Today we celebrate the feast of the Epiphany, where the Magi find the newbornking and offer him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

In his homily on the feast of the Epiphany several years ago, Pope Francis reflected onthe Magi who, he said, “personify all those who believe, those who long for God, whoyearn for their home, their heavenly homeland.” They present, he continued, “theimage of all those who in their lives have not let their hearts become anesthetized.

”In the face of a constant barrage of “bad” news in our mass media, it is not surprisingthat we all find ourselves at risk of becoming anesthetized as the Holy Father warned.To avoid such a condition, we must look beyond ourselves and remember that the“bad” news all too often involves good people and many times those in need whohave the least hope of living a happy life. When refugees journey from far away inhopes of bettering their lives, let us pray that our country will not turn its back onthem and, instead, offer them the gift of friendship due to each child of God.Gathered for the Second Vatican Council almost 60 years ago, the world’s CatholicBishops offered this thought in Gaudium et Spes: “The future of humanity lies in thehands of those who are strong enough to provide coming generations with reasonsfor living and hope.

”Thanks to all our parishioners who participated in this year’s St.Joseph Giving Tree and our SVdeP second collection last weekend. Please consider joining our work as many of our oldermembers are losing the energy needed to help those we serve.
