bring the message home
Children: The wise men traveled far for Jesus. What would you do for him?
Teens: The magi changed their plans. Do you give God permission to change yours?
Adults: Like the wise men, how can you step out of your comfort zone and follow Jesus?
(bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/010221.cfm)
January 2 Readings The epiphany of the lord
First Reading: Isaiah 60:1-6: Upon you the Lord shines, and over you appears his glory.
Responsorial: Psalm 72: Lord, every nation on earth will adore you.
Second Reading: Ephesians 3:2-3a, 5-6: We are partners in the promise of Christ through the Gospel.
Gospel: Matthew 2:1-12: After following the star to Bethlehem, the magi present their gifts to Jesus.
Epiphany, the feast of revelation
Divinity of Jesus is revealed through visit of three kings
Celebrated 12 days after Christmas, the Epiphany (from the Greek word meaning revelation), is one
of the oldest feast days on the calendar. Traditions all over the world range from gift-giving to king
cakes to blessing of homes.
Through the visit of Caspar, Melchior and Balthazar to Bethlehem, Jesus is revealed as the son of
God who came for everyone.
The kings present gold, frankincense and myrrh to Jesus to recognize his divinity and status. The
gifts also anticipate Jesus’s crucifixion as they are traditional burial herbs.
Welcom e!
The Catholic Church of St. Ann is committed to creating a place for everyone to make a connection and
grow in faith through prayer, lifelong learning, service, discipleship and pastoral support. We invite you
to be part of our family and make yourself at home here. St. Ann’s values and respects your life, with all
its personal backgrounds and richness, its physical and family uniqueness, and in all its beautiful variety.
Interested in becoming a Catholic? The Order of Christian Initiation programs are for you! We offer
programs for adults, teens and children who are entering the faith.
We’re glad you’re here! Visit st-ann.org/welcome to learn more about our parish.
Happy Birthday, Father Ray!
Our pastor celebrates on Jan. 2
If you’d like to give Father Ray a card to help mark his birthday, you can drop
it by the parish office. You can also send him birthday wishes at rcadranms@st-ann.org.
stewardship
At St. Ann’s, we encourage people
to become disciples through word,
works, worship and sacrament, the
four pillars of La Salette life.
With more than 80 ministries, we
hope it is easy for you to find a place
to start growing closer to Jesus.

Where does your faith fit in
when you make those annual resolutions?
Here are some ideas for adding a spiritual
component to your commitments.
Read the Bible. Join one of the Encounter Bible studies st-ann.org/encounter or try the Bible in a Year
podcast with Father Mike Schmitz of Ascension Press, tinyurl.com/y52hqmtl.
Get to know the saints. Learn about a new saint every week or month and try to imitate his or her life
and virtues. Ask for their intercession. Use these sites to help:
• franciscanmedia.org/saint-of-the-day
• mycatholic.life/saints/saints-of-the-liturgical-year/
• aleteia.org/author/meg-hunter-kilmer/page/3/ (biographies of 50 saints)
Sign up for a holy hour. The Catholic bishops have declared 2022 the Year of the Eucharist. What
better use of time than to spend it with Jesus? Sign up for Eucharistic adoration (let’s face it, there is more
accountability when we sign up for something). Visit st-ann.org/adoration for details.
Commit to daily silent prayer. Commit to a certain amount of time every day just being still before
the Lord. Start with 15 minutes a day, and try to stretch it to 20 for Lent, then go from there. Need help on
how to do it? Read Becky Eldredge’s book “The Inner Chapel.” It will transform your quiet prayer time.
Go on a retreat. It can be really difficult to find a way to leave home, work and family, but a retreat can
be life-changing. Make a commitment to go on a retreat this year, whether directed or silent. Try Ignatius
House, ignatiushouse.org, or the Monastery of the Holy Spirit, trappist.net/plan-your-visit/retreats.
Change what you listen to. Sanctify your commute or listening time by infusing it with Christ.
Instead of Top 40, try some Audrey Assad, Matt Maher or Ed Bolduc. Turn off the talk radio and listen to a
podcast. Try one of these options:
• Father John Riccardo: youwerebornforthis.fireside.fm
• Ave Explores: aveexplores.fireside.fm/episodes
• Abiding Together: abidingtogetherpodcast.com
• Pints with Jack: pintswithjack.com
• More options: tinyurl.com/3d7y6fhz
New Year’s resolutions are hard to keep, but we belong to a church that continually gives us a
second chance. So, make these commitments and set yourself a reminder for March 1 (just before Ash
Wednesday) to check in on how things are going and try to start fresh for Lent. Then do the same thing for
Easter, for Ordinary Time and again for Advent. By the end of the year, you will have made a real change!
