JANUARY 18, 2015 SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME 1502 E. Wallen Road Fort Wayne, IN 46825 www.saintv.org This past weekend over 125 fellow parishioners attended a Reflection for Parish Ministry leaders and representatives, sponsored by the Stewardship committee and our Christian Servant Leadership groups in the parish. Charlie Hoover, from the Catherine of Sienna Institute, was the primary speaker for this event, ”Called to Love, Gifted to Serve”. He facilitated a beautiful blend of presentation, prayer and quiet time for reflection, and time for discussion among the participants as they look at our parish over the next year. There will be more events of this nature in the future, as the parish begins to ask ALL of its members: What are YOUR gifts? What are YOUR talents? How do you discern them and use them? Where might YOU be called to serve and love over the next year or two? 2 N E W S MASS INTENTIONS Monday, January 19 & N O T E S The following are excerpts from a recent letter from Fr. Angelo Falzon, pastor of our sister parish in Honduras. Martin Luther King, Jr I went yesterday, at the Post Office and found nothing. However, do not worry, during the Christmas time, the post office is always delayed and it will come to normal with regard Heb 5:1-10 / Mk 2:18-22 to work up to February. Every year, the parish receives Tuesday, January 20 Christmas Cards in February. Your letter will reach us sooner *6:30 am Nondas Campbell or later, as always is the case, even late. When the parish 8:00 am Judy Keys Heb 6:10-20 / Mk 2:23-28 receives the letter, I will inform you straight away.

Heb 7:1-3, 15-17 / Mk 3:1-6 Yesterday as I was in the capital city, I decided to put the satellite dish as I had it Thursday, January 22 some years ago for the internet. As I told you, the internet has gone down and I went *6:30 am Mary Scully to the central headquarters of the claro’s internet in the capital city and told them 8:00 am Winifred Methe that the locals (some students) are having problems with the internet. They told me All Mass in simple and plain language that the company has no intention of investing any Heb 7:25-8:6 / Mk 3:7-12 more money because the income from this area is very low and beside their priorities Friday, January 23 are elsewhere, seeing that there is no hope of improving the communication which is 8:00 am INT Deb Harmon a must, in our time, the parish decided to install the satellite dish. The parish had *5:30 pm Alvina Meyer this communication about 10 years ago, but then, the parish changed it for the Heb 8:6-13 / Mk 3:13-19 modem, which worked quite well, but since there is no good intention of fixing the Saturday, January 24 problem and getting better the communication, it is much more practice to return to 8:00 am Deceased Members of the old method. It is a sorry business to see things getting from bad to worst. Martin/Amick Families Thanks be to God, the parish is starting the usual work of the year, visiting Heb 9:2-3, 11-14 / Mk 3:20-21 villages, organizing courses, retreats, bible formation and meetings to see the Good 5:00 pm INT Bud & Jane Thiel Lord, being the center of our parishioners.
