FROM THE PASTOR'S DESK: FATHER PAUL CAONa onal Catholic Schools Week is an annual
celebra on of Catholic
educa on in the United States. It starts the last Sunday in January and runs all week. Schools typically observe the week with Masses, open houses and other ac vi es for students, families, parishioners and community members. Through these events, schools focus on the value Catholic educa on provides to young people and its contribu ons to our church, our communi es and our na on.
This Sunday at our 10:30 AM Mass, we kick off Catholic Schools Week. Na onal Catholic Schools Week will be observed in dioceses around the country this year from January 26—February 1. This year’s theme, “Catholic Schools: Learn. Serve. Lead. Succeed,” focuses on the important spiritual, academic and societal contribu ons provided by a
Catholic educa on fi rmly rooted in the Truth of the Gospel.
The success of our school rests primarily with the generous and hardworking individuals who diligently go about every day fulfi lling the vision of Catholic educa on. This great team of collaborators is headed by our principal, Sheila Klich.
Alongside her stands a faithful group of commi ed teachers,
teacher’s aides, support staff , room moms, members of the Parents Club, the School Board, and commi ees, volunteers, and all of the good, caring people who I have
probably neglected to men on. Our parish is indebted to them for all they do!
I also would like to thank the parents of our school children who see Catholic educa on as a value and who are fi nancially able to make the sacrifi ce to send your children to St. Celes ne school. Please bring them to church every Sunday to worship and praise our Almighty God.
Alpha Last Monday more than 30 people from our parish a ended the pilot Alpha at St. Cyprian School. What is Alpha? “Alpha is a series of sessions exploring the Chris an faith, typically run over ten weeks with a dinner, video, and small group discussion. Each talk looks at a diff erent ques on around faith and is designed to create conversa on.”
I ask you to please pray for our volunteers and guests that the Holy Spirit will be upon them and help all to become closer to Christ. We will bring the Alpha program to the whole parish in the fall. I would like to thank Kim Hagerty, our Director of Evangeliza on and all those who volunteered to make this possible. May God bless you and bless St. Mother Theodore Guerin Parish!
Fr. Paul

ON HETCH HETCHY, AND LIFETIME ENHANCEMENT
© 2020 By John B. Reynolds ([email protected])
stguerinparish.org 4
My wife and I spent a few days in the (very popular) Valley during our Yosemite trip last fall, but our trip actually began at a much less–visited area: Hetch Hetchy. Per
the park’s website, “Hidden in Yosemite Na onal Park’s peaceful northwest corner, Hetch Hetchy Valley is a treasure worth visi ng in all seasons…an
ideal place for thundering spring waterfalls and wildfl ower displays. High temperatures prevail in summer months, but that is a small price to pay for the reward of vast wilderness fi lled with stunning peaks, hidden canyons, and remote lakes.” We were there in October so we missed some of it, but we saw the rest. It was beau ful—stunning, even—and, not at all crowded.
We started/fi nished our hike at O'Shaughnessy Dam, where the 117 billion gallon reservoir it holds supplies drinking water to over two million Bay Area folks along with hydro–electric power. Those 117 billion gallons stretch out further than the eye can take in, but we saw some of the explosive power they can generate as thousands of them cascaded through underground channels toward conver ng plants downstream. Gail and I had stayed the night prior at the McCaff rey House B&B. It’s run by a local, and she told us that Hetch Hetchy was worth the trip. Her breakfast was delicious—heck, I thought her coff ee alone was worth the trip—and her Hetch Hetchy advice was spot–on.
But the highlight of the visit began before we even strapped on our hiking boots. It came as we were checking in at the entrance, because this is when I bought my Life me Senior Pass for $80. “America the Beau ful” it says on the front, with an image of a bighorn sheep and a compass. Per the small print on the back: “Life me pass for US ci zen or permanent resident, 62 years or older,” and it not only gets me into the parks for no charge, it gets my traveling companions in for free as well. And I’m taken now by what the young park ranger said as he placed the card in my hand. “Welcome to your Life me Enhancement card, because every me you use it, your life will be
enhanced.”
OK. I think a Life me Enhancement card of sorts is in play today for all three readings. Per Isaiah, “First the Lord degraded the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali; but in the end he has glorifi ed the seaward road, the land west of the Jordan, the District of the Gen les…” Here, he prophesizes Jesus. It took 700 years, but Life me Enhancement ensued for all believers from that day un l even now. Next Paul counsels the Corinthians to never lose sight of their Life me
Enhancement (“I urge you…in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ…that there be no divisions among you”). And Jesus personally hands Peter and Andrew their Life me Enhancement cards (“Come a er me, and I will make you fi shers of men”), and later James and John get—and accept—the same off er. According to the NPS website, my America the Beau ful card is my cket to 2,000+ federal recrea on
sites. Cool. But as I think about it, I guess we all have access to an Eternity Enhancement card by embracing the Christ. Oh. And don’t even worry about the $80. This one’s already paid for.
ST. ANGELA MERICI (c. 1474—1540) January 27Born in Northern Italy, orphaned in childhood, Angela Merici faced a society in which educa on was largely the privilege of wealthy young men and based primarily in monas c schools. This reality shaped Angela’s insigh ul convic on that society’s disorder was caused by disorder in the home, and a lack of model Chris an mothers the result of neglec ng the educa on of young women. Transform the Chris an family by placing an educated wife and mother at its heart, Angela believed, and the whole world would be renewed in Christ! So she gathered a small group of unmarried women, many of them Franciscan Ter aries (lay affi liates) like herself, and

set out to educate poor girls, free of charge, in their homes. She and her band of teachers called themselves companions, pioneering a new form of non–cloistered religious life for women, bearing witness to evangelical simplicity in the midst of the world, not as a formal “order” but as the Company (compagnia) of Saint Ursula. Known today as the Ursulines, Angela Merici’s spiritual daughters con nue serving the Church and society in a rich diversity of ministries.

SEEKING THE LIGHT
In today’s readings we fi nd ourselves being drawn more deeply into rela onship with Jesus. We are ge ng to know more about him as we see how he struggles with the news of his cousin John’s arrest. His fi rst response is to withdraw, to leave Nazareth and go to Capernaum. There he is perhaps both consoled and challenged by the words of Isaiah that Ma hew quotes: “the people who sit in darkness have seen a great light, on those dwelling in a land overshadowed by death light has arisen” (Ma hew 4:16). Jesus contemplates his cousin’s death, perhaps his own death, and he seeks the light. Maybe it is these words of Isaiah that move Jesus out of his withdrawal and into ac on. He begins to preach, teach, cure disease and illness, and proclaim the gospel of the kingdom. ©J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.
