The Baptism of the Lord
A Stewardship Reflection on This Sunday’s Readings
Today — the Baptism of the Lord—is also the First Sunday in Ordinary
Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament
Time. Jesus’ Baptism Feast is placed here by the Church because it is
Mon-Thu: 9AM- 8:30PM, Fri: 9AM-5PM an important part of what has been revealed and taught to us during
Christmas.
Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament
Last week we spoke of the meaning of Epiphany — a “manifestation”
First Friday of Month: 9 AM - 5:30 PM
or “revealing.” Christ’s Baptism, as described in the Gospel of Luke in today’s readings,
Followed by Benediction at 5:30 PM
represents one of the Theophanies. An Epiphany is a manifestation, but a Theophany is
the manifestation of God Himself. During this Christmas season and the week after it,
Rev. David DeJulio, Pastor
we celebrate four theophanies: 1. The birth of Christ on December 25, which revealed

Christ to Israel; 2. The visit of the Magi on Epiphany, which revealed Christ to the GenFr. Ed Lamp
tiles; 3. The Baptism of the Lord, which revealed the Trinity; and 4. The miracle at the
[email protected]
wedding of Cana, which revealed Christ’s transformation to the world. (Next week’s
Fr. Carl Last
Gospel is the miracle at Cana.)

Jesus’ Baptism is even more than a revelation to us. If He, Who had no need of this puDeacon Jose Moronta
rifying act, humbly subjected Himself to it, then we, most in need of redemption, can

recognize both the importance of this sacrament, as well as recognizing how we are
freed from darkness. Jesus was not Baptized because He needed it, but because we

Bulletin Submissions
“The pastoral care of vocations needs to involve the entire Christian community in every area of its life. Obviously, this pastoral work on all levels also includes exploring the
matter with families, which are often indifferent or even opposed to the idea of a
priestly vocation. Families should generously embrace the gift of life and bring up their
children to be open to doing God’s will. In a word, they must have the courage to set
before young people the radical decision to follow Christ, showing them how deeply
rewarding it is.” - Pope Benedict XVI

Fr. David’s Travels
St. Mark’s Shovel Update
Greetings to all of you!
Well, I hope by now all of you have
survived the Christmas and New Year’s
celebrations. Now we can all can settle
down for at least for awhile until
Valentines Day and then the great season
of Lent. I did get the chance to play some
golf with my nephew Frankie, who called me one Friday afternoon and
asked if I wanted to play. After the ninth hole, the weather started to
look menacing so we decided to quit and get something to eat instead.
Although I didn't play too badly, I was more than happy to get some
chicken wings rather than hitting another golf ball! Anyway, it was nice
going out there and playing with my nephew who flew the ball by me by
almost 100 yards on every drive. It's nice being young!
Along the same lines, we will be having our annual Golf Tournament at
Hunters Green on February 10th and it seems once again to be even bigger and better every year. There will be all kinds of prizes, trips, and
chances for a hole-in-one super prize. You might even be rewarded for
"Beating the Priest" at the 7th hole. Just a warning though, he's not that
easy to beat since God is on his team! However, God does seem to be
napping some of the time so you might catch a break. Anyway, hope you
will be able to play and make sure you get your registration in since we've
been sold out in prior years!
On another note, a team from St. Mark will be attending a meeting of the
Diocesan Finance Council in a bid to start breaking ground earlier for our
new church. As you may know, the Diocese requires 50% of the total
project amount to be in cash before they will allow us to break ground.
Although we are not there at this point, our team will be presenting financials and statistics regarding parish growth when a new church is built,
along with potential housing starts in the area, interest rates, and construction costs. We are currently half way to our goal of $5 million so we
really need your help! If you have not made a pledge or a gift to our Capital Campaign, I strongly urge you to do so right away! The more leverage
we can bring to that meeting in February, the better our chances. Won't
you help to make St. Mark the shining star in our New Tampa community?
Goal
$10,000,000
Shovel Goal
$5,000,000
Total Amount Pledged $4,395,012
Total Cash Collected

We are all called in various ways to share
in the Church’s mission of announcing the
reign of God and transforming the World
in the light of Christ. We are called to
serve one another; all members of the
community are to be enslaved to one another. As slave-servants, we are ministering to one another, to the church, to the
gospel and to the Lord. God has given
each of us a ministry. We should minister
to one another's needs. God has given us
abilities so that we will use them to serve
others. All Christians — whether women,
men, priests, deacons or elders — are
called to be ministers.

to you upon their return.
3. Watch us live from your home . The NFCYM will be live steaming the entire convention during the four day experience!.

