Collaborative Mass Schedule Dear Parishioners,

More than ten years ago, I travelled with a group of parishioners from a former parish that I served in to a small community in the countryside of the Dominican Republic. We brought with us a doctor, a nurse, and as much medicines, toothbrushes, and other supplies as we could fit into our luggage. Over the course of a week, we ran several “clinics” and enabled hundreds of desperately poor people to receive basic medical care to which they would otherwise have had no access. It was a very moving, and some ways, deeply disturbing week. I had never seen poverty on that level before. Although there are many resorts and modern cities along the coast of this tropical island paradise, inland the people lack electricity, sanitation, adequate shelter, and proper nutrition. Many live in crumbling cinderblock homes and leaky straw shacks with tin roofs. Because of an always-contentious political environment, public service projects like hospitals and clinics are often started by one political party while they are in office, and later discontinued and abandoned when the other party takes their place. It is a crippling dysfunction that leaves many vulnerable citizens without anyplace to turn.

I guess in some ways, we went down to this third world country to help “the poor.” We brought our expertise, our supplies, our treasure, and our great big beating hearts to help those in need. And so, I think, on one level, we did a lot of good. But returning from my first encounter with all of this, I couldn’t help but be struck by how unexpectedly happy the people of this little community were. Compared to everything we enjoy and take for granted here in the United States, they were desperately poor. But they were happy! And in a moment of bitter honesty, I had to admit,

Winter Weather Mass Cancellations

Due to the hazards of travel and the safety of priests and parishioners alike, this winter, daily Mass within the Collaborative will be cancelled if either Pentucket Regional or Newburyport Public schools are cancelled because of inclement weather. Any Religious Education classes will also be cancelled on such days. WBZ Chanel 4 will have the updated school cancellation information. It is also available on their website at boston.cbslocal.com.

In severe situations, it may also be necessary for safety reasons to cancel weekend Masses. Please watch WBZ or consult their website for cancellation information.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. In all things, God gave us the gifts of wisdom, reason, and prudence. Let’s use them wisely this winter and exercise sound judgment when considering going out in severe weather.

Questions of the Week Adult : Which one of the Beatitudes was most meaningful for you when you heard it today? Why? Child : Which of the Beatitudes is your favorite? Why?

Preparing for Mass Visit http://liturgy.slu.edu to read this weekend’s Scripture, historical and theological commentaries, and prayerful reflections. It is a great way to get ready to hear and respond to God’s Word.

Bulletin Information Please supply bulletin information by Monday noon to the collaborative bulletin email: [email protected].

they were happier than we were. We went down there to help “the poor,” but maybe we were the ones steeped in a different kind of poverty—a lack of joy, a deficit of trust in God, a failure to properly see our place in God’s world. I don’t know…it was a feeling of personal, spiritual poverty that still haunts me. We were the rich, wealthy, powerful “Americanos,” but compared to them, were we really “the poor?” Did they know of a different kind of wealth that makes our standards fade and pale in comparison? Maybe….

This weekend’s Gospel raises up many in our world who are found in situations that have brought them to low, thankless places. The crushed in spirit, those in mourning, the meek of the land, those pining for righteousness when none is to be found, those who opt for mercy when the crowd roars for revenge, the ones who miraculously are free from guile, the precious few peacemakers of our time, those who stand up for what they believe is right and those crazy, wonderful lunatics who dare to profess their faith in Christ…these are blessed by God! Not because of what they do not have, but because of what they have not given up: their enduring hope in their relationship with God, that God is the One who will preserve their honor, their dreams, their dignity, and their very lives! They are blessed because they have not surrendered the three things that St. Paul tells us we can take with us into eternal life: Faith, Hope, and Love. They are blessed because God will not abandon them, even if countless others have. And in the end, it is all about what God will do, not about what we human beings have accomplished.

I still think about the people of the little town of Cevicos and wonder if all of our efforts to help them were not somehow used by God’s purposes to speak to us, to call us to conversion of heart, to bless us as we were trying to bring blessings to others. I invite you to ponder this familiar Gospel with me, and be unafraid to let the Lord bless us in this present moment in our own moments of lowliness and need. It might surprise us to experience God’s tender mercy in our vulnerability.

