    Our Christmas season concludes with the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord. Jesus was not baptized because he needed to repent — rather, He was revealing who He is and what He came to do. It is from His mission that we can receive the sacrament of baptism — when we become adopted sons and daughters of God. From that moment, we belong to Christ — we become His

    stewards. Our lives should be a reflection of this relationship. The way we live should reveal Whose we are. In our First Reading, the prophet Isaiah shares a message of hope, “Why spend your money for what is not bread, your wages for what fails to satisfy?” We should ask ourselves, "Who is the king of our hearts?" As Christian stewards, it should be God. We often fill our lives with things that satisfy us only for a moment. If we truly do belong to Christ, then we will make Him our top priority. What we fill our lives with should reveal that He is King. In our Gospel, Mark reveals the intimate relationship between God the Father, God the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit descended upon Jesus and God the Father proclaimed, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.” We, too, have access to an intimate relationship with God. But like all good relationships, it flourishes with effort. How we spend our time and share our gifts says a great deal about Whose we are. © Catholic Stewardship Consultants, 2020. Pastoral Pondering — Covid Vaccines — I have continued to receive questions about the morality of receiving the COVID vaccine due to its connection with human fetal cells obtained following abortion. Both the USCCB and the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith have issued guidance in this regard. Both indicate that while no one is obliged to receive the vaccine (or coerced to do so), due to severity of the pandemic and the remoteness of the moral cooperation, it is morally licit to receive the COVID vaccine. Each individual must still evaluate his or her own personal objections and concerns and decide what to do accordingly. Adoration — I have said before that I believe our parish commitment to perpetual Eucharistic Adoration has been the fundamental “power” that allows us to accomplish all that we have been able to in recent years, but certainly, during a very difficult 2020. Father Richard Heilman, the author of the Grace Force Podcast and other efforts says

    the following: “I am convinced that a movement of restoring Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament is the spiritual therapeutic for cleansing our country of demonic influence and opening the floodgates of grace that will heal our land… bringing our country back to the spiritual health of being One Nation Under God once again.” No reasonable person of faith can deny that over the past several years, we have seen an increase of activity that can only be described as evil and even diabolical. It especially manifested itself during 2020 in a negation of the importance of the spiritual and eternal for a focus on the physical and temporal. This of course is completely contrary to Christian faith and history. As followers of Jesus Christ, we have an obligation to have as our first and most important reason for living in the vale of tears to love and serve the Lord here so that we can be with Him forever in heaven. With this in mind, I want to encourage you all to make Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament an intentional decision for all of our families. While we have a core of very dedicated adorers who cover the hours of Adoration during the week, far too many are left with only a single adorer signed up and committed. We are to be the leaven in society, and we cannot fulfill this mission if we do not first recommit ourselves to fitting worship and prayer of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. This certainly takes place when we assist at Holy Mass, but Adoration is the sacramental that leads us to ponder what we are offered at the Holy Sacrifice. I hear countless people lament and complain about the state of the world. Yet, rather than first having recourse to the source of True Power, we often turn to worldly solutions such as political or judicial structures and institutions in hopes that they can solve our problems. This is simply fanciful thinking. Because of our fallen human nature, the merely human and temporal will never cure what ails our nation and our world. Our first recourse must be to the Almighty. I encourage and even beseech you then to be intentional Adorers of the Most Blessed Sacrament. Commit yourself and your families to set times of adoration so that the outflowing of grace that comes from this pious and devout practice might pour forth not only here in the parish but far beyond. In Luke 6:38, the Lord says the following: “Give, and it shall be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over shall be poured into your lap.” God wants to pour out His graces upon us if we will just cooperate with Him and accept all that He desires for us. Please sign up for Adoration. www.stmarknc.org/adoration.

    Reporting sexual abuse or misconduct If you have information about possible sexual abuse or misconduct by any clergy, employee or volunteer of the Diocese of Charlotte, report concerns safely, securely and anonymously 24/7 over the phone using the Diocese’s new hotline (1-888-630-5929) or online (RedFlagReporting.com/RCDOC).

    If you suspect a child is in danger, please call 911 or your local law enforcement agency. Safe Environment training Did you know that every Church volunteer must go through abuse prevention and education training? Yes, all volunteers are required to have a background check on file before they can participate in any ministry. Any position that interacts with children, the elderly or any vulnerable adults in any manner is required to complete a Protecting God’s Children (PGC) workshop and continue training before they can start volunteering. However, we encourage ALL volunteers to complete this certification. PGC helps us learn to recognize the warning signs of abuse and the many ways that sexual abuse harms victims, families, parishes and communities. It teaches us appropriate ways to respond to suspicious behaviors and how to prevent abuse. It’s a program established to help us protect ourselves as volunteers.

