The Third Sunday in Ordinary Time<br />
In the Gospel today we heard that Jesus began<br />
his preaching by calling on people to repent.<br />
(Mark 1:15) Repentance, as you know, means a<br />
change of mind. It means turning our minds<br />
again to God. So we begin following Jesus in<br />
our minds, inside in our own heads. No wonder<br />
that Jesus says in Mark 12:30, “You must<br />
love the Lord your God with all your heart,<br />
with all your soul, with all your mind and with all your strength.”<br />
Why am I singling out following Jesus with our mind? Because there are<br />
so many attempts to get at your mind, to feed your mind with unchristian<br />
rubbish. Much of what you could see on TV would not help us to<br />
have the same mind as Jesus. Serious sin is glamorized and presented as<br />
normal and must be having an effect on society. We could say the same<br />
about newspapers.<br />
Maryland Bishops Issue Statement on Poverty<br />
Page 3<br />
Our minds are like sponges; they soak up dirt just like a sponge. We can<br />
wash a sponge and we can wash our minds. We can wash our minds by<br />
filling them with what is good and holy and cutting out from our lives<br />
what contaminates our minds. Yes we can become contaminated but we<br />
can also decontaminate ourselves! Do you need to be decontaminated? If<br />
you do, ask Jesus and Mary to help you. What efforts do you make to fill<br />
your mind with what is good?<br />
Fr. Tommy Lane<br />
(www.frtommylane.com)<br />
Maryland is one of the wealthiest states in the nation, yet, in Baltimore<br />
City, one in four residents lives in poverty and, statewide, one in five<br />
Maryland households with children reported not having enough money to<br />
feed themselves or their families.<br />
Maryland’s bishops have issued a statement urging Catholics to help their<br />
neighbors living in poverty. The statement coincides with U.S. Conference<br />
of Catholic Bishops’ designation of January as Poverty in America<br />
Awareness Month.<br />

your elected officials by signing up for the Catholic Advocacy Network,<br />

January 25—the Conversion of St. Paul<br />
Paul’s entire life can be explained in terms of one<br />
experience—his meeting with Jesus on the road to<br />
Damascus. One sentence determined his theology:<br />
“I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting” (Acts 9:5b).<br />
Jesus was mysteriously identified with the loving<br />
group of people Saul had been running down like<br />
criminals. Jesus, he saw, was the mysterious fulfillment<br />
of all he had been blindly pursuing.<br />
Now all his energy was harnessed to one goal—being a slave of Christ in<br />
the ministry of reconciliation, an instrument to help others experience<br />
the one Savior.<br />

Quick Questions<br />
Q. Why did Christ visit hell after his death?<br />
A. He didn't, if you mean by hell the place of the damned.<br />
There would have been no purpose in his going there.<br />
The Apostles' Creed contains this line in Latin: descendit ad<br />
inferos. In older English the word inferos was rendered as<br />
"hell," but it was understood not to mean the place of the<br />
damned. It meant the temporary state where the just who<br />
died in pre-Christian times were kept, waiting for heaven<br />
to be opened to them. This place is commonly called the<br />
Limbo of the Fathers.<br />
Jesus referred to this place when he said, "As Jonah was in<br />
the whale's belly for three days and three nights, so shall<br />
the Son of Man be in the heart of the Earth three days and<br />
three nights" (Mt 12:40). The expression "heart of the<br />
Earth" doesn't mean the grave, but the underworld, what<br />
the Jews called Sheol, which was thought to be located at<br />
the center of the Earth. Sheol wasn't a place of the<br />
damned, but a place where departed souls wandered.<br />
Peter also refers to the Limbo of the Fathers: "It was in his<br />
spirit that he went and preached to the spirits who lay in<br />
prison" (1 Pt 3:19).<br />

less fortunate members of our community. Our contributions<br />
to the parish and Archdiocese let us act as our Savior Jesus<br />
Christ by enabling our ministries and services to touch thousands<br />
of lives.<br />

our parish goal of $86,300 plus 50% of any additional funds<br />
received. Please answer the Archbishop’s request and make a<br />
contribution or pledge as you are able. All pledges can be<br />

Winter Weather Worries<br />
Winter weather is coming and that means ice<br />

to get to church. But parish bills keep<br />
growing during the winter, including increased<br />

You can make sure your parish support doesn’t<br />
stop just when we need it the most. Check<br />
out our simple, safe and secure online giving program link on<br />
the parish website at www.ststephenbradshaw.org. Currently<br />
93 families are giving online. Please consider joining that growing<br />
number of dedicated givers!<br />
We are most grateful to all those who make every effort to give<br />
consistently whether electronically or through the weekly offering<br />
basket. It really helps us plan and meet our budget.<br />