Wishing you and your families many blessings in the days ahead,

Fr. Tim Harrison, Pastor

Fr. Broderick’s Scripture Study Scripture Study will meet on February 5, 2017

Father Broderick’s Scripture Study will meet on Sunday, February 5 at 2:00pm in the IC Parish Center. This would be an ideal time for interested members of the Collaborative to join the study group. We will be reading and discussing the

beginning of the Acts of the Apostles.

Our beloved teacher, Father Broderick, not only explains the meaning of the Scripture passages, but also presents rich description of the period and places cited, as well as the culture and practices of the people involved. He connects the events in the New Testament to Old Testament prophecies and events, as well as to our own time. This is a worthwhile way to spend an hour and fifteen minutes on a Sunday afternoon. All are invited to attend these sessions and grow in knowledge and faith.

Immaculate Conception School Greetings Friends,

It is my fervent hope that you will join us after the 11:30 Liturgy this Sunday, as we open Catholic Schools Week at Immaculate Conception School! Refreshments will be served and you will have an opportunity to visit the classrooms. As you walk through the door, the first thing I hope you will sense is a culture of welcome and warmth. You will be greeted by happy faces and students eager to tell you about their experience at IC.

Beginning with this letter, I would like to highlight some of the amazing learning going on in our classrooms and throughout the school.

This Week’s Visit to Immaculate Conception School:

Ms. Erica Rivera, our third grade teacher, shares with us that her class is eagerly learning their multiplication facts! During math lessons, her students represented multiplication as repeated addition using arrays of equal rows and columns. Then, they searched for arrays around them, both at school and at home. Many third graders noticed how windows are often arranged in arrays.

This week, each member of the class was assigned a multiplication sentence to incorporate into a skyscraper of their own design! Skyscrapers were named

after the students themselves using their knowledge of alliteration. The buildings were then arranged into the third grade’s very own “Array City” that displayed their new math skills and third grade’s artistic talents.

During our regular Morning Meeting on January 18, the Cross Country Team Captains, Carlos Jones and Christopher Thoreson, unveiled a new banner in the gymnasium. This banner represents IC as the 2016–2017 season champions of the North Shore Catholic School Boys Cross Country League. The banner was uncovered against a backdrop of cheers from the whole student body. Speeches by the Captains, Coaches, Dale Eckert, Ted Jones, and Athletic Director Mike Doyle highlighted the event. We are proud of this team’s sportsmanship and hard work!

Sincerely, Mary Reardon, Principal

IC Religious Education Amoris Laetita ...Pope Francis

Pope Francis released the Exhortation on the Family. In the weeks to come, you will be introduced to various statements from the Holy Father. The Sacrament of Matrimony—In #75—In the Church’s Latin tradition, the ministers of the sacrament of marriage are the man and the woman who marry; by manifesting their consent and expressing it physically, they receive a great gift. Their consent and their bodily union are the divinely appointed means whereby they become ‘one flesh.’ By their baptismal consecration, they were enabled to join in marriage as the Lord’s ministers and thus to respond to God’s call. Hence, when two non-Christian spouses receive baptism, they need not renew their marriage vows; they need simply not reject them, since by the reception of baptism their union automatically becomes sacramental. Canon Law also recognizes the validity of certain unions celebrated with the presence of an ordained minister. The natural order has been so imbued with the redemptive grace of Jesus that “a valid matrimonial contract cannot exist between the baptized without it being by that fact a sacrament.” The Church can require that the wedding be celebrated publicly, with the presence of witnesses and other conditions that have varied over the course of time, but this does not detract from the fact that the couple who marry are the ministers of the sacrament. Nor does it affect the centrality of the consent given by the man and the woman, which of itself establishes the sacramental bond. This having been said, there is a need for further reflection on God’s action in the marriage rite; this is clearly manifested in the Oriental Churches through the importance of the blessing that the couple receive as a sign of the gift of the Spirit.
