St. Mary’s Parish Mission Statement
We are a Catholic community of believers, rich in
tradition and growing in diversity.
We provide a barrier free environment in which
parishioners of all ages and cultures share the same
faith, theology, sacramental and liturgical celebra-
tions, instruction and other social and spiritual
events.
This enables us to connect with the world in which
we live by proclaiming the Gospel through our ac-
tions , words and prayers.

Baptism of the Lord
"After all the people had been bap-
tized and Jesus also had been baptized and
was praying, heaven was opened." What a
treat to be in that crowd! Just imagine the
experience of witnessing this manifestation
of divinity! To SEE the Holy Spirit "in bod-
ily form like a dove" and to hear the voice
that "came from heaven" announcing Jesus'
true identity. Don't we all long for this kind
of miraculous clarity? Wouldn't it do won-
ders for our faith if we had such unmistak-
able certainty about who Jesus really is?
It's easy to imagine that the first
Christians had it easier than we do. They
got to be with Jesus in person, and to wit-
ness the miracles that went along with his
years on earth. Because of this, we can
quickly forget the benefits we enjoy that
they did not. We live on the other side of
the Resurrection, for example. The first fol-
lowers of Christ believed in him BEFORE
he rose from the dead. We, on the other
hand, have the confidence of knowing that
this man literally conquered death. We also
have two millennia of Christian witness
through the saints to pull upon. The first
Christians had no idea what this new relig-
ion would produce, how many people would
embrace it, or how it would change the
world for the better. We know that Christi-
anity has been fruitful beyond measure.
Today's Gospel informs us that it
was only after they were baptized that the
people witnessed the opening of heaven.
Even Jesus himself was baptized before he
heard this earthly confirmation of his heav-
enly origin. We who have been baptized,
following the
example of
Christ, also
have "access"
to the voice of
God. In the
silence of our
hearts, and
through God's word in the Bible (another
advantage we enjoy), heaven is "opened" for
us as well.
