FROM OUR PASTOR
Dear People of God,
Sincerely I thank all those who helped to remove
Crib decorations in all our three Churches. I could
see your love, enthusiasm, dedication and
commitment towards the running of our three
parishes. It is really a great of moment of life in
USA and appreciate you all.
In this second Sunday of ordinary time, we hear the
voice of God louder as always, inviting us to be his
disciples. Today, the liturgy of Word of God
reminds us that God’s call is real and that, God
knows and calls us personally by our names. Thus,
it encourages us to respond effectively to this call
with our body, soul and spirit.
Our first reading taken from the book of Samuel
recounts the dramatic call of Samuel. Life is full of
God’ voice. As a father, he speaks to, and calls us
to his service every day. Like Samuel, we must
always be ready to say: “Speak Lord, for your
servant is listening.” However, the only problem is
that most times, we are too busy or always in a
hurry, that we hardly have time to listen to Him.
So, we need to be disposed at all times to listen to
God. Because our life on earth a vocation given by
our loving God.
The second reading of this Sunday is part of
“Paul’s moral theology.” Paul reminds us: “Your
bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in
you since you received him from God.” This sin
slows down one’s spiritual and moral growth.
Consequently, it slows down the ability to respond
effectively to God’s call. Through this, Paul draws
our attention to the relationship between morality
and spirituality. The spiritual is affected by the
physical. Also, Paul reminds us that we completely
belong to God. Preserving ourselves for God, is a
very important way of responding to his call. It a
way of offering ourselves totally to God as, “a
living and pure sacrifice” (Rom 12: 1).
The Gospel of today presents us with the early
ministry of Jesus. Testimonies about him continues
especially from John the Baptist. He directs all true
disciples to Christ: “Behold the Lamb of
God!” Today’s gospel challenges us to reflect on
our response to God’s call. As he said to his first
disciples, so he says to us: “come and
see!” Andrew invited his brother Peter with the
same words: “come and see the messiah.” Also,
after encountering Christ, the Samaritan woman
invited her people with the same word: “come and
see the Lord” (Jn 4, 29).
These are invitations to follow Christ. Responding
to this invitation is a daily affair that requires the
whole of our being. God calls us by our names
every day: “come follow me; come and
see.” Therefore, like the psalmist our response
should be always: “Here I am Lord, I have come to
do your will.”
Have a Happy and Blessed Sunday!!
Yours in Christ Jesus
Fr. Doss

“WALKING WITH MOM’S IN NEED”
Some people accuse pro-lifers of caring only about the child in the womb and not women in need.

You will also hear about the fourteen Pregnancy Care Centers in the Diocese of La Crosse and what you can do to help one near you. This afternoon of reflection will have broad appeal for families, adults and teens. More details coming soon.

THE LIGHTER SIDE Coming or Going? On the way home from the Ash Wednesday service, a young boy asked his mother, “Is it true that we are made of dust?”
“Yes, darling.”
“And do we go back to dust again when we die?”
“Yes, dear.”
“Wow!” said the boy. “When I said my pray-ers last night and looked under the bed, I found someone who is either coming or going!”
Just a Second Adam: What is a million years like to you?
God: Like one second.
Adam: What is a million dollars like to you?
God: Like one penny.
