; Respect Life Corneri Lethal Injection-The U.S. bishops have been advocating
~ against the death penalty for over 40 years. The U.S. Supreme
~Court announced that it would review the drug protocols of
~ lethal injection executions in the state of Oklahoma. The court
~will consider whether the procedures violate the U.S. Constitu~ tion's ban on cruel and unusual punishment.
~ Learn, Act, Connect, Pray: Society can protect itself in ways
~ other than the use of the death penalty. Pray that the Court's
~review of these protocols will lead to the recognition that insti~ tutionalized practices of violence against any person erode rev~ erence for the sanctity of every human life.

Hello,

We welcome Jacob Thomas Hughes (Parents: Joshua James & Nicole Elizabeth) as we baptize him
this Saturday at St. Mary. May he grow in wisdom, age and grace. Let us be great examples of faith to him
and all our children.
Happy Birthday to Lillian Luebbers who celebrates her 80th Birthday on February 11th. May you
have many more, Lillian!
We extend our sympathy to the family of Carol Hilmes. May she rest in God's peace.
Please sign up for the Parish Pictorial Directory after one of the weekend Masses or on-line.
Thanks to all who have done so already.
As I reflected on this weekend's scripture, I thought of a line that I've heard Fr. Bill Hitpas, native
son of St. Mary, say often: "Faith is not taught, it is caught."
Patricia Sanchez says much the same in her commentary on the scripture today;
The Gospel must speak to the here and now as well as the world to come. For that reason those who
preach, teach and witness to the Gospel are to be concerned with human advancement, justice and liberation,
and the future participation of all of humankind in the reign of God ...
Perhaps that is why Pope Francis is so beloved, not only in the Church but around the world. He
brings Christ to life in his care for others, especially the poor. He knows whom he is following-the Christand he lives it! Inside the conclave, the Cardinal seated next to him whispered, "Don't forget the poor." When
asked what name he would take, he said, "I choose the name Francis, in honor of St. Francis of Assisi." The
cardinals rose to the feet in applause.
In choosing his name, he set his mission statement and the mission of evangelization which always
includes the poor. In memory of St. Francis, the crowd welcomed him with homemade signs everywhere that
read, "Repair my church." (These are words St. Francis received in a vision.)- The last two paragraphs are
based on Catherine Corman's article" "Why Pope Francis is very much like St. Francis."
I'll forever remember his first address from the balcony. He asked the crowd and all watching to pray
for him. And I did. Long live the Popel Long live Christ in us!
Peace & good, Fr. George

Scho!dstic.~,
!lln~ss, depression. dnd mtstortune can make us fc0l alon~ and
ofnrd. We: wonder wh~ther anyon~ can undcr<tond what we 'n::
going through or hdp us
Th;; first five chopt2rs of \lMk's Gospel giv~ us s~v~ral
h"allng srori"s in which Jesus. by touch or word. restorzs
individuals to wholeness. He casts out demons, as w~ h~ard last

Weekday
Gn 2:4b-9,
A friend told me not to worry about salvation because
we're predestined to be saved or condemned. Why
try to be a good person if God has already decided
where I'll end up?
15-17
week. He curcj the sick. like Simon·;) mother-in-t::nv. The ~rorles
Mk 7 H-23
confirm what our faith tdls us-that God's healing power is for
all people and that Good i'i~ws lifts us aod gives us joy
But for those touched by the loneliness of infirmity vf
mind. body, or spirit. the stories alone might not be ~nough.
Instead, the fervent prayer of th~ psalmist might be our gcace:
·'The Lord ... [heals] the brok~n-h"arted"[Psalm l-+7:2-3). Or,
our peace might rest in the simple knowledge of two often
overlooked lines in the Gospel: "They brought him many who
""::repossessed by demons'' I\ !ark 8:161 and ··The whole town
was gathered at the door" (:\!ark 1:331.
Simply put, everyone came. and no one was alone. No matter what our condition, we are not alone. Christ is there in our
pain and sutiering to give us the gnce to endure. We're not
always cured by human standards, but Christ helps us find
wholeness no matter what we :mffer-and in him we find our
peace and our joy.
lsai>1h told us that the name given to the :Vlessiah was
Emmanuel, which means ··God with us."
In Christ, we see the evidence that God's promise has come
true.
The idea that some people are predcstin~d to be saved
and othus are damned is contrary to Catholic teaching.
The Catechism of the Catholic Church says that
'"Wh.::n therefor~ [God] establishes his eterml plan of
·predestination,' he includes in if each person's Fee
response to his grace [600; emphasis added].
The Catolchism (1038) also cites the parable of the
separation ofth.:: sheep from the goats IMatthew 25:31-46).
in which the sheep and goats are separated not randomly,
but based on their actions: '"vi/hen the Son of Man comes
in his glory, .. all the nations will be assembled before him.
A.nd ne will separate them one from another, as a shepherd
separates the sheep from the goats. He will place the sheep
on his right and the goats on his left Then the king will
say to those on his right, 'Come. you who are blessed by
my Father'.... And [those on the left] will go off to eternal
punishrn<:nt."
God wmts to save all people. The way we respond to
God's gift of salvation is called jree will. Unfortunat~ly,
not everyone accepts that gift.
