PARISH & SACRAMENTAL INFORMATION
Welcome! The Archdiocese requires that all Roman Catholics be registered in a parish. Those who desire to be
godparents for Baptism or sponsors for Confirmation must be registered and actively practicing the faith. We cannot
certify your eligibility for these roles if you are not registered and if we do not know you. To obtain a census and
registration form, please call the rectory or visit our website.
BAPTISM – The Church asks that children be baptized soon after birth. Baptisms are scheduled once a month on
Sunday afternoons. Please call the rectory office in advance of your desired month for baptism. Parents and godparents
will attend a special catechetical session before the baptism. Godparents must meet all of the Church’s eligibility
requirements.
R.C.I.A. – This is a process for those adults (18 years and older) who desire to become Catholic or complete the
initiation sacraments (Eucharist and/or Confirmation). It is also intended for those baptized in another Christian
denomination who wish to join the Catholic faith. Call the rectory and speak to Deacon Bob Millea for further
information.
MARRIAGE – The Roman Catholic Church affirms the belief that marriage is designed for the union of one man and
one woman. Roman Catholics are bound by the Church’s law to marry in a Catholic Church and have that marriage
witnessed by a priest or a deacon. The Common Policy on Marriage in the State of New Jersey requires the couple to
prepare for one year prior to entering into marriage. Please call the rectory for more information.
ANOINTING OF THE SICK – Please notify the rectory in the event of a serious illness. A communal Mass of
Anointing is offered once a year. Visits to the homebound, upon request, can be made. Please notify a priest when a
loved one is near death so the appropriate prayers may be administered.
HOLY ORDERS – Any Catholic male, regardless of age, who feels the Lord calling him to the happy and fulfilling
life of a priest is asked to speak to one of the parish priests or to call the Vocations Office at 973-313-6190. You can
also visit www.newpriestnj.org.

THE SUNDAY READINGS
The Fourth Sunday in Ordinary Time
February 1, 2015
Deuteronomy 18:15-20
1 Corinthians 7:32-35
Mark 1:21-29
The Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time
February 8, 2015
Job 7:1-4, 6-7
1 Corinthians 9:16-19, 22-23
Mark 1:29-39
oncluding the introductory section of Mark’s gospel, today’s reading further clarifies the nature of the mission Jesus
means to share with his disciples. As we have seen, the healing and deliverance performed by Jesus are part of his
preaching of the Kingdom, signs that God will triumph over all the forces of evil in the world. This is brought out by
Mark, as he recalls and contrasts two moments of healing.
There are practically no details in the gospels of the family circumstances of the apostles. The account of the curing
of Peter’s mother-in-law is therefore remarkable. It is generally accepted that Mark composed his gospel in Rome about the time
of Peter’s martyrdom. If this is true, Peter’s telling of the story of Jesus would have been an important source of his material.
In this incident we may well hear echoes of Peter’s voice describing a sequence of events. Peter brings Jesus from the synagogue
to his home for a meal; they are surprised to find the old lady ill with fever; Jesus heals her instantly by taking her hand and
helping her up; fully recovered she gives herself to the service of the Lord.
As we have seen, ‘Who is this man?’ is the subtext of Mark’s narrative. There is no doubt that Jesus worked miracles.
Miracles, as we all know, have an unhealthy fascination for many people. Mark is concerned that his readers are not carried
away by the fact that Jesus was a wonder worker. They must understand that the miracles of Jesus were signs inviting faith in
the coming of God’s salvation into the world. True faith in the Savior will come, in the end, to understand that the greatest
wonder in the life of Jesus of Nazareth was the salvation he brought to the world as its crucified Savior. Thus, as Mark’s
narrative continues, we hear echoes of how Peter began to learn this lesson at the end of the eventful Sabbath Mark has
described.
By evening, word had spread that there is a miracle worker in town. People came crowding around Peter’s door,
bringing their sick and ‘possessed’ for healing. Jesus responded to their appeals; but in his silencing of the ‘devils who knew
who he was’ we are reminded that these people still have to learn who he is. In the morning there was consternation when Peter
and his companions find that Jesus was nowhere to be found. ‘Everyone is looking for you’, they protest, disappointed that he
has not made the most of this instant notoriety. Later they will recognize that Jesus was concerned to lead the people beyond
the wonders he worked to a renewed faith in the coming of God’s Kingdom – the great theme of the solitary prayer he shared
with his Father. This could only be achieved by his preaching the message of the Kingdom. And so the ministry he was about
to undertake ‘all through Galilee’ would combine his ‘preaching’ and his ‘casting out devils’.

