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 />

Get involved and receive alerts on legislation with messages to send to<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 />

of lives.<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 />
