Lantana, Florida Holy Spirit Catholic Church January 25, 2015 Page 2 Third Sunday in Ordinary Time The kingdom of God is at hand. Repent, and believe in the gospel.- Mark 1:15 CHANGE OUR LIVES St. Thomas Aquinas January 28 In today's first reading, Jonah, sent by God to warn the people, storms through Nineveh, frightening the citizens out of their wits. It works! They repent before Jonah makes his way through a third of the city, and God sees "by their actions" how they have turned from evil. Then we hear Paul telling the Corinthians that "the world in its present form is passing away." He calls for a change of heart. He stops short of telling them to set aside their everyday lives, but still he urges them-rather mysteriously-to live as though they aren't doing the things they're doing. Finally, Jesus stands on the shore and cries, "The kingdom of God is at hand!" The apostles-to-be abandon their nets and follow him. Thus in all the readings we hear an invitation to a radical and immediate change in our lives. Copyright© J. S. Paluch Co. PASTOR Rev. Kevin C. Nelson PAROCHIAL VICAR Rev.
