January 24, 2021        Our Lady of Good Counsel Parish , Methuen ~ Lawrence            Third Sunday In Ordinary Time

Dear Parishioners,
Last week we heard in our readings about the call to discipleship and considered how God calls each of us into a life of
holiness not as its own end, but for a purpose, to make holy the world around us. Holiness does not mean perfection, it
means purpose. This week we consider what that purpose requires, which is where we find our motivation to evangelize,
or share the good news about Jesus and His salvation. Each reading contributes something to help us in our reflection on
Jesus as the Way. From the Book of the Prophet Jonah we hear ‘turn away from your evil ways’; in Psalm 25 we pray
for God to teach us His ways; in 1 Corinthians we are reminded that the way of the world is passing away and we hear
something of the need for urgency in our response; and finally in the Gospel of Mark we are reminded that the first step
in following Jesus on the way is personal repentance, and that faith in Jesus is what enables our urgent response to His
call. Perhaps we could sum it all up with “Hurry along the way of your salvation!”
I love the stories of the Bible, and the story of Jonah has always been a favorite. In a book many of us probably had as
children, The Little Golden Book of Bible Stories for Children, the focus of the story was the fascinating image of Jonah
being swallowed by a whale and spit out on the beach where God wanted him to be. The adult version of that story adds
several different layers of complexity to the story. Jonah did not want to go to the City of Nineveh at all. Nineveh was
the archenemy of Israel at the time. Nineveh was in Ancient Iraq, right across the Tigris River from the modern-day city
of Mosul. Nineveh was a huge city, and was the Capital of Assyria, and in addition to being bitter enemies they did not
know or follow God. It was known in its day to be a brutal city and was a symbol for wickedness in the ancient
world. But God sends Jonah there with a mission to pronounce God’s judgment and punishment on the people. In what
must have been only a lackluster effort on his part, Jonah, finally if only grudgingly obedient to God, Jonah does what
God requires. He wanders through a part of the city proclaiming the message he was given “Forty days more and Nine-
veh shall be destroyed”. Much to Jonah’s chagrin the people hear his message and respond immediately. They declare
a 40-day fast and everyone from the King on down to the cattle puts on sackcloth and ashes as a sign of their repentance
for their evil deeds, and the City of Nineveh is saved.
In the First Book of Samuel, Chapter 2, verses 27-36 an anonymous prophet visits the High Priest Eli and shares with
him the devastating news that God is going to take away the priesthood from Eli and his family. His sons were abusing
their authority, blaspheming God, and Eli was not taking any action to intervene. The prophet announces that Eli’s sons
will die on the same day, and nobody in Eli’s family would ever grow old. It is one of the harshest prophecies in the bi-
ble and hangs over priests as a sharp reminder that God has little patience for bad, lazy, or unholy priests. Many are trou-
bled by the prophet’s words and find the image of God portrayed as harsh and merciless. But I think a more accurate
way to understand the prophecy and what happens to Eli’s family is to recognize that God allows the full weight of the
decision to choose sin over grace to fall on those who do not follow him. We see this so often when people get into grave
trouble, and their secret sins are found out and are broadcast on the news and in the papers. The shame people feel at
those moments is real, and the feeling that they are being punished must be intense. But it is never God’s will. God
makes clear what God’s will is… to love God above all else, and to love our neighbor as our self. All sin is basically a
rejection of that will. God allows it because God allows us our free will. But the consequences of our choices are ours,
and sometimes they are harsh. They are never harsher than when we choose sin over grace. God appeals to us repeatedly
to choose the life of grace, and to be conduits of that grace to others. There is urgency in that call today just as there was
in Jonah’s day, in Jesus’ day, and in Paul’s day. Our job is to hear that call, to repent, and to believe in the Gospel.

God Bless, Fr. Chris

      Introduction to the Liturgy of the Day
On the Sea of Galilee, Simon and Andrew were fishing for
fish when Jesus walked past, saying, “Come after me, and I
will make you fishers of men.” changing their lives forever.
   We hear stories of calls in the readings today: calls to
   follow, calls of conversion, calls to repentance, calls to
                         discipleship.
   Let us take this opportunity today to listen closely and
       discern whether we can hear Jesus calling us to
                       something more.

                                                                4

A Letter From Fr. Chris . . .

Dear Parishioners,

As we continue to live with this pandemic and all of its restrictions on our lives, we consider
how they will impact our observance of the Season of Lent and other feast days that are ap-
proaching. We continue to limit our public worship to Sundays only, including the Vigil Mass
on Saturday. We will continue to ask you to sign up for Masses and will take names and tem-
peratures for as long as we are required being in a “red zone”. We will continue to offer the
Daily Mass via live streaming only. Some parishioners have expressed their frustration with
these limitations, but the numbers of those infected continue to grow and to be a source of
grave concern, so I think it is best to stay the course and minimize the number of activities
that bring us together in larger groups.

