When we genuinely fulfill the law of Jesus Christ and accept the Word of God completely, we will always be successful! In addition, we will discover that God will give us a spirit that comes from knowing “the glorious freedom of the children of God.” This is a spirit of confidence and joy much like the Apostles possessed after receiving the Holy Ghost. It is a confidence that enables one to boldly proclaim one’s faith in every circumstance. This is our Christian duty. If we have any shame or hesitation in doing so we are denying Jesus Christ. A failure to profess one’s faith for fear of ridicule or criticism is sinful.

CELEBRANT Rev. Jeffery A. Fasching
January 20th, 2013 Second Sunday after Epiphany
Epistle: Rom. 12:6-16; Gospel: Jn. 2:1-11
Mass schedule January 21st through January 25th
Monday-Saint Agnes * Virgin & Martyr-NO LATIN MASS
Tuesday-SS. Vincent & Anastasius, Martyrs
Wednesday-Saint Raymond of Penafort, Confessor
Thursday-Saint Timothy, Bishop & Martyr
Friday-Conversion of Saint Paul
The Wedding Feast at Cana in Galilee is the second luminous mystery of the Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Jesus Christ works His first public miracle because His Mother asks Him to! When we ponder this mystery in the life of Christ we should realize how it pleases God when we approach Him through His Blessed Mother. Mary is the most powerful intercessor of all the saints. In fact, one single sigh to her Son is more powerful than the prayers of all the angels and saints combined! Mary’s prayer is the prayer of a Mother, whereas the prayers of saints and angels are prayers of servants. All that the Mother asks of the Son is granted to her.
Mary has a heart full of love and mercy for poor sinners. She desires to see us happy in this life. We have only to turn to her if we want to be heard. It is true that God loved us so much that He died for us, but in the heart of Our Lord there is also justice for sinners. In the heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary there is nothing but mercy. When Jesus Christ is ready to punish a sinner, Mary intercedes and begs pardon for the sinner and Jesus cannot refuse her anything! The Most Holy Virgin places herself between her Son and us. The greater we sin, the more tenderness and compassion she feels for us.
Let us renew our devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary and approach God through her with all our needs.
Sincerely in Christ,
Fr. Jeff Fasching

January 6th, 2013 Epiphany of the Lord
Epistle: Is. 60: 1-6; Gospel: Mt. 2: 1-12
Mass schedule January 7th through January 11th
Monday through Friday—Feria of Epiphanytide—NO LATIN MASS
THERE WILL BE NO LATIN MASS THIS WEEK
The Magi come to adore the infant Jesus. Epiphany should remind us of our own responsibility to worship our Lord Jesus Christ, particularly in the Blessed Sacrament of the Eucharist. The Christmas season reminds us that the grace of God has appeared on earth in the person of Jesus Christ. Christ has wrought our redemption through His precious blood. We have been purchased at a great price! God wants us to return His love.
We see the infinite humility of Jesus Christ in the Nativity. In fact Christ’s entire life was a perfect example of humility. But He doesn’t stop there. Christ continues to make Himself present on our altars under the appearance of bread and wine. He gives us the opportunity to worship Him whenever we desire. As we begin a New Year let us resolve to visit our Lord more frequently in the Blessed Sacrament of the altar. Let us learn to receive His Body and Blood with greater fervor and devotion.
In Christ,
Fr. Jeff Fasching
