"We believe that where any married people are living together in love, God is present, and good things happen, and lives are full." ~ Jack Shea
Please join us for this annual tradition at Old St. Pat's - one which will not be missed because of a global pandemic! The St. Valentine's Day Mass is a chance to carve out time to celebrate liturgy, community, and the mysterious and treacherous love called for and lived out in marriage. All are welcome to celebrate with us via Livestream, and all married couples are welcome to renew their expressions of commitment during the liturgy.
Instead of filing our limited number of available seats for this Mass, we will all celebrate this liturgy remotely: at home and in the places where we try to live into this sacramental reality of marriage each day.
"SEE YOU ON THE STEPS" Every Sunday after 10 am Livestream!
Do you sometimes wish you could just catch up with people after Mass like in the days before the pandemic? Well, now we can! Every Sunday after the 10 am Livestream anyone interested in chatting with others can join us “on the steps" of the church.
An OSP leader will be there on Zoom to welcome us and send us into small groups to chat about the liturgy and the season we are in. So, bring your coffee... let’s get to know one another and share in some good church.
We will share the link at the end of the Livestream each week or you can bookmark it ahead of time: bit.ly/osponthesteps

Awakenings | Sunday, January 31, 2021 awakenings By Bernadette Gibson A great leader listens not only to others, but also to His conscience and to the promptings of God.
Jesus’ teaching is different from that of the scribes and it has a powerful effect on those listening. We are told that Jesus teaches with authority. It is the beginning of a new era heralded by one whose power angers some and amazes others. While in the synagogue at Capernaum, he encounters a man who is possessed by an unclean spirit. The spirit knows who Jesus is and that His coming means the spirit’s demise. The people were amazed at Jesus teaching, for he taught with real authority - quite unlike the teachings that they were accustomed to. Ask anyone about the most important learning experiences of their lives, and they will tell a story about a relationship with a teacher. They’ll tell of that person’s efforts to expose them to new perspectives, an impression on the soul. In other words, love opens up its spur their reflection, and support them through the difficult life to another person. It goes beyond sentimental feelings. It moments. And, if you listen carefully, you’ll hear evidence of breaks down barriers. It exposes the heart. the teacher’s joy and fulfillment in their role. Such teachers take their place among the friends and family who shape our Given the goings on in the world today, the turmoil and sense of self and how we engage with the world. brokenness around us it is probably harder to hear Jesus’ command to make disciples of all people. God wants more It’s no wonder, therefore, that people were amazed by the from us as persons and more from us as the Church. We teaching of Jesus. Jesus spoke plainly of the approaching have a tendency to major in the minors - dialoguing with reign of God, calling people to turn their lives around in one another over doctrine and sociology and sexuality, response to this good news. Jesus taught, not in the mode of when the world is crying out for the hope of God and a just the rabbis of his day, but in the dynamic, confident voice of society. We were made to live justly in relation to God, to the prophets. I always imagine Jesus’ teaching had authority each other, and to creation. This justice which comes from because His capacity to generate excitement was deeply God is intimately personal. It is meant to serve people, to affected by His interest in the other, in hearing their voices, foster their well-being. People, then, are at the heart of true in recognizing their presence. We all know how it feels when justice. But justice is not merely personal and individual someone looks us in the eye and truly listens to us. I feel in – relationships are at the heart of justice. Justice is closely the marrow of my bones that Jesus was a listening leader. linked to shalom. Shalom means “peace,” but it is more than A great leader listens not only to others, but also to His the absence of conflict and wrongdoing. Shalom describes conscience and to the promptings of God. a state of material and spiritual wholeness, wellness, and fullness for people, both individually and corporately. Justice Jesus said many times, “Come, follow me.” His was a program can be thought of as both a foundation for shalom and a of “do what I do,” rather than “do what I say.” His innate result of shalom. Justice in our world, then, is about restoring brilliance would have permitted him to put on a dazzling shalom or wellbeing of individuals and relationships. It is display, but that would have left his followers far behind. concerned with upholding rules and laws only as they serve Instead, he walked and worked with those he was to serve. to overcome wrongs and restore people to rightness and His was not a long-distance leadership. He was not afraid wellness. We will see this even more clearly when we look of close friendships; he was not afraid that proximity to him at love as an invitation to become love. That's the virtue of would disappoint his followers. The leaven of true leadership love incarnated. That kind of love makes a difference. Christ cannot lift others unless we are with and serve those to has no hands, but our hands; no feet, but our feet. We are his be led. Jesus saw sin as wrong but also was able to see sin ambassadors, representing him to the world. And when we as springing from deep and unmet needs on the part of love as he as loved us, it will make the difference. People will the sinner. This permitted him to condemn the sin without notice. This kind of relational love is indispensable. condemning the individual. I guess I am suggesting that Jesus had authority because he risked to be present. Because Bernadette Gibson is the Director of Pastoral Care at Old St. Jesus knew love gets it hands dirty. It takes a chance. It goes Patrick's Church. out on a limb. It takes a gamble. Love makes a statement and leaves a legacy. It does the unexpected, surprising, and stirring thing. It performs acts that steal the heart and leave

