Healing Masses
Tuesday, January 16, 6:30pm
and Friday, January 19, 12pm
The Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick will be available during
this Mass for every baptized Catholic over the age of reason. Prayer
teams will also be available immediately after Mass to pray with
people for healing and other needs.
Anointing of the sick primarily is for spiritual healing. Physical healing might occur, but
it is not the main purpose of the sacrament. Certainly the sacrament should not be ex-
pected to automatically cure the sick person. Such an expectation tends toward supersti-
tion (cf. CC2111). Baptized children below the age of reason cannot commit personal sin
and so do not need anointing of the sick if they are in danger of death. Rather, when in
danger of death, such children can be given confirmation, for spiritual strengthening and
more fully to initiate them into the Christian religion.

Thank you again for all you do!
Since childhood the Feast of the Epiphany of the Lord has been one
of my favorite celebrations of the Christmas Season. The idea of
the wise men following a star to unknown places captured my im-
agination then. And it still does. The story of the Magi presents
Jesus as the Messiah of the Gentiles (us) and to all the people of the
world. When I was a child, it was an adventure story. There were
good guys, the Magi, on an amazing quest, following a star to the
far reaches of the earth. There was a really bad guy, Herod who
wanted to kill the baby Jesus. And in the end, the good guys won.
They found the baby Jesus, gave him wonderful presents, tricked
Herod and then they returned home safely. This is a good story!
Looking at this story with adult eyes still excites my imagination.
The idea of following a star across the world is a very romantic
notion. Almost everyone has a star they want to follow. For some
people that star might be the allure of wealth or power. For other
people the star might be fame or the thrill of adventure. Still others
seek love and will travel to the ends of the earth to find it. But this
story isn’t about seeking love or self-fulfillment or achieving our
dreams. The story of the Magi is about a journey of faith. These
pagan astrologers represent all the people in the entire world includ-
ing us. And so, this story is about us finding spiritual meaning in
our lives. It is about our search for Jesus.
Like the Magi, we have to put aside our preoccupations and fixa-
tions. We have to drop everything to follow the new star, the Light
of Christ. There is adventure in seeking and then following Jesus.
We don’t know where He will lead us in our journey of faith. For
me following the star, the Light of Christ, lead me to Peachtree
City, Georgia. The journey here was not easy but I know that this
is where God wants me right now. I don’t know where the Light of
Christ will lead you. My prayer is that each one of you will seek
the only star worth following and let it guide your journey to the
Lord.
Father, we your people rise up in splendor,
for your light has come;
your glory now shines upon us.
We are grateful for this light,
who is Jesus Christ, your Son.
Make our lives radiant
with that same brightness
and help us walk as one in your light.
Open our eyes that we may recognize you
in all the signs you send us.
All glory be to you, FATHER,
through your SON Jesus Christ,
who draws all people to himself
that together with the SPIRIT
we might give you praise,
forever and ever.
AMEN

Del Ministerio Respeto a la Vida: “Un embarazo inesperado puede ser una época difícil y
aterradora, y es importante que tu amiga sepa que piensas
en ella y la apoyas… Tu apoyo puede ser el único que
reciba. Aunque no nos demos cuenta, las cosas más pe-
queñas pueden cambiar la vida de alguien”.
Algunos consejos para ayudarla o apoyarla: - Sé sincera: Vivir un embarazo inesperado no es fácil, y no es para que
te preocupes si no encuentras las palabras más acertadas. Solo sé
sincera. Hazle saber que puede contar contigo, y pregúntale cómo se
encuentra y cómo puedes ayudarla. Pero sé sincera. Hazle saber que
estás con ella y pregúntale cómo se siente y cómo puedes apoyarla.
Es una buena manera de abrir las puertas a la comunicación, y puede
sentirse agradecida por la oportunidad de hablar libremente con
alguien. La emoción puede vencerla en algunos momentos, pero ten
paciencia, no nos olvidemos de las hormonas; la lucha es real.
- Ofrece ayuda específica: No tengas miedo de preguntarle si necesita
cualquier tipo de ayuda o de ofrecer ayuda específica. Por ejemplo, tal
vez puedes ofrecerte para ayudarle con la limpieza, encontrar a un
buen médico, o correr a la tienda para buscar comida que no le
provoca nauseas. Pero no te olvides de percibir las señales que te está
enviando y de asegurarte de que no te estás excediendo.