Our religious education program is small. We have begun having the children meet in the
hall, socially distanced and wearing masks, for shorter and fewer sessions. We have also of-
fered assistance to parents who wish to home school during the pandemic.

The Blessing of Throats is a popular devotion done the day after the Feast of
the Presentation of the Lord, or Candlemas, on the Feast Day of St. Blaise Feb-
ruary 3rd, or the weekend close to the Feast Day. This year we will offer only
the General Form of the blessing, as opposed to the individual blessing using
the traditional crossed candles.

                         During the pandemic we are reminded that we should not be touching
                         our own faces, much less the faces of others. This obviously will im-
                         pact the distribution of ashes on Ash Wednesday. One recommendation
                         from the Vatican is to distribute ashes by saying the words “Repent and
                         believe in the Gospel” once and then sprinkling the ashes on the top of
                         the head. Many of us have seen on television that this is the norm at
                         the Vatican. Another suggestion is to not distribute ashes but rather
                         emphasize the meaning of them. The ashes are but an outward sign of
                         what we hope is an interior disposition, a commitment to accept the re-
                         sponsibility and express my sorrow for my sins;

to turn away from them and to turn towards the Lord. On Ash Wednesday we will not distrib-
ute ashes but will encourage at our live streamed Mass and through the bulletin a day of pray-
er and penance, and a sincere effort to make this year’s Lent a work of the heart and an oppor-
tunity for spiritual growth.

We are not permitted to have events with food so the “soup” part of our traditional Soup and
Stations on Fridays in Lent cannot happen. In line with our efforts at minimizing group
gatherings will not have the Stations either.

                   With his Apostolic Letter “Patris corde” (“With a Father’s Heart”), Pope
                   Francis recalls the 150th anniversary of the declaration of Saint Joseph as
                   Patron of the Universal Church. To mark the occasion, the Holy Father has
                   proclaimed a “Year of Saint Joseph” from December 8, 2020, to December
                   8, 2021. To mark this Year of St. Joseph we will offer a virtual Holy Hour,
                   live streamed only, on the Solemnity of St. Joseph, Friday, March 19, 2021
                   at 7:00 PM. The Holy Hour will include adoration, songs, prayers, and a
                   brief homily.
                   The same restrictions on distribution of palms as well as
                   materials remain in place this year. You may recall they
impacted Palm Sunday last year too. Although we had purchased the palms,
we were not allowed to bless them and distribute them. The same is true
still, so we will not be distributing palms, our usual “Lenten Giveaway’, or
the “Little Books”. There are daily prayer resources available online, at De-
Colores Christian Bookstore in Salem, NH, The Magnificat and similar pub-
lications, and on apps for a smart phone.
I hate all these restrictions as I am sure many of you do as well. We have
had to sacrifice much because of this pandemic, and I pray for the day when all of this will
be behind us. I will be announcing our Holy Week plans as Easter approaches. Perhaps we
can all pray and sacrifice during Lent for an end to this virus once and for all, a safe return to
life as we know it and love it, and for a safe and effective vaccine for all people.
You are in my daily prayers! Fr. Chris

               Cori 2020-2021
        Dear OLGC Staff and Volunteers,

    It’s that time of year again! Cori forms are
   available in the Parish Office for completion.
    Everyone ages 18 and over who serve in the
    Parish are required to complete these forms
 annually. If you have served in the past but have
    temporarily stopped due to COVID-19 it is
  recommended that you still complete this form.

Forms can be completed at home, however, proper
 verification (photo ID) must be done in person.

 This year there also has been a change to the form
 allowing for a notary signature instead of coming
   to the Parish Office for verification. Please be
  advised that the notary signature is optional and
     not a requirement (this may include a fee).

 Feel free to contact the Parish Office if you have
          any questions at 978-686-3984
 The office is open Monday to Thursday from 8am
   to 3pm and on Fridays from 8am to 12 noon

                    Thank you!

   On Monday we will celebrate the feast of the
  conversion of Saint Paul, whom we hear from
  today. “I tell you,” he warns, “time is running
   out” (1 Corinthians 7:29). He pleads with his
    audience to immediately do the opposite of
           whatever they are doing now.

                                                                     LECTOR WORKBOOKS
    Hearing the gospel should turn their lives
   around 180 degrees, for “this is the time of                      Workbook for Lectors and
     fulfillment. The kingdom of God is at                   Proclaimers of the Word 2021 are available
               hand” (Mark 1:15).                                       in the parish office.

                                                           Workbooks will be located in the copy machine
