and healing. Join us for a Women’s Morning of Renewal as Lee Woodruff, author and CBS reporter, shares the wisdom and inspiration she learned along her own remarkable and difficult journey. One minute Lee seemed to have it all – a happy marriage, four beautiful children and a successful career. Her life turned upside down when her husband Bob, the newly appointed co-anchor of ABC’s “World News Tonight”, was severely wounded in a roadside bomb attack in Iraq. Engaging, heartfelt and candid, Lee reminds all of us that nothing is stronger than the courage gained through love and hope. Our morning will also include time for participants to reflect on and share their own stories of challenges and healing. A special event for women, this day is devoted to listening, sharing and inspiring each other to find our inner spirits and discover our own paths as we navigate through these perfectly, imperfect lives.
