Welcome to the Parish of Saint Augustin
Our mission is to give glory to God and seek the salvation of souls by making Jesus Christ known and
loved through worship, evangelization, community, fellowship, reconciliation and stewardship.
February 2, 2020
“Now, Master, you may let your servant go in peace, according to your word, for my eyes have seen your
salvation, which you prepared in the sight of all the peoples: a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and glory for
your people Israel.” Very often, having more light is not something we desire as it forces us to confront
something we really do not want to see. There can be comfort found in darkness. It has an eerie sense of
security to it. We do not have to challenge ourselves or be challenged and can simply exist in some fabricated
state of self-fabricated blissfulness. Jesus came to bring light, and it is a light that is resisted by many and
hated by some. It is a light that causes us to see things as they really are and not as we would want or need them
to be. It is no wonder then that Simeon boldly and honestly proclaims to Mary, “Behold, this child is destined
for the fall and rise of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be contradicted and you yourself a sword will
pierce so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.” We have to take the Gospel message as it is and
not just use those parts that are useful to us or more palatable. Taking Jesus at face value can and will lead to
turmoil and dissention. Hearts will be pierced. Whether we like it, Jesus’ proclamation of what the world God
created really ought to look like has real and absolute social implications.
It has a lot to say about how we treat our brothers and sisters: spiritually, personally, economically, and
globally. It has everything to do with the poor, the immigrant, the scared, the unborn, the vulnerable, the sick,
and the broken. The light opens us to a challenging, table-turning experience that may not be something we
want to see but shows us where we need to be.

JANUARY STEWARDSHIP SAINT: DIXIE WADDELL
January’s Stewardship Saint has played an active role in the life our parish for
more than 60 years. Dixie Waddell became involved in St Augustin when she
and her late husband, Ike moved into the neighborhood to run an area
business. Dixie has actively volunteered for our parish ever since.
Today, we know Dixie as the dedicated 5 pm Mass Sacristan and a faithful
Eucharistic Minister. Or, you may recognize her friendly voice and ready smile
as a volunteer in the office. What you might not know about Dixie is that she
has shared her gifts with the parish in innumerable ways over the years. Her
involvement is an example of the power of invitation. Time and again when
asked to lend a hand to a task big or small, visible or behind the scenes, Dixie
has said yes! Beyond her parish family, Dixie is the proud mother of a son and
a daughter, 4 grandchildren, 3 great-grandchildren and 1 great-great
grandchild. They are blessed to have her play an active role in their lives on a
daily basis. Thank you, Dixie, for generously sharing your gifts with our
parish family and being a great example of stewardship!
