    Mass Obligation Dispensation Extended

    Archbishop Blair has extended the dispensation from

    the Sunday obligation through Tuesday, February 16,

    2021.

    Mass from St. James Church is broadcast weekly on

    YouTube.com. To view the YouTube Mass or for com-

    plete Mass attendance protocols, please see the parish

    website, www.stjamesmanchester.org.

    Please be reminded that the requirement to wear a face

    mask when in church pertains to everyone

    and includes private prayer time, adoration

    as well as Mass attendance.

    The Online Giving option available to all parishioners

    is an easy, convenient and secure way to make regular

    offertory donations. In addition, Online Giving may

    also be used to make donations on Holy Days, for sec-

    ond collections (i.e., Saint James School, seasonal shar-

    ing and St. Vincent de Paul) as well as Archdiocesan

    collections which occur throughout the year. Taking

    advantage of Online Giving eliminates the need to

    write checks and keep track of envelopes. It also bene-

    fits the parish because of the consistency of the support

    and it eliminates the cost of printing and mailing enve-

    lopes. To learn more or to sign up go to the Parish web-

    site, www.stjamesmanchester.org; scroll to the bottom

    of the page and click on Online Giving. If you have

    questions or need additional information, call Marisa

    Howard, business manager, 860-643-4129.

    JUST A REMINDER…

    When dropping off donations or items for the rectory,

    please use the slot in the door. Please do not leave

    anything in the black USPS mailbox on the building.

    Thank you for your cooperation.

    EVERYDAY STEWARDSHIP - RECOGNIZE GOD IN

    YOUR ORDINARY MOMENTS

    Give Until It Hurts

    One of the characteristics of Everyday Stewardship is to

    be committed — to persevere daily in a way of life ac-

    knowledging that everything belongs to God.

    I know, I know. Easier said than done.

    Just ask Zebedee. It’s quite an image we get from the

    Gospel, after all. “So they left their father Zebedee in

    the boat along with the hired men and followed him.”

    There was Zebedee, about his business, mending nets

    with his two sons, who were undoubtedly his best

    workers — they had to have been more dedicated than

    the hired men, who worked for wages rather than for

    family. And in an instant off they go, following this

    strange man.

    I don’t know about you, but if my kids left me on a hot

    summer day to finish the lawn by myself, I wouldn’t be

    too happy.

    But Zebedee must have been someone quite special.

    Perhaps he realized that his sons didn’t belong to him

    — not really. They belonged to God, and from the be-

    ginning of time, it had been appointed that they would

    be among the first disciples of Christ. He passed, he

    called, they followed, and Zebedee obliged. He simply

    went back to mending his nets, I imagine.

    Zebedee already understood what St. Teresa of Calcutta

    would say millennia later: “Give until it hurts.”

    “You’re wasting my time.” “I’ve done so much for her;

    she owes me this.” How often do we think things, and

    even people and relationships, belong to us? The truth

    is none of them do. We must be ready, as Zebedee was,

    to surrender them to God when He comes walking

    past. — Tracy Earl Welliver, MTS©LPi�

    NEW FOR LENT:

    A PERSONAL ENCOUNTER WITH THE

    POWER OF THE GOSPEL

    Lent is an important season in the Church’s liturgical

    year. It is the time when we take stock of where we

    are in our faith so as to prepare for the death and

    resurrection of our Savior. Often we lose sight of the

    point of this season because we get caught up in our-

    selves: how hard it is to fast; how we fail at fasting;

    and just waiting for the season to be over at Easter.

    Because of this, we often arrive at Easter with our lives

    no more changed that they were on Ash Wednesday.

    A way that our parish is seeking to prepare for Jesus

    and experience true transformation in our lives in this

    powerful season is by engaging with a new program

    from Ascension. This program is The Ascension Len-

    ten Companion. This resource follows the Gospels for

    each Sunday of Lent so we can better prepare for Mass

    and grow closer to Jesus each day. It has daily medita-

    tions, space for journaling, original sacred artwork and

    weekly videos that will keep us on track.

    The program kicks off on February 17 after the 7 p.m.

    Mass at St. James Church. Meetings will take place

    Wednesdays during Lent at 7 p.m. Masks and social

    distancing will be required. A Zoom session will also

    be available on Friday evenings if preferred.

    Each participant will receive The Ascension Lenten

    Companion to accompany him or her throughout the

    entire Lenten season. This is an opportunity for our

    whole community to enter into the season of Lent in-

    tentionally and receive the grace God is waiting to

    give us in this holy season. Join us and take full ad-

    vantage of this transformative experience.

    Books are limited so you must pre-register by calling

    Karen at 860-916-4298 or emailing

    [email protected]. Please include a

    phone number and whether you prefer the Zoom or

    live class. The cost of the workbook is $10 and a check

    made payable to St. James Parish is preferred.

