Early in the Gospel of John, as Jesus begins The scriptures provide us with some great insight if things are to to accumulate followers, you do not find Jesus change. John’s gospel does not simply address how Jesus running around the Sea of Galilee asking all sorts gathered his “inner circle” of followers, the gospel was also of people, “Hey buddy, do you know who I am? speaking to the community of that time and how they were going to He does not place a “groupie wanted” ad in the increase the number of those who would embrace Jesus as the local newsletter, nor does he wear a sandwich board telling folks Messiah. This was about personally inviting others to come to know “the end is near and I am the one to follow.” For the author of John’s Jesus, to be part of the community, to hear the Gospel message, to Gospel the way to attract followers is to have someone point the be baptized and be open to the Spirit. The author of John’s gospel person out or to invite someone to come and see what you have understood that if the community was to grow and the message of personally experienced – there is the rub, the need to get personally Jesus was to be dispersed it had to be done on a personal level by involved if we are to come to know Jesus and to be his disciple. those who were personally involved and committed to that message In my personal experience, when it comes to increasing the and to Jesus. What about us? Are we personally committed to number of volunteers for any kind of project we will do almost Jesus and whom do we need to invite to come and see? anything we can but personally ask someone. We will place ads in We are living in times where we cannot presume a person the bulletin, send out emails, use Facebook, but we will rarely tap knows, cares about or has even heard about Jesus (whether someone on the shoulder and say, “I need your help, will you baptized or not). We must be disciples who are willing to invite consider…? Please understand I am not pointing any fingers here, I others to “come and see” if the command of Jesus, to go to the am just as guilty as others are when it comes to this issue – though ends of the Earth, is to be fulfilled. The ones we need to invite, not I am getting better. (I hope!) We all have our own reasons why we badger, may be our own children and so many others we know well. do not ask; fear, ego, rejection and the list could go on forever. The The question is, are you willing to ask? problem is that without the step of asking and/or inviting, the May your new year be filled with many blessings, situation does not change and all we do is continue to complain of Fr. Howard MASS UPDATE Fr. Howard will be taking vacation January 16th-27th. He was able to find help out priests for all weekend Masses however, because of COVID-19, help outs for daily Masses were not so easily found. Because of this, the DAILY Masses on Monday, January 18th through Monday, January 25th are cancelled. Only these five daily Masses will be cancelled. The Mass intentions associated with those days will be moved. In addition, morning Reconciliation on Saturday, January 23 will also be cancelled. If you would like to attend a Mass or Reconciliation elsewhere during the week, St. Frances Cabrini has 8am Mass Monday-Saturday and Reconciliation on Tuesdays from 5:30pm-6:30pm and Saturdays at 8:30am.

It is a very simple job. Training provided. Attend Mass and advance the slides during the songs. That’s pretty much it. We would happily take anyone in middle school, high school, college, or any adult! If you are interested or want more information contact Lindsey at 334-3038. Thanks! LOW GLUTEN HOSTS For anyone with a gluten allergy, Holy Angels does have Low Gluten hosts. It is low gluten and not gluten free because to be used at Mass, the host needs to have some aspect of gluten in it. If you need a low gluten host please tell the priest or deacon before Mass so they can have it with them during Communion. DON’T GET SCAMMED! Just a reminder that if you get an email or text message claiming to be from Fr. Howard and wanting you to buy gift cards it is a scam. Fr. Howard will never ask you to do that, especially over email or text. If you are ever wondering if a message you have received is real or fake, feel free to call the office and check! We would rather people call and verify than get scammed. SNOW SHOVELING AT HOLY ANGELS Holy Angels is hiring snow shovelers. Hours vary depending on snowfalls.
