Inspiration for the Week
We carry a greater depth of self-confidence and
chance of succeeding when we have affirmation, a
sense of direction and clear purpose in life. Each of
these serve to provide our lives with meaning, allowing
us to clearly establish priorities and goals. They also
are necessary for integrity, which is the conviction and
single mindedness that keeps us grounded in the truth
of who we are. “You are my beloved Son; with you I
am well pleased.” Jesus’ baptism provides him with
exactly what he needs to get about the business of his
mission as the Son of God. He is given what he needs
to be successful in fulfilling the purpose for which he
was sent. Our baptisms give us these same gifts. We
receive the affirmation we need from God, knowing
that we are one of his beloved daughters and sons. We
are gifted with the direction and clear purpose we need
in order to be productive stewards and faithful
Christians. Are we ready and willing to answer the call?

Questions of the Week Reflect and Respond to Scripture
First Reading: Isaiah was called to be a prophet to bring
justice and freedom to those suffering, to be a “light for the
nations.” How do see yourself serving others in need in your life?
Second Reading: John teaches his community that God Himself has
“testified on behalf of His Son.” In what way does this divine
assurance help strengthen your faith? Gospel Question: The
preaching of John the Baptist and the baptism of Jesus is the
opening scene in the Gospel of Mark. In Jesus’ baptism, the Father,
Son, and Spirit were fully present. As a baptized Christian, can
you think of a time when you experienced God’s presence?

Recognize God in Your Ordinary Moments
When God Whispers
“You don’t need to shout. My hearing works just fine.” Are you a
parent that has used that one on your kids? I’m not sure at what
age they realize that the volume of their voice doesn’t correlate
to the likelihood of receiving a favorable reply — it might be
sometime in the teenage years, when the talking slows down
altogether. But I’ve got to admit, it would be nice if God always
gave us a loud and dramatic sign when He wanted something — the
booming voice and the torn-open heavens (“This is my beloved Son!”)
really get the message across. Sometimes I find myself envious of
the Apostles, who were able to witness such things in person. The
fact of the matter is, in the year 2021, God is more likely to
speak in a whisper than in a shout. The prophet Isaiah forewarns
that Christ himself will not be a noisemaker — for all his
preaching, he will not cry out or shout to bring forth justice to
the nations. His way is altogether different than that. We are not
the Apostles, and we do not have the privilege of seeing the Holy
Spirit descend on Christ like a dove. But here’s the good news: God
doesn’t need to shout. Our spiritual hearing works just fine. We
just have to
(Continued on page 8)
CHRISTMAS Reprise Starting Monday, the Christmas season is
officially behind us. Thanks to all who made this season an
exceptionally joyous and prayerful one for all who worshipped with
us, and for those who experienced the real beauty of the season
through our caring and outreach to so many others. It was indeed a
Christmas like no other and one like none any of us had ever
experienced. Special thanks to those involved in liturgical
ministries — lectors, cantors, musicians, the art and environment
people who prepared two spaces for worship (unfortunately, because
of the pandemic, only one was needed), greeters and ushers, all who
worked hard behind the scenes and covered additional services
beyond our regular weekend fare, and worked through the busyness of
several liturgies in a few days time. Thanks to those who served in
various outreach ways: helping pack or distribute food and gifts
from the Giving Tree, extending hospitality to those who came
during these busy days for any reason, particularly to those who
came reporting loved ones who were seriously ill, or loved ones who
had died during this holiday season. A few year's ago we began to
consider a parish Christmas gift. One year it was a completely new
sound system. The gift for 2020 hasn't really been finalized,
though it could be the new sign on Jefferson. Like the “family
Christmas present” of a family vacation that can’t take place
during the holidays but needs to be scheduled a little later in the
year, we'll let you know what our gift this year will be. Just like
Santa's list -- it's pretty long, and we probably won't be able to
get everything on it this year. Maybe the gift will be a wonderful
gathering this summer, when we can all gather safely and in person,
enjoying food and drink, and each others' company. The work of
Christmas though, the wonder and mystery of the Word become Flesh
and Emmanuel, “God-with-us”, dwelling among us, must continue as
the Ordinary Time task of the Church, in 2021 probably more than
ever:
To find the lost To heal the broken To feed the hungry To
release the captive To rebuild the nations To bring peace among
brothers and sisters and all peoples To make music in the heart… To
share a little light… We continue to reflect on this great mystery,
and make Christ present throughout 2021 as a new decade continues
to unfold. Watch for a variety of experiences and opportunities
throughout the year to make each of those tasks happen. The work of
unleashing the Gospel and being Sent on Mission is a year-round
commitment for us. On a more personal note, I want to take this
opportunity to thank everyone for the many thoughtful remembrances
— gifts, cards, goodies, etc. — that I received during the
Christmas holidays. I truly appreciated your kindness. Thank you
for your generosity to the parish as well during these days; I
thank God for all we are able to do together to make St. Lucy what
we are in the Lord’s name. God’s blessings for a peace-filled, holy
and HEALTHY 2021.
Ordinary Time This year, there are only five Sundays of Ordinary
Time between the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord and Ash
Wednesday. (Folks reminded me after