    Find more information about the Diocese of Charlotte’s Safe Environment program, sign up for Protecting God’s Children training and more, visit: charlottediocese.org/human-resources/safe-environment

    Del Párroco – El Bautismo del Señor

    Nuestro tiempo de navidad concluye con la fiesta del Bautismo del Señor. Jesús no fue bautizado porque necesitara arrepentirse – por el contrario, él estaba revelando quien es y lo que vino hacer. Es de su misión que recibimos el sacramento del bautismo – cuando nos

    hacemos hijos adoptivos de Dios. Desde ese momento, pertenecemos a Cristo- nos volvemos sus administradores. Nuestra vida debería ser un reflejo de esta relación. La manera como vivimos debería revelar a quien pertenecemos. En nuestra primera lectura, el profeta Isaías comparte un mensaje de esperanza: “por qué gastar su dinero en lo que no es pan, el salario en lo que no satisface?” Deberíamos de preguntarnos, ¿“Quien es el rey de nuestro corazón”? Como administradores cristianos, debería ser Dios. Con frecuencia llenamos nuestra vida con cosas que nos satisfacen solo por un momento. Si de verdad pertenecemos a Cristo, entonces haremos que él sea lo más importante. Con lo que llenamos nuestra vida, debería mostrar que él es el Rey. En el evangelio, Marcos revela la relación íntima entre Dios Padre, Dios Hijo y el Espíritu Santo. El Espíritu Santo descendió sobre Jesús y Dios Padre proclamó: “Tu eres mi hijo amado; en ti me complazco”. Nosotros también tenemos acceso a una relación íntima con Dios. Pero como en todas las buenas relaciones, florece con el esfuerzo. La manera como pasamos el tiempo y usamos nuestros dones dice mucho sobre quienes somos. © Catholic Stewardship Consultants, 2020. Reflexión Pastoral — Vacunas contra el COVID — Sigo recibiendo preguntas sobre la moral de recibir la vacuna contra el COVID debido a su conexión con células de feto obtenidas después de un aborto. Tanto la USCCB como la Congregación para la Doctrina de la Fe han creado una guía sobre esto. Ambos indican que, aunque nadie está obligado a recibir la vacuna (o ser forzado a recibirla), debido a la severidad de la pandemia y la lejanía de la implicación moral, es moralmente licito recibir la vacuna para el COVID. Cada individuo debe aún evaluar sus propias objeciones personales y sus preocupaciones y decidir qué hacer de acuerdo a esto. Adoración – He comentado anteriormente que el compromiso de nuestra parroquia a la Adoración Eucarística perpetua ha sido la “energía” fundamental que nos permite llevar a cabo lo que hemos logrado en los últimos anos, pero más ciertamente durante el muy difícil 2020. El padre Richard Helman, el autor del Podcast Fuerza de Gracia y otros, dice lo siguiente: “Estoy convencido que el movimiento para restaurar la Adoración al Santísimo Sacramento es la terapia espiritual para limpiar nuestro país de la influencia demoniaca y abrir las compuertas de la gracia que sanara nuestra tierra…llevando a nuestro país de regreso a la salud espiritual siendo nuevamente “Una Nación Bajo Dios”. Ninguna persona razonable de fe puede negar que, durante los últimos años, hemos visto un aumento en la actividad que solo puede ser descrita como maligna e incluso diabólica. Esta se manifestó especialmente durante el 2020 en la negación de la importancia de lo espiritual y eterno por un enfoque en lo físico y lo temporal. Esto claro está, es completamente contrario

    a la fe cristiana y a la historia. Como seguidores de Cristo Jesús, tenemos la obligación de tener como primera y más importante razón para vivir en este valle de lágrimas, el amar y servir al Señor aquí, para que podamos estar con él por siempre en el cielo. Con esto en mente, quiero animarlos a todos a hacer la Adoración al Santísimo Sacramento una decisión intencional para todas nuestras familias. Aunque tenemos un grupo de dedicados adoradores que cubren las horas de adoración durante la semana, muchas horas están con solo un adorador que se ha inscrito y comprometido. Debemos ser la levadura en la sociedad, y no podemos llevar a cabo esa misión sino nos comprometemos primero con la adoración y oración a nuestro Señor y Salvador Jesucristo. Ciertamente esto tiene lugar cuando asistimos a la Santa Misa, pero la adoración es el sacramental que nos lleva a profundizar lo que se nos ofrece en el santo sacrificio. Escucho a muchos lamentarse y quejarse del estado del mundo. Sin embargo, en lugar de recurrir a la fuente del verdadero poder, recurrimos a soluciones del mundo como las estructuras políticas o judiciales y otras instituciones con la esperanza de que puedan resolver nuestros problemas. Estos son simples pensamientos imaginarios. Por nuestra naturaleza humana caída, la simple voluntad humana y temporal nunca podrán curar lo que aflige a nuestra nación y el mundo. Nuestro primer recurso debe ser el Todopoderoso. Los animo e incluso imploro a ser adoradores intencionales del Santísimo Sacramento. Comprométase usted y su familia a tener horas de adoración para que la gracia que fluye de esta práctica piadosa y devota pueda brotar no solo aquí en la parroquia sino mucho más lejos. En Lucas 6:38, el Señor dice: "Dad y se os dará; una medida buena, apretada, remecida, rebosante pondrán en el halda de vuestros vestidos". Dios quiere derramar su gracia sobre nosotros si cooperamos con Él y aceptamos todo lo que Él quiere de nosotros. Por favor inscríbase para la adoración en este enlace: stmarknc.org/adoration.
