Greetings in the name of Jesus, the Light of the world!
This Sunday we continue the story of John the Baptist with
his later encounter with Jesus, whom he proclaims to be the
"Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world." The
gospel for this Sunday opens with further reflection on
Jesus’ baptism. He is the Lamb of God who takes away the
sin of the world and the one anointed by the Spirit. In the
liturgy we come and see Christ revealed among us in word
and meal. We go forth to invite others to come and worship
the Holy One and to receive the gifts of grace and peace
made known among us.
Remember that our Consecration Sunday will be on
January 25. You can participate by submitting your pledges
(for both the building fund and the general fund), together
with other stewards of our parish. We will ask God to bless
these pledges. So, please pray about your participation in
this consecration! May Christ be with you now and always.
