Third Sunday in Ordinary Time
January 25, 2015
Your ways, O LORD, make known to me; teach me Your paths,
Guide me in Your Truth and teach me, for You are God my Savior.
Third Sunday in Ordinary Time
Jon 3: 1-5, 10; Ps 25: 4-9; 1 Cor 7: 29-31; Mk 1: 14-20
Paul writes to the Corinthians with
the expectation of Jesus’s imminent
second coming. His view on this will
change in later letters, but at this
point he believes that “time is
running out” (v.29). This means the
people should live with a strong awareness that “the world
in its present form is passing away” (v31).
In Mark’s text today we encounter another call narrative
of the first apostles. Today’s story is the more familiar
one: Jesus calls the fishermen to drop their nets and
follow Him. For Mark, their immediate response—”they
abandoned their nets and followed Him” (v18)—
emphasizes Jesus’s authority. The sons of Zebedee also
leave everything, including “their father . . . in the
boat” (v20)., to follow Jesus. They will learn from Him and
take part in His Mission to call others to “repent, and
believe” (v15). The call is not merely to reject sin but also
to embrace the way of the Gospel; we are to reject evil
and choose good. Jesus’s call is to a radical reorientation
of our lives. We are to live our lives in response to God’s
call.
Like the apostles, Jonah was called to preach God’s
Word, specifically the call to repentance. After initially
rejecting the calls, he embraced his mission and went to
Nineveh. Jonah is unusual in that his preaching is
addressed to gentiles, the citizens of Nineveh. His original
reluctance is based on his belief that as sinners outside of
Judaism, the people in that city did not deserve to hear the
Word of God, much less be transformed by it. We hear
that as a result of his preaching, “the people of Nineveh
believed God” (v5) and thereby avoided the evil God “had
threatened to do to them” (v10).
For reflection: What am I willing to sacrifice for the sake
of my call to be a disciple? Have I ever experienced or
witnessed a radical conversion like that of the citizens of
Nineveh? How did it serve as a sign of God’s grace?

Ps. 25:4-5
Pray with the Bishops to End Abortion
9 Days for life: January 17– 25.
Your prayers matter. Your sacrifices make a difference!
On January 22 our nation will mark the 42nd anniversary of Roe
v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that made abortion legal
throughout the U.S. Since that tragic decision, more than 56
million children's lives have been lost to abortion, and many
suffer that loss -- often in silence. Join thousands of Catholics
across the country coming together in prayer for a "culture of life" from
Saturday, January 17 - Sunday, January 25! If you’re starting after
January 17, it’s okay!

We are excited to begin our celebration of Catholic Schools Week
with liturgy at 11 AM on Sunday morning. Our students are easily
recognizable in their uniforms and are happy to answer any questions
you have about our parish school.
We are most grateful to Fr. Nick, our Pastor and Superintendent of
our school for his energetic support and unwavering dedication to
Catholic education. Our appreciation also goes to Fr. John, Fr. Ed, and
Deacon Ron. Our school greatly benefits from the guidance, prayers,
and support of our parishioners. Indeed 95% of our school families are
registered, supporting, and parishioners of the Church. Catholic
Schools Week offers an opportunity to extend our heartfelt gratitude to
the many ministries and individual parishioners for your support.
A dozen reasons to choose Catholic Schools:
1. We offer an education that combines Catholic tradition with
academic excellence.
2. We partner with parents in the faith formation of their children.
3. We set high standards for student achievement and work closely
with them to help them succeed.
4. We provide a balanced curriculum that includes art, music, and
fitness.
5. We use technology effectively to enhance education.
6. We instill in students the value of service to others.
7. We teach children respect of self and others.
8. We emphasize moral development and self discipline.
9. We prepare students to be productive citizens and future leaders.
10. We have a 99% high school graduation rate, and 85% of our high
school graduates go to college.
11. We cultivate a faculty and staff of people who are dedicated, caring,
and effective.
12. We provide a safe and welcoming environment for all.
