We’re back in Ordinary Time, everyone! Let’s look at what it              facebook.com/magdalensoha
means.

It does not mean “ordinary” as in plain or bland. This time
comes from the word “number,” to number out the weeks                      instagram.com/magdalensoha
between Christmas and Lent. Easter moves with the Vernal

Equinox, so these weeks help fill in the gaps so the weeks line
up.                                                                ST. VINCENT DE PAUL SOCIETY

beginning of His ministry, He’s doing extraordinary things.        brianfallon@archstl.org

Jesus asks two of John the Baptist’s disciples, “What are you      smmadmin@sbcglobal.net
looking for?” What a fitting question for us to answer, too.

The disciples answer with another question. They want to find      (Tues. mornings only)
Him so they ask, “Where are you staying?”
                                                                   MAINTENANCE

It’s a question we can ask Jesus, too. Where are you staying?      314.352.2111 ext.7
Not so much a house or structural dwelling, but spiritually.       mightystone6079@sbcglobal.net