“Climate change is the existential threat to humanity… This is not hyperbole. It’s real.And we have a moral obligation.” – U.S. President, Joe Biden
Just a month into a new calendar year and Administration, it’s common to focus our eyes toward a new chapter. We make new goals, we hold new hopes in our heart, we seek new opportunities and anticipate the moments to come. We start anew. We also pick up where we left off: we water the seeds we’ve already planted, develop the foundations we’ve laid, and we resume the good work. We are each called into the ongoing work of stewardship for our common home. The new Biden Administration is answering this call with the introduction of a number of executive orders designed to combat climate change.
Here are some of the executive actions introduced:
• Executive order prioritizing a response to the climate emergency.
• Creation of a climate task force focusing on environmental justice and renewable energy job creation.
• Executive order recommitting the U.S. to the Paris Agreement on climate change — an international pact aimed at curbing emissions that cause global warming. Trump withdrew from the agreement in 2017.
• Executive order revoking the Keystone XL permit— a 1,200-mile pipeline system projected to carry crude oil from Canada to the U.S. that cuts through Indigenous lands.
• Executive order pausing oil and gas leasing on federal land and in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
Undoing previous environmental rollbacks takes time, and surely there are no quick fixes in the climate emergency. However, a commitment to continue the work of caring for our common home and, in return, one another is a step in the right direction.
Meatless Mondays: Lent Edition
During the Season of Creation 2020, we invited members of the OSP community to learn about the impact our food choices have on the world around us. Many of you accepted the Meatless Mondays challenge and refrained from eating meat on Monday for six weeks.
As is our Catholic tradition, we abstain from meat on Friday during the Lenten season. We invite you to participate in our Lenten edition of Meatless Mondays for new and creative meatless recipes and more information on how your food choices can improve your health and the health of the planet.

“A new teaching with authority...” Mark 1:27
We were called to listen to God as servants, and then change our ways to act for justice. Today we are reminded to trust in the authority of God’s word. Anxiety and judgement by the world may accompany your actions, but trust in God. Ask our new administration to: Rescind all Muslim/refugee/asylum bans and policies; resettle 100,000 refugees in FY21 with increases to follow; ensure sufficient appropriations to rebuild infrastructure. Loving God, help us to bring your compassion, fairness and morality to immigration and refugee policies in our country.

Richard Moore Founder & CEO of Children in Crossfire Join Us For a Free Video Conversation Learning to See Again - but Differently Friday, February 5, 2021 Program Goes Live @ 12 Noon Registration Required
Within the space of one month in 1972, the family of young Richard Moore in Derry, Northern Ire- land, would endure two family tragedies. One of them would profoundly change ten-year-old Richard’s life forever. As Richard grew up, finished school, and entered the business world, he began to recognize the conditions that had enabled him to rebound: not only a loving family, but also a quality education and a supportive community offering him countless opportunities to grow and to succeed. In his mind’s eye, he began to see all the children across the world who were not so lucky. In his 30s, he sold his business and began the international charity Children in Crossfire to help them. Since 1996, Moore has assisted thousands of children in Tanzania and Ethiopia, focusing his atten- tion on early childhood education, so vital in a region where many children do not start their educa- tional journey until age 8 or 9, having missed out during their most important developmental years. Recognized across the world for his charity work, Moore made a friend in the Dalai Lama, who calls him “my hero.” Join us as Richard Moore tells his extraordinary story of what he has been able to see with the eyes of his heart and faith.
