From Fr. Joseph:

Dear brothers & sisters in Christ,

After the Advent and Christmas seasons, we are back to the

“Ordinary time” this Monday. At this time, I want to thank

each and every member of our parish for your participation,

help, and the contributions to our church. I believe, with all

your hard work and dedication, we had a very Blessed and

Joyful Christmas!

I specially thank all those who were in charge of our various

ministries—like Christmas dinner, music, meals for the shut-

ins, Christmas Float and Parade, children’s liturgy, etc. for

their service and the leadership. Your faith and your service,

definitely help others to grow in their faith too!

I would also like to say a word of thanks to all those who

have sent me Christmas Cards, prayers and wishes and gifts!

Thank you so much for your love, support and help in many

ways. I want to express my deep appreciation and thanks for

your love and support! And now, it is time for me to visit my

family back home; I will be leaving on Monday, Jan 12th

and, I plan to be back on Feb. 6th. In my absence Fr. John

Panamthottam will be in charge. Please welcome Fr. John

and make him feel at home!

Fr. John was my Provincial (superior) for the last six years-

until April 2014. It was Fr. John who made possible for me to

stay here and serve you all as the pastor at Sacred Heart. I

am very thankful to him for his understanding and support.

At present, Fr. John is teaching in the school (11th & 12th

Grades of the Indian school system). He has been here with

us a couple times before and here really enjoyed visiting us!

All the Mass schedule and all the scheduled events will go

without any changes.

Please pray for my family and my safe return. You all are in

my thoughts and prayers!

Sincerely in Christ,

Fr. Joseph Mundakal CMI

The Four Theophanies

The Baptism of the Lord was originally cele-brated on the same day as Epiphany, as was the Na-tivity. Over time, the church separated the three cel-ebrations which became the Nativity (revelation of Christ to Israel); the Epiphany (revelation of Christ to the Gentiles); the Baptism of the Lord (revelation of the Trinity). There is one additional theophany-the Wedding at Cana (revelation of Christ’s transfor-mation of the World).

Although Jesus had no sin and needed no baptism, by humbly submitting to baptism by John, he sets the example for us!