announcing the important Church feasts for 2021, that Easter is
just three months away!) Liturgically, such a short period of
Ordinary Time can feel like a valley between the Advent/Christmas
and Lent/Triduum/Easter cycles. So, too, can this season feel like
a lull in the broader culture, especially in the wintry northern
latitudes of the United States. (Better read Michigan winter.) Even
when the sun shines, a chill often fills the air. Although the days
are lengthening, they can still seem short and dark. At our worst
moments during this season, our feelings echo Job's lament from the
reading for the Fifth Sunday: "is not man's life on earth a
drudgery?... I have been assigned months of misery… the night drags
on." And Job probably knew nothing of the coronavirus! When we feel
surrounded by darkness, the Eucharistic liturgy is all the more
significant because it is where we are drawn into the "compelling
love of Christ" who "sets [us] on fire" (Constitution on the Sacred
Liturgy, #10). During Ordinary Time, we pray that God will "direct
our action" so that "we may abound in good words" (Collect Third
Sunday). As ever, we turn to the Word of God for such direction --
the living Word that is a "lamp for my feet, a light for my path"
(Psalm 119:105). On the Second Sunday, (next Sunday) the First
Reading (Samuel 3:3-10, 19) and the Responsorial Psalm (Psalm 40)
invite us to pray, "Here I am, Lord," and submit ourselves
completely to the will of God. Subsequent Sundays offer a variety
of Old Testament readings and semi-continuous readings from St.
Paul's First Letter to the Corinthians and Chapter 1 of the Gospel
according to Mark. Mark's account jumps quickly into Jesus'
ministry, and on these Sundays, we do as well. We are called to
abandon our nets and follow him (Third Sunday: Mark :14-20), and,
with the Apostles, we witness him driving out unclean spirits
(Fourth Sunday : Mark 1:21-28), curing various diseases and driving
out demons (Fifth Sunday: Mark 1:29-39), and cleansing a leper
(Sixth Sunday: Mark 1:40-45). Just as the disciples were amazed by
these actions, so too are we astonished anew. The same baby boy
whose birth we celebrated at Christmas is grown and doing wondrous
deeds -- fulfilling the prophetic message that we heard throughout
the Advent and Christmas seasons. So to, then, are we baptized
followers of Christ called to do the same. As the Introduction to
the Lectionary for Mass notes, Baptism and Confirmation "have made
all Christ's faithful into messengers of God's word," so we "must
therefore be bearers of the same word in the Church and the world,
at least by the witness of [our] lives" (#7).
It's Anniversary / Birthday Time Celebrating our parish feast
day and patron, St. Lucy, is always a challenge for us. St. Lucy's
feast, December 13, is
Ordinary Time (Continued from page 4) just twelve days before
Christmas, so doing some extra special things in the midst of
holiday preparations is almost impossible, in 2020, even more so.
The anniversary of our founding as a parish is a little easier to
celebrate -- January 26. Although the church recalls Saints Timothy
and Titus on that day, it truly is a solemnity for us. As we
anticipate celebrating 65 years of ministerial service here along
the Nautical Mile, plans for an elaborate celebration won't occur.
We're hoping everyone will be able to join in two of the all-parish
activities that will launch us into 2021, and encourage our growth
in Christ as true missionary disciples. Read on.
Scripture Challenge Archbishop Vigneron in Unleash the Gospel
calls us to grow in our listening and understanding of the
Scriptures so that immersing ourselves in the Word we may deepen
our initial encounter and grow in our relationship with Christ. The
Archdiocese and several major catechetical publishers are providing
numerous resources to encourage and offer assistance to increase
our reading of scripture this year. Like runners training for a
marathon, the Archdiocese has suggested six possible challenges,
hoping to organize participants of each one into small groups, or
guilds. They were noted in last week's LucyLight, and full
descriptions can be found on this website:
unleashthegospel.org/scripture. In addition, Fr. Mike Schmitz from
Ascension Press began offering a daily podcast, reading a portion
of scripture each day. The entire Bible will be read by the end of
the year. A reading plan and further information can be found at
ascensionpress.com. I signed up for the full marathon, reading the
whole bible in a year (it's been a while). Unfortunately, like most
marathon runners, I started out with great intentions, and yet I'm
already a couple of days behind. I'm using Fr. Mike Schmitz as a
coach, sort of, and joined the diocesan small group. As we rally as
a parish, and begin to share life with others in our family, the
foundation of scripture for us all is a most important bond. Look
for additional information coming from the Archdiocese about small
groups, and bible studies, and from Karen Schroder and me about
adult and family opportunities to break open scripture through out
the year. The weekend of January 23-24 has been designated as the
Sunday of the Word of God by Pope Francis. He notes that "a day
devoted to the Bible should not simply be seen as a yearly event
but rather a year-long event, for we urgently need to grow in our
knowledge and love of the Scriptures and of the Risen Lord, who
continues to speak his word and break bread in the community of
believers (Asperuit Iliis, #8). Let us know which scripture
challenge you'll be part of. Like exercise, having a buddy is
helpful to ensure success. We'll be happy to help get you
connected, simply give us a call.

