OUR FASCINATING FAITH
Resolve to Spread God’s Mercy and Peace
Imagine: two New Year’s celebrations in little over a month! In late No-
vember, Advent began the new liturgical year, and today the secular
New Year 2023 begins. In today’s Gospel, everyone who heard it was
amazed by the story the shepherds told of the angels’ message regard-
ing the child. Mary herself continued to reflect on all these things in
her heart. With religious persecutions raging, international and domes-
tic conflicts seething, our family and friends suffering various difficul-
ties, and COVID not yet entirely in the rear-view mirror, not to mention
our own personal problems, how much our world needs Jesus as an-
other New Year veiled in mystery begins! As we pray for God’s mercy to
enfold our world and embrace each of us in 2023, let our New Year’s
resolution be to live for others, as Mary did, a channel of God’s mercy
and an instrument of Christ’s peace.

SAFEGUARD THE CHILDREN
What to do when a child discloses abuse
When a child discloses abuse, the first thing to remember is to stay
calm. Coming forward takes incredible courage and trust; it is usually
very hard for children to open up. If a child discloses abuse to you, it is
important to listen fully to what he or she is saying. Limit your ques-
tions to short, simple queries: What happened? Who did this? Where?
When? Let the child know you want to help and coming forward is the
right thing to do. As soon as possible, make a report with a child pro-
tection agency in your state. For more information, read the VIR-
TUS® article, “When a Child Discloses” on lacatholics.org/did-you-
know/.

PARISH REGISTRATION
To promote a spirit of belonging, we encourage all who
worship here to become registered parishioners. Having
registered makes the process much easier when it is
time for infant baptism, school or religious education
enrollment, weddings, when asked to be a baptismal or
confirmation sponsor, and funerals. Simply attending
Mass here does not make you a registered parishioner.
Please call or visit the Parish Center to request a regis-
tration form or complete the form online at the parish
website: www.sjwchurch.com. Also, please contact the
Parish Center if you have a new address or phone num-
ber. The staff is able to serve you better if the parish
