Stewardship Scripture Reflection
|
|
The Baptism of the Lord
And a voice came from the heavens, saying, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.” (Matthew 3:17)
Two thoughts come to mind when reading this. First, God, Our Father, is so generous, that he gave his only son, whom he really loves, to us so that we can have eternal life with him in heaven. God, Our Creator, really loves us, too! Second, Jesus was obedient to his Father’s will, even to the point of death. This is a reminder that our own lives are pure gifts from God and meant to serve God and others.

Monday Evening Bible Study
Monday Evening Bible Study will begin its Lenten study of the
“Seven Last Words of Christ”
on
February 3rd
with a Potluck Supper in the Social Hall at 6:30pm.
The study will meet from 6:30pm – 8pm in the Church for the next seven weeks. You are invited to study the seven short sentences uttered by Jesus as he endured his crucifixion and be drawn closer to Jesus’ Passion so that the real meaning of Easter comes alive.
We need your prayerful decision by Jan. 27, so books can be ordered.

Are you curious when you hear Father Michael mention the Christian author Scott Hahn in his homilies, or do you want to know more about Bishop Robert Barron and his DVDs and books?
Cokas has a library!
The Father Philip Ryan Parish Library on the second floor of the Parish Life Center is well stocked with books and DVDs…and you can access the collection and explore what we have online. Simply go to the COKAS web site and under the “Questions” dropdown menu, go to “Online Library,” and then click on the URL.
The Ryan Parish Library is open on Sundays during PSR, but is always available for individual use by getting a key from the parish secretary during business hours (9:00-2:00.) Self check-out is available, and books can be returned to the box outside the Parish Office.
So feed your soul and satisfy your curiosity - visit the Ryan Library.