Let’s wake up each morning ready to hear God’s whispers

whispers into our hearts, where they can become a catalyst for
grace in this world.

Our Sunday Scriptures
Liturgically, the Christmas season ends today with the Feast of
the Baptism of the Lord. There are many dates people believe the
Christmas season ends based on history and popular piety.
December 26 – The secular world, from stores to radio stations,
shifts away from Christmas a day later after a month (or more) of
celebrating. Since Catholics spent that time preparing during
Advent, we are just starting to celebrate the incarnation.
January 1 – Octave of Christmas – Celebrated since the end of
4th century, the octave provides for an extended celebration and
contains several other holy days, each of which points us in its
own distinctive way to the Nativity of Our Lord. This period
contains the feasts of the Holy Family, St. Stephen (Dec. 26), St.
John the Evangelist (Dec. 27), and the Holy Innocents (Dec. 28) and
the commemorations of St. Thomas Becket (Dec. 29) and Pope St.
Sylvester (Dec. 31). It ends with the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of
God.
January 6 – Epiphany – While the dioceses of the United States
celebrate Epiphany on the Sunday between January 2 and 8, January 6
is the 12th day after Christmas, and there are rich cultural
celebrations in Spain, France, and Ireland. In the Eastern Church,
Epiphany (Greek for “manifestation”) originally celebrated the
Nativity, visit of the Magi, the Lord’s Baptism, and sometimes the
miracle at Cana — all revelations of Christ’s divinity.
February 2 – Feast of the Presentation of the Lord in the Temple
-- In the prior liturgical calendar (and still celebrated in the
Extraordinary Form), Epiphany was a liturgical season from January
6 through February 2 that prolonged the various spiritual Christmas
themes. The feast commemorates the third and final infancy epiphany
since Jesus’ birth: (1) to the shepherds, (2) to the three Gentile
kings, and (3) to the elderly, righteous Israelites Simeon and
Anna. We also hear the Presentation readings on the 5th and 6th
days of the Octave of Christmas. Sources: “When is Christmas Over?”
(Willis), https://aleteia.org/2014/