POPE FRANCIS
The Holy Father's Prayer Intentions
For 2015
FOR THE MONTH OF
FEBRUARY
Universal: That prisoners, especially the young, may be able
to rebuild lives of dignity.
For Evangelization: That married people who are separated
may find welcome and support in the Christian community.
A Love So Deep
If we have been saved and
sustained by a love so deep that
death itself couldn’t destroy it, then that love will
see us through whatever darkness we are
experiencing in our lives.

Dear Friends,
his weekend our parish remembers Father John P. Washington and the Chaplains of the U.S.A.T.
Dorchester – Reverend Clark Poling, Reverend George Fox and Rabbi Alexander Goode – who
selflessly gave of themselves for others. We salute the veterans who join us today at the noon Mass
and we remember those who gave their lives for our country.
T
We also acknowledge a generation of military heroes – those who, in the post-9/11 world, still give
selflessly of themselves. These men and women – our sons and daughters – are on the front line of a
global war on terror. New threats emerge every week it seems. We pray for an end to terrorism and for
the safety of those in our military. Every day, at every Mass, we pray the Prayer to Saint Michael the
Archangel to be “our defense against the snares of the wicked”.
Let us show our gratitude to those who serve and have served our country. The freedoms we enjoy now
were bought at the cost of other human lives. They must never be forgotten.
It is also important to not forget the story of the Four Chaplains. I fear, and I know others share my
concern, that as time passes, the story will be lost to future generations. We cannot and must not let that
happen! Father Washington and the Chaplains are too important to forget. Parents and grandparents, tell
your children about them. Bring them to visit the monument. Ask them to think of others who are rightly
considered heroes by their actions.
I want to thank those who have helped us with today’s Mass – those who participated in a liturgical role
and those who served the veterans at the reception downstairs.
+++
If you are watching the Super Bowl today, enjoy the game!
Have a good week!
Father Joe

Stewardship
Intercessions for Life
^^^
For women and men who are suffering
in the aftermath of an abortion:
that they may find healing, consolation and strength
through the sacraments and prayer;
We pray to the Lord:
^^^
“Rising very early before dawn, he left and went off to a
deserted place, where he prayed…He told them, ‘Let us go on to
the nearby villages that I may preach there also. For this
purpose have I come.’” - Mark 1:35, 38
In today’s Gospel reading we see a perfect example of
stewardship. Jesus gives His time to do all that God wishes healing the sick and preaching. Yet, Jesus also makes time to
be alone in prayer. It is through prayer, spending time with
God, that we find the strength to do what God wishes us to
do. Be sure to find time every day to be with God.

SAINT OF THE WEEK
Presentation of the Lord
February 2
t the end of the fourth century, a woman named Etheria made a pilgrimage to
Jerusalem. Her journal, discovered in 1887, gives an unprecedented glimpse
of liturgical life there. Among the celebrations she describes is the Epiphany
(January 6), the observance of Christ’s birth, and the gala procession in honor of his
Presentation in the Temple 40 days later—February 15. (Under the Mosaic Law, a
woman was ritually “unclean” for 40 days after childbirth, when she was to present
herself to the priests and offer sacrifice—her “purification.” Contact with anyone who
had brushed against mystery—birth or death—excluded a person from Jewish
worship.) This feast emphasizes Jesus’ first appearance in the Temple more than
Mary’s purification.
A
The observance spread throughout the Western Church in the fifth and sixth centuries.
Because the Church in the West celebrated Jesus’ birth on December 25, the
Presentation was moved to February 2, 40 days after Christmas.
At the beginning of the eighth century, Pope Sergius inaugurated a candlelight procession; at the end of the same
century the blessing and distribution of candles which continues to this day became part of the celebration, giving
the feast its popular name: Candlemas.
Comment:
In Luke’s account, Jesus was welcomed in the temple by two elderly people, Simeon and the widow Anna. They
embody Israel in their patient expectation; they acknowledge the infant Jesus as the long-awaited Messiah. Early
references to the Roman feast dub it the feast of St. Simeon, the old man who burst into a song of joy which the
Church still sings at day’s end.
Quote:
“Christ himself says, ‘I am the light of the world.’ And we are the light, we ourselves, if we receive it from him....
But how do we receive it, how do we make it shine? ...The candle tells us: by burning, and being consumed in the
burning. A spark of fire, a ray of love, an inevitable immolation are celebrated over that pure, straight candle, as,
pouring forth its gift of light, it exhausts itself in silent sacrifice” (Paul VI).
