January 15, 2017 SECOND SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME ST. BRUNO CHURCH
Peaceful transition of power This Friday in Washington, D.C. we will transfer the entire executive power of the United States government from one president to another.
That is an amazing event. For more than two hundred and forty years our inaugurations have been the envy of the world. The most powerful nation in history also has the most peaceful transfer of power from one leader to the next. We can be grateful we have such a system in our country.
Despite a long, controversial, and sometimes bitterly fought campaign, it all ends with a few simple words of a presidential oath, and then the transition is complete. The votes of the electoral college made that happen.
We see this same transition in today’s Gospel. John the Baptist is at the height of his career as a preacher, prophet, and missionary of God’s mercy. Thousands of people travel many miles into barren desert to see and hear him. Yet he peacefully turns everything over to Jesus. He does not compete with Our Lord for the crowd’s attention, and gladly accepts the will of a different kind of “election.” The vote of one person made that happen …the vote of God.
There is another big difference. Presidents come and go. If you don’t like one president, wait four or maybe eight years and that person must leave. Not so with Our Lord. He remains with us as Our Savior always.
However, there is another campaign that Our Lord faces every day. He must campaign for our hearts. Will we smoothly transition the direction of our life over to Him? Will we let Him guide us? Will we let Him be our leader?
I am sure your answer changes with the different seasons of your life. When young, we want to be in charge. When sick or in need, we suddenly become humble and ask for His help. Better to be consistent all the time. John the Baptist turned over his entire life forever to Our Lord …and at the very peak of his career …a good example for us!
During Lent, in our new adult education program called “The University Series” we will offer over 30
different evening classes on our faith that can help us decide the most important election of our life.
Who will be in charge? You will receive the catalog of classes in two weeks. Don’t forget to vote!
Listen to Immaculate Heart Radio every day on
Station KHJ, AM 930. I am on from 6pm to
7pm, Monday thru Thursday
God Bless!

Safeguard the Children DID YOU KNOW?
Help children communicate by reading between the lines When children express that something is wrong at school or with
other activities, it's often the job of caregivers to read between the
lines to determine what's really going on. They might say "I'm
bored" and need your guidance finding a better school-life balance
or engaging in more challenging academic work. Ask them to give
examples and to help you understand what is going on. If the child
is still being vague, remind them that they can tell you anything and
that you'll listen with an open mind. As parents and caregivers, you
have the opportunity to help kids deal well with negative feelings
and challenges. And, if they are being mistreated in some way,
keeping an open line of communication with kids will enable you to
be their advocate. For a copy of the VIRTUS© article
“Communication Tip No. 15: When Children Complain about
School,” email [email protected] or call (213) 637-7227.