https://aleteia.org/2019/01/08/the-forgotten-season-of-epiphany/
The verses from Isaiah culminate the poetic proclamation of the
prophet who preached about 550 years before the birth of Christ, in
the dark days after Jerusalem's destruction and the exile to
Babylon. The prophet announces that these events were not the end;
they were an astonishing new beginning in the story of salvation.
"I am doing something new!" declares the Lord (43:19). This prophet
revels in the riches of a new version of the Davidic covenant. As
David's royal line was lost during the exile, the prophet announced
that the spectacular "sure love for David" was now the property of
the entire people of God. He imitated the vendors' cries in the
marketplace of Babylon as they sold necessities like water and
bread and luxuries like wine and milk. But this vendor was offering
-- for free-- the blessings of the God of Israel! Five hundred
years later, a man like the ancient prophets came proclaiming God's
impending judgment. John preached that his baptism would prepare
people for God's rending of the heavens to mete out justice. But
his word was fulfilled in a way he did not expect. The one mightier
than John did indeed appear when he "was baptized in the Jordan by
John." The heavens were indeed "torn apart": Mark's use of the
Greek word schizo, "splitting, carried a threatening, apocalyptic
image of judgment (Mark 1:10). But what emerged from the opening in
the heavens was a dove, the Spirit of God in the form of the
ancient symbol of God's peace following divine judgment (Genesis
8:8 -12). The Gospel changed the template of salvation: Now
salvation is offered before rather than after judgment. This
remarkable change marks the "beginning of the good news of Jesus
Christ, the Son of God" (1:1).

During the days approaching our anniversary, we'll be doing our
best to renew acquaintances, build new friendships, and check the
vitals of who we are as a community of faith. Be sure to bring your
cell phones with you to church that weekend (January 23-24), yes
you read that correctly. We hope to celebrate our birthday, by
updating who is part of our St. Lucy family as quickly and easily
as possible. No cell phone? We'll be able to help you update your
information and connect with the parish family that weekend as
well. It's our parish birthday and it's an opportunity to check all
our vitals (that's our family and friends) and look at what will
keep us healthy and growing for the year ahead.
Porch Packages
One of the bigger challenges we're facing as the pandemic
lingers and the dispensation from Mass continues, and our ability
to gather in sizeable groups is still curtailed, is that we're not
seeing or hearing from many of our parish family. It seems odd that
staying at home and staying safe, also seems to mean staying away
from the telephone as well. To help "check our vitals" and "get
hold of ourselves" as we turn 65, I've begun to organize our active
households, some 580 of them, into smaller geographic units,
extended neighborhoods really, to assist in "inviting, welcoming,
and building relationships" a key part of our mission as a parish.
The Gospel speaks of the crowds being organized in groups of fifty
or so; Jesus had 12 disciples and Luke notes that a further 72 were
appointed, so the plan is 12 geographic areas of about 50 - 72
households. This gives us a new look for St. Lucy as we move into
the future as part of an even larger family of faith. As part of
our hallmark hospitality and welcoming folks, we're putting
together small gifts -- "porch packages" -- that will be delivered
personally by me (with a little help from some friends whose legs
are younger than mine) to each home within the groupings. A huge
task, but one I believe is needed particularly at this time. Watch
for the "package" on your porch over the next several weeks. I
can't tell yet which day I'll be traveling and where I’ll be
delivering -- there are other obligations that are part of each
day, and I'm not really trying to compete with Amazon or Fed-Ex. My
hope initially was to get the "packages" (gift bags) delivered by
our anniversary date, but realistically, I'm hoping to have the
task completed before Lent begins. The whole process will probably
be more like "ring and run" since there really won't be time to
visit at each house individually, and COVID-19 protocols with
masking, etc. make that even more challenging. Hopefully we might
be able to do something in person later this year, or by Zoom.
Scripture Challenge (Continued from page 5) As I mentioned,
staying indoors doesn't restrict the use of the phone. Call us
(586-771-8300) or email the Parish Office ([email protected])
and let us know how you're doing. The gift bag "package" will have
a candle, some holy water to bless your home as a "domestic
church", a note from me, a book for your spiritual reading during
2021 (we all seem to have time on our hands) and a few other items.
Of key importance is the "tag" from this year's Christmas tree in
the Gathering Space. It contains the name of another Parish Family
that I'm asking you to hold in prayer throughout the coming year --
your "Prayer Partner" for 2021. Once we can assemble appropriately
in a larger grouping, we'll try and organize some events for each
of the 12 areas, and some kind of "reveal" to connect with your
"Prayer Partner" in person. It's been said those in their 60's are
now the new 40's, if they remain healthy and active. That's my plan
for all of us in 2021 -- to keep us all healthy (protocols and
all), active, and connected as a parish family even as our St. Lucy
family prepares to grow into a larger Family of Parishes in the
year to come. Have a good week. Pick up your Bible and begin
reading. Which challenge and small group will you join? See you in
church as you're comfortable and able.
"By water and blood " (I John 5:6) links Jesus' baptism with his
death. Jesus himself likened his death to a baptism (Mark
10:38-39). How is death like a baptism?
