St. Alexis is a community blessed by God with a diversity of
cultures and languages. Celebrating that richness, we reach
out to all, inviting them to gather at the table of the Lord
as One People. In openness to the Gospel, we form ourselves
as stewards of the Lord’s gifts to create a community of
faith that is unifying, supporting and nurturing.

Baptism of the Lord – 13 January 2019
Remember our own Baptism. Many of us were infants in arms at Baptism. Without actual remembering, we
may have items to help recall it – pictures, garment, candle, stories told. But we have every Easter Day with the
Renewal of Baptismal Promises to help us remember – and pledge them anew. We also have the Baptism of others
to recall the impact of those saving waters for us and for all. Just like with Jesus, the heavens open so that God is
near to us, so that God calls us “my favorite”, so that God remains pleased – in us; in me.
• Who can I invite to join us in Christic discipleship through preparation for Baptism?
• How will I renew my baptismal goodness this day?
• What baptismal gift or charism will I use for the good of another’s need?
(Think works of mercy if needing suggestions.)

We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen

The 24-Hour Knight
No man is too busy to be an active Knight of Columbus. In fact, by giving just 24 hours a year to Knights of Columbus activities, a man can make an enormous difference. With just 24 hours, a man can serve his parish, help those in need in his local community, grow in his faith and protect his family through our exclusive, top-rated insurance program.
What does the average Knight do with 24 hours?
He will spend:
• 8 HOURS with his council on charitable projects for his church or community
• 4 HOURS enjoying a Knights of Columbus family event• 4 HOURS attending council meetings to help plan future
activities• 6 HOURS (30 minutes per month) reading Columbia magazine and other K of C publications,
including kofc.org• 1 HOUR discussing his family’s insurance needs with a Knights of Columbus field agent• 1 HOUR attending Mass with his council
If that is what can be done with the hours of just one day, imagine what a Knight could do with the all the hours in a week!
That’s the time commitment of joining the Knights of Columbus, It can be so simple, and yet so rewarding, join us! Call John Alli 630-935-3581-please leave a message.
The Knights of Columbus at St. Alexis is now forming and meets on select Wednesdays. Upcoming dates: 1-23, 1-30, 2-06, 2-13, 2-27