Retrouvaille is a Three-Phase Program
Phase 1: The Retrouvaille Weekend Experience
Retrouvaille begins with a weekend experience in which couples
are helped to reestablish communication and to gain new insights
into themselves as individuals and as a couple. Weekends are typi-
cally held at eithr a local hotel or a retreat facility. This part of the
program is presented by three couples and a priest. The presenting
team has experienced disillusionment, pain, and conflict in their
own lives and offer hope as they share their personal struggles of
reconciliation and healing.
Couples will find courage and strength in the realization that they
are not alone in their struggle. They will not be asked to share their
problems with anyone else. However, they will be encouraged to
put the past behind them and to look beyond the hurt and pain, in
order to rediscover each other in a new and positive way. The
Retrouvaille Weekend provides tools to help them with communi-
cation, forgiveness, and trust. It teaches a dialogue process of
meaningful communication on a feeling level.
Phase 2: The Post Weekend Sessions
A series of follow-up presentations is
the next important phase of the
Retrouvaille healing process. The hurt
and pain of a struggling marriage can-
not be healed in a single weekend ex-
perience, though it is a positive start.
The Post sessions include a series of 2-
hour talks by additional couples that expand on the Weekend con-
cepts. Each Retrouvaille community establishes the Post schedule,
over either a 6- or 12-week period. Most couples, without a doubt,
find this to be one of the most productive components of the pro-
gram and where the most growth in the marriage occurs.
Phase 3: Monthly Support (CORE)
The final phase is a monthly small-group support meeting called
CORE (Continuing Our Retrouvaille Experience). It allows for a
casual and supportive interaction with other couples who have
attended the Retrouvaille program. This monthly meeting contin-
ues to reinforce the communication tools learned on the weekend
and it is a positive and welcoming space that allows couples to
form strong and lasting bonds as they continue to heal their mar-
riages.

Annual Women’s Retreat:
Sitting With God: Touching the Real Divine
January 19 – 21, 2018
Women understand the importance of touching, seeing, hearing and
tasting in order to make things real. God knows our yearnings to
experience him physically. How do we do that with God? The an-
swer lies in the metaphors for the Divine. These metaphors contin-
ue to remind us of God’s presence, protection and grace. Through
Scripture, storytelling, reflection, discussion and group experience
come to embrace our Lord more fully.
Presenters: Janet Jansen is the mother of four grown children and
three grandchildren and lives with her husband in Wisconsin. She
has been a life-long educator: twenty-two years in elementary
schools and as principal for fourteen years in Catholic schools in
Texas, Maryland and Alabama. Jan Gile is a member of the Mis-
sionary Cenacle Apostolate and is currently a DRE in Annunciation
Parish in Decatur, AL. She completed the Lay Ministry Program in
the Diocese of Birmingham and received her MTS degree from

Today we celebrate the Epiphany.
This Feast commemorates the
manifestation of Christ to the
gentiles, that Jesus came not only as
the Messiah to the Jewish people but
as the Savior of the whole world.
Our RCIA classes in the New Year will center on the Seven Sacraments of the Catholic Church
“The seven sacraments touch all the stages and all the important moments of Christian life: they give birth and
increase, healing and mission to the Christian’s life of faith. There is thus a certain resemblance between the stages of
natural life and the stages of the spiritual life.“
Jan 10 Baptism & Confirmation Jan 17 The Eucharist
Jan 20 Reconciliation/Anointing of Sick Jan 27 Matrimony & Holy Orders

Welcome to True Reformers: Saints of the Catholic Reformation, a study crafted to teach about those who led the Church’s rebirth from the ashes of confusion caused by the Protestant Reformation. In these six sessions, participants will learn about the true benefactors of the human race: the saints. The saints of the Catholic Reformation show us just how powerful—and beautiful—is the human heart’s free response to God’s generous grace.
