The Ten Commandments
443. What is the meaning of the words of our Lord, “Adore the Lord your God and worship Him alone” (Matthew 4:10)? These words mean to adore God as the Lord of everything that exists; to render to him the individual and community worship which is his due; to pray to him with sentiments of praise, of thanks, and of supplication; to offer him sacrifices, above all the spiritual sacrifice of one’s own life, united with the perfect sacrifice of Christ; and to keep the promises and vows made to him.

SEEKING THE LIGHT
In today’s readings we find ourselves being drawn more deeply into relationship with Jesus. We are getting to know more about him as we see how he struggles with the news of his cousin John’s arrest. His first response is to withdraw, to leave Nazareth and go to Capernaum. There he is perhaps both consoled and challenged by the words of Isaiah that Matthew quotes: “the people who sit in darkness have seen a great light, / on those dwelling in a land overshadowed by death / light has arisen” (Matthew 4:16). Jesus contemplates his cousin’s death, perhaps his own death, and he seeks the light. Maybe it is these words of Isaiah that move Jesus out of his withdrawal and into action. He begins to preach, teach, cure disease and illness, and proclaim the gospel of the kingdom. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

SAINT ANGELA MERICI (c. 1474-1540)
January 27
Born in Northern Italy, orphaned in childhood, Angela Merici faced a society in which education was largely the privilege of wealthy young men and based primarily in monastic schools. This reality shaped Angela’s insightful conviction that society’s disorder was caused by disorder in the home, and a lack of model Christian mothers the result of neglecting the education of young women. Transform the Christian family by placing an educated wife and mother at its heart, Angela believed, and the whole world would be renewed in Christ! So she gathered a small group of unmarried women, many of them Franciscan Tertiaries (lay affiliates) like herself, and set out to educate poor girls, free of charge, in their homes. She and her band of teachers called themselves companions, pioneering a new form of non-cloistered religious life for women, bearing witness to evangelical simplicity in the midst of the world, not as a formal “order” but as the Company (compagnia) of Saint Ursula. Known today as the Ursulines, Angela Merici’s spiritual daughters continue serving the Church and society in a rich diversity of ministries.

The Great Key to Wisdom: The Holy Trinity
Fr. Michael Gaitley, formation director of the Marian
Missionaries of Divine Mercy and ardent promoter of Marian
devotion, invites the faithful to delve into the great key to
wisdom, the Most Holy Trinity. Using his
popular book, “The One Thing Is Three”
with workbook and DVD presentations,
Fr. Gaitley shares fresh insights into the
relevance of the Trinity to our daily lives,
how the Trinity illuminates every aspect
of our faith and how knowing and loving
our Triune God allow us to live our faith
to the full.
In the words of Dr. Schott Hahn, author, speaker and Professor
of Theology and Scripture at Franciscan University of
Steubenville, “ Fr. Michael Gaitley, MIC, has a holy passion, not
only to contemplate the truth and beauty of the Trinity, but to
communicate it, which he does here with practical wisdom and
spiritual insight. Readers will gain a new understanding and
appreciation of the mysteries of faith based on what the Church
teaches about the highest and holiest mystery of all: ‘The
communion of the Holy Trinity is the source and criterion of
truth in every relationship’ (CCC, n. 2845). Both inspirational and
illuminating, I highly recommend this book.”
Orientation to sign up for the book study and view a DVD
introduction will be Saturday, February 1st from 2:00 to 3:30 pm
in the St. Isidore Faith Formation room. Cost of book is $15.
That Man Is You! Is an interactive men’s program combining the
best research from science with the teachings of the Catholic faith
and the wisdom of the Saints to develop the vision of man fully
alive. By honestly addressing the pressures and temptations that
men face in our modern culture, That Man Is You! seeks to form
men who will be capable of transforming homes and society. To
register please contact Megan at [email protected] or at
270.753.3876. Session will be held on Wednesday evenings from
6:30pm—8:00pm.