    GOSPEL MEDITATION - ENCOURAGE DEEPER UN-

    DERSTANDING OF SCRIPTURE

    January 24, 2021

    3

    rd

    Sunday in Ordinary Time

    It was a normal day by all accounts, but John just wasn’t

    feeling himself. He was a little lightheaded and out of

    sorts. Later in the afternoon, he experienced a sharp pain

    in his chest and arm. Quick thinking and action brought

    John to the emergency department with a diagnosis of a

    significant heart attack. Surviving this ordeal, he found

    himself face to face with his cardiologist, having an hon-

    est conversation about things that needed to change. “I

    came close to death,” John found himself thinking. Then

    came the remorse. He was a young man with a loving

    wife and children who were very close to facing life

    without him. John found himself with intense sorrow for

    living an unchecked and self-indulgent life that almost

    brought him to his demise. He wanted to change.

    We all have our wake-up calls. We have experiences and

    encounters that force us to really think twice about choic-

    es we have made and directions we have taken. Often,

    we find ourselves looking at those we have hurt square

    in the eye and wallowing in our foolishness. We regretta-

    bly realize that we have allowed our needs to lure us into

    making some cruel mistakes. We impulsively say things

    and flippantly do things that reveal our unredeemed and

    unhealed self. It is a self we stumble over and try to tame

    but can’t quite seem to master and control. Help!

    We spin our wheels, naively thinking that we will some-

    how, perhaps through persistence, get ourselves un-

    stuck. But, we don’t. We just get out of the car, feeling

    very helpless, and ignorantly look at the mess we got

    ourselves into. Did we ever think to ask someone for

    help? Or, taken the advice of One who is wiser and avoid

    this route altogether? “Come after me,” are words that

    Jesus says to all of us. In order to heed his invitation, we

    must leave our ego-self behind and follow.

    When we really see and understand the freedom, peace,

    justice, and love he offers, we find ourselves with such

    sorrow in our hearts for how foolish and silly we have

    been. All the misguided choices and sinful actions come

    full view and we see how risky our random impassioned

    behaviors really have been. Repentance is beautiful.

    When done with a sincere and contrite heart, it directs us

    to the glory that can be ours, ignites us with the chal-

    lenge of living a life in service of others and reminds us

    that all is well.

    MISSALETTE ALTERNATIVES

    Due to restrictions being observed because of the

    coronavirus, missalettes were made available to parish-

    ioners to take home to use when they attend Mass. The

    missalettes for the current time period have all been

    distributed and there are no more to give out. Howev-

    er, if you did not get a missalette and would like to par-

    ticipate in Mass with appropriate prayer responses and

    readings, the websites recommended below provide

    alternative resources:

  • Third Sunday in Ordinary Time�

    Who is a Parishioner of Saint James Parish?

    While the answer may seem obvious to some, others fre-

    quently ask for clarification on requirements for being con-

    sidered a parishioner. We hope the following helps those

    who may be unsure.

    First, a parishioner is formally registered with Saint James

    Parish. A faithful parishioner attends Mass regularly, par-

    ticipates in church activities, and follows the Canon Law

    admonition to contribute to the support of the parish.

    Parishioners have their children baptized here and enroll

    them in our CCD program. Assuming they meet other re-

    quirements, they are eligible to receive parish certificates

    enabling them to serve as Godparents or Confirmation

    sponsors. They may be married here, and they may have

    their funerals here.

    Sometimes people assume they are parishioners because

    they’ve been coming here for years, although they may

    have never formally registered. If you’re not sure if you

    are registered, please call Carole at the parish office,

    860-643-4129.�

    CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL COLLECTION 2021

    The Catholic High School Collection, occurring in all

    parishes of the Archdiocese on the weekend of January

    23/24, supports the outstanding education offered at

    our Catholic secondary schools by providing funds for

    tuition assistance, technology enhancements, curricu-

    lar improvements, and marketing, all of which are so

    critical during this ongoing pandemic. Please consider

    investing in the exceptional academics, solid faith for-

    mation, and spirit of service at our high schools by

    making a gift to this year’s Catholic High School Col-

    lection on January 23/24.

    LIVING A LIFE OF PRAYER

    Our prayer lives should not be limited to a single hour

    on Sunday mornings. In fact, the richer our prayer

    lives are throughout the week, the more fully we will

    be able to enter into the Sunday celebration of the Eu-

    charist. Here are some ways to make your daily life

    more prayerful:

    �� Try attending daily Mass at least once a week.

    �� Stop in church before or after work or on your

    lunch hour for fifteen minutes of quiet prayer

    before the Blessed Sacrament.

    �� Make it a practice to say grace before every

    meal—even if you are eating in the car.

    �� Schedule time for family prayer at least once a

    week. This prayer can be as simple as saying the

    Our Father or a decade of the Rosary together.

    �� Take time during the week to read or listen to the

    readings for the upcoming Sunday. The readings

    are available online at www.usccb.org/bible.

    �� Begin your day with a brief prayer of thanksgiv-

    ing to God, offering your day to Him.

    �� End your day with an examination of conscience,

    looking at your successes and failures in what

    you have failed to do. If you are aware of serious

    sin, receive the Sacrament of Penance before you

    receive Holy Communion again.
