Sacrament of BaptismRegistered parishioners who plan to have their baby baptized should notify the parish office at the beginning of the pregnancy and register for Baptism Preparation, which is held monthly. One godparent must be Catholic, at least 16 years of age, registered in the parish where he lives, fully initiated (received the Sacraments of Baptism, Confirmation, and First Communion), and Catholic in good standing (e.g., married in the Catholic Church, participating in Sunday Mass). He must obtain a letter of eligibility from his current parish. One practicing non-Catholic Christian may also be admitted as a Christian Witness. The next class is January 12th at 6 pm (Zoom). Please contact [email protected], at least one week before the class, for more information and to register.
Sacrament of Marria eCouples planning to marry should contact the Parish Office six months prior to the wedding date. Wedding times are Saturday at either 10am, 11am or 1pm.

Everyone who comes to Mass, 5 years old and older, MUST wear a face mask.
Assist with
counting and balancing weekend mass collections. We have 5 count
teams, but due to COVID we only can have 2 members per team right now—many are down to 2 members and we are looking to have backup members. If you are available on Sunday morning every 5 weeks and have the ability to use a calculator and/or computer, we need your help. Training provided along with fellowship and coffee.

Reflection on the Gospel: Today’s reading offers three signif-icant messages: 1. The clothing of John recalls the austere dress of the prophet Elijah described in 2 Kings 1:8. 2. Although Jesus will be baptized by John, it is clear that John understands his sub-ordinate role in the Jesus event. 3. Through the life-giving bap-tism with the Holy Spirit, Jesus will create a new people of God. For our shared or personal reflection: After a brief pause for silent reflection share your answers, ideas or feelings. 1. How can I make better prepare for the celebration of Christmas even if my family is going through financial difficulties? Explain. 2. Am I aware that I am not “the messiah,” but simply one who announc-es his coming? Have I ever tried to be the “center” of my family’s Christmas celebration?

Please remember the less fortunate in our greater community by donating food items for their family Christmas dinner. There are several ways you can help:
• Place one or more of the requested items in a paper bag with no handles - the handles break off easily.
• Contribute $15 in the “Turkey Envelope” for the family to purchase a turkey or ham. Place the envelope in the offertory basket
or take it to the parish office.
Please bring your food items to the Parish Office garage during regular office hours the week of November 30 - December 4. Please give us a call or ring the bell when you arrive and we will open the garage door for you to place your items on the table. We will also have a drive-thru collection for the Christmas Baskets from 12:30-1:30 pm on December 6th. The drive-thru collection will be at the Parish Office garage.
