Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time Job 7:1-4, 6-7; Ps 147:1-2, 3-4, 56; 1 Cor 9:16-19, 22-23; Mk 1:2939 Today’s first reading reminds us that we all experience difficulty in our lives; it is part of the human condition. Life can seen like “a drudgery”, filled with “months of misery, and troubled nights”. But the book of Job ultimately calls us to recognize that all we have comes from God and that our destiny is in God’s hands. We are called to hope in God's goodness. Paul tells the Corinthians that his mission of preaching the gospel is “an obligation … imposed on me” by God. His task is to “win over as many as possible”, both Jews and gentiles, “those outside the law”. In this preaching he is helping to fulfill God's will of saving as many as will accept the word, “so that I too may have a share in it”. In the Gospel today, Jesus’ cure of Simon Peter’s mother-in -law serves to illustrate Jesus’ authority once again, an idea, we encountered last week. Her response is to minister to Jesus and his disciples. Mark then tells us that when the Sabbath was over, “after sunset, they brought to him all who were ill or possessed by demons”, and Jesus continues to exercise his authority by healing them, Jesus does not allow the demons “to speak because they knew him”. This silencing is another example of Jesus’ power, which is superior to that of the demons. We will encounter this theme frequently in Mark’s text. For reflection: When have I empathized with Job? How did I get through the suffering? Like Peter’s mother-in -law, God has blessed me in many ways. What has been my response? The Beautiful Gift of Light Matthew 25 Project Continues Blessed Teresa Parish is continuing the Matthew 25 project by serving dinner to the homeless at the Joseph House on the third Friday of every month. Our next dates are February 20th and March 20th. We will meet in the St. John’s parking lot at 8:30 PM and car pool to the Joseph House. If you would like to participate, please register by calling Jim & Mickey at 856-8585484. You can participate for just one night or as many nights as your wish. We ask that all participants be adults or high school age. The Sanctuary Light burns seven days a week, every week of the year before the Blessed Sacrament. If you would like this candle to burn in memory of a loved one, e.g. a birthday, anniversary of death, wedding anniversary, or any special occasion, please call our parish office. The name of the person to be remembered and the donor will be published weekly in our bulletin. Suggested offering is $25.00. The Sanctuary Light at Holy Saviour for the week of Feb. 8th is in memory of Anita Cole requested by the Cole Family.

However, our resources are limited as we are not government funded and operate strictly on donations. The Society of St. Vincent de Paul, which operates the food pantry, is ever grateful for your generous donations which help us to put food on the table for many families. As always, we try to provide main meal items that might not be available at the area’s remaining food pantries. We always need donations of canned fruit, chunky soups, stews, canned meat and fish, pasta and sauce, and small jars of jelly, crackers, cereal (hot and cold) and other main meal items. We cannot accept perishables, expired items, meal supplements or items which have been previously opened. Again, thank you for living the gospels by helping us to feed the hungry!

From the Principals Desk .... Catholic Schools Week began in 1974 to highlight the good works and achievements of Catholic schools throughout the nation. From its first theme "Catholic Schools, Different Where It Counts--Message, Community and Service," to its current theme "Communities of Faith, Knowledge and Service," Catholic schools have been a vibrant part of the educational system in our nation. Good Shepherd School celebrates its high academics as well as its service during this week long celebration. On Sunday they gathered together for Mass at St. John Church followed by an Open House. Families visited with staff in the classrooms followed by a brunch in the cafeteria. On Monday, Good Shepherd School celebrated their families as grandparents, parents and other family members participated in special classroom activities followed by the special Liturgy celebrated with Bishop Sullivan and priests associated with Good Shepherd at St. John's Church. On Wednesday, the children wrote thank you cards and letters to their local police officers, thanking them for their service in keeping them safe. Thursday was "Student Appreciation Day" and students celebrated with a special Gym Extravaganza and sundae making courtesy of their parent's group. On Friday, the school community celebrated the school staff with a special breakfast. Good Shepherd Regional Catholic School is a community of Faith, Knowledge and Service!

Contact: Valerie Wigginton 456-8114 527 From the Office of Ministry With the Deaf and Persons with Disabilities “Rising very early before dawn, Jesus left and went off to a deserted place, where he prayed.” Mark 1:35 “Love to pray. Feel often during the day the need for prayer, and take trouble to pray. Prayer enlarges the heart until it is capable of containing God’s gift of Himself.” Mother Teresa Jesus needed to pray...what an example He gives to us...this week take time to pray...deepen your relationship with God. Blessings, Sister Bonnie “The beauty of human beings lies in their capacity to accept who they are, just as they are; not to live in a world of dreams or illusions, in anger or despair, wanting to be other than they are, or trying to run away from reality. They realize that they have the right to be themselves. And there, they discover that they are loved by god, that they are unique and important for God and that they can do things for others. We may not all be called to do great things that make the headlines, but we are all called to love and be loved, wherever we may be. We are called to be open and to grow in love and thus to communicate life to others, especially to those in need.” Jean Vanier Billy holds the Bible as Pete shows an act of reverence for God’s Word.

We are working together to create and sustain a community of belonging where each individual’s dignity and self-respect is strengthened by the solidarity of our shared faith, the respect and affection we have for one another, and our mutual dedication to our God-given mission. HOUSE OF CHARITY 2015 With God's help we will continue to grow in discipleship. The willingness of our members to enter into sacrificial giving of time, talent, and treasure in response to our Stewardship Appeal speaks of our continuing gratitude for God's gifts. May God continue to bless us as we share in His work! STEWARDSHIP APPEAL UPDATE Our Stewardship Appeal was a great success.

John, representing a combined weekly increase of $3,106.75 The average increase in the weekly offering is $9.68. If you have not already done, so, you can still use the special stewardship envelope to indicate your new level of giving, and return to your regular envelope packet for succeeding weeks.

Within the next few weeks you should receive a letter and brochure form Bishop Sullivan regarding the 2015 House of Charity - Bishop’s Annual Appeal. The theme this year is We Are Called. I hope you will take a few minutes to review those materials and the wonderful opportunity that a donation to this vital program will provide. By your gift to the House of Charity, you show the many who are in great need of pastoral, charitable, educational and social ministry in our Diocese that you treasure them in Jesus’ name. When you make a sacrificial gift to the House or Charity, you offer the treasure of hope. You offer the treasure of God's love. Please know that I am most grateful to you for your continued generosity to our parish, and for your willingness to consider the needs of those less fortunate in our community. I ask you to pray for me and our community as we seek to live the Gospel and serve each other in Jesus’ name. We have already collected $11,360 towards our goal from 25 families. This is 8 1/2% of our goal of $134.137.25. Peace and every Blessing! Fr.
