We ended our Christmas Season thinking about the revelation of the Son of God people realising who this Jesus of Nazareth actually was and this continues today, as we interject a passage from Saint John before we begin our weekly reading through Saint Matthew&#8217;s Gospel. New Year is about beginnings, and as we return to the beginning of Our Lord&#8217;s public ministry there is a sense of something exciting about to happen&nbsp; even though we know the story, we dive into it once more, like returning to a favourite novel or film. So it is with joy that we stand in the country of the river Jordan, and recognise Jesus of Nazareth as the Chosen One of God, who offers himself to do God&#8217;s work. .<\/p>\n<p>To view and download a copy of the Weekly Newsletter click <a href=\"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/150123-2A.pdf\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>To view and download a copy of the Prayers of the Faithful click <a href=\"https:\/\/11host.me\/stmary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/150123 2ABidding.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n<p>To make a donation click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mygivinghub.com\/detailed\/donate?charity_id=1086324&amp;type=2&amp;reference=Y18&amp;amount=\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2nd Sunday of Ordinary Time There is no break between Christmas and Ordinary Time one flows almost seamlessly into the other through the Baptism of Jesus.
