Weekly Bulletin

The readings for the 3rd Sunday in Ordinary Time Year B open with a powerful narrative from the book of Jonah. Jonah, initially reluctant, finally obeys God's command to go to Nineveh. His message is stark and uncompromising: the city faces destruction unless its people repent. Remarkably, from the greatest to the least, the inhabitants of Nineveh heed Jonah's warning, demonstrating a profound collective conversion. This passage challenges us to reflect on our own response to God's call for repentance. Jonah's experience also speaks to us about obedience and trust in God's plan. Often, we might feel reluctant or unqualified to undertake the tasks God sets before us. Jonah's journey reminds us that our willingness to listen and respond to God, even amidst fear and hesitation, can lead to incredible outcomes beyond our imagination.

CATHOLIC CHARITIES APPEAL SUNDAY is January 28th. Every parishioner should have received a letter from Archbishop Rodi asking for your prayerful generosity.