The Sacrament of Confirmation
CCC # 1309 Preparation for Confirmation should aim at leading the Christian toward
a more intimate union with Christ and a more lively familiarity with the Holy Spirit his actions, his gifts, and his biddings - in order to be more capable of assuming the
apostolic responsibilities of Christian life. To this end catechesis for Confirmation
should strive to awaken a sense of belonging to the Church of Jesus Christ, the universal Church as well as the parish community. The latter bears special responsibility
for the preparation of confirmands.
The first mandatory class will be held on Thursday : Jan 17 at 6:30 PM
Please plan on arriving 15 minutes early so we can start on time! The classes
will run until 9 PM.
Confirmation Rehearsal: Sunday, May 19 at 6:30 PM
Confirmation Mass: Sunday, May 26, at 5:30 PM
Power up Tuesday!
Power up nights are held from 6:30-9 PM for those Confirmed Teens and
Young Adults that are looking for that extra boost of energy that we call
faith. Join us on Tuesday, Jan 29 at 6:30 PM for our next session. Please
RSVP to MaryAnn if you would like to attend.
Young Adult Ministry
Hey Young Adults of St Mark! Do you ever wonder how many other young
adults want to get together to share in fellowship, and have real conversation
about faith ? Join us for our next Meet and Greet on Jan 14 at 7 PM and find
out! Please RSVP to MaryAnn in Youth & Young Adult Office.
Embrace the Cross
6
One of our parishioners, Bob Rayo, has created his life's work of art and reflected his love and
devotion to Our Lord Jesus Christ, by designing a huge wooden cross that will be in our new
Church. It is now in the Narthex for all to see. We are all privileged to be able to purchase a
piece of veneer, to take it home, decorate in whatever way families/individuals want, (there
are some limitations such as no crayon, felt, glitter, etc) to make a statement to our faith
community and to Christ. These will be then glued onto the cross, so that ultimately it becomes a mosaic of our parish members, our eternal gifts to our Church, for all future generations of our Church to see in awe over the next 100’s of years!

Baptism of the Lord
YEAR OF FAITH - 2012-2013
by Kevin Fritz
Faith is a gift from God that we have received from others who
have gone before us. If we accept this gift of faith in our lives we
make an act of faith - a personal decision to say Yes to God by giving ourselves completely to God and the way God calls us to live.
God invites us to faith but we have to open the door of our hearts
and allow God to enter. God invites us but never forces us to believe.
There is a painting of Jesus standing and knocking on the front
door of a house. The door cannot be opened from the outside but
only from the inside by the person who lives in the house. The same is true of our
hearts and lives. Jesus will stand and knock at the door but we have the choice to let
him enter into our lives. If we choose not to allow Jesus to come in, he will stand and
knock at the door of our heart for the rest of our lives. He will never give up on us but
wait patiently. However, Jesus will never force us to believe. We see this in the Gospels
as we read about the ministry of Jesus. He invited many people to follow him. Some
said yes but many said no. No one was forced to follow Jesus.
The church reminds us "that man's response to God by faith ought to be free, and that
therefore nobody is to be forced to embrace the faith against his will." (Dignitatis Humanae, #10)
Therefore, neither the Church nor any individual member of the Church can force anyone to believe out of coercion. Like Jesus, the Church invites all people to believe, to
make a personal act of faith. In fact if we forced our beliefs on others the response
would be to believe out of fear and not out of faith. This is why "(t)he act of faith is of
its very nature a free act." (Dignitatis Humanae, #10) In this way faith respects freedom
and the dignity of each human being.
While we must never force the faith on anyone else, we must share the faith with others
and invite them to discover what we have discovered. We invite others to open the
door of their heart to encounter Jesus Christ and allow their lives to be transformed by
his presence.

Religious freedom means that no one is forced to accept the faith but it also means that
we who believe are free to live those beliefs and to stand up for those beliefs. It means
the freedom to invite others to discover the great gift of faith and to open their hearts in
a personal act of faith. In this spirit of freedom the Church seeks "to infuse the Christian spirit into the mentality and mores, laws and structures of the communities in
which they live." (CCC, #2105) Living the faith we profess means allowing Christ to work
through us to transform the communities in which we live and work.

Children’s Faith Formation Corner: Why is the Priest Wearing Green Vestments?
On Sundays, as you look around the church at Mass for the next few weeks, you will notice that the priest’s vestments are green as
well as the cloths on the altar. That is because we are now in that period of time between Advent and Lent, which is called Ordinary Time. During this period of Ordinary Time of the Church Calendar, we reflect on the childhood and adult life of Jesus. While
green is the appropriate color for Ordinary Time, other appropriate colors are worn on particular feast days. During Advent we use
the Advent wreath or calendar to help keep track of the days during that season. There are things you can do during this Ordinary
Time to make it a special time for you.
1. Do something special for the nine days before your birthday or the birthday of someone you love. A novena is nine days of
prayer. You can create your own novena by saying prayers like the Hail Mary or Our Father for nine days for a special favor, grace,
or blessing. You get to choose when you start and finish!
2. Keep a “Thank You” journal. Each day list 5 things you are thankful for. On Sundays read aloud
your list, saying, “God, I thank you for…” It will be a nice record of blessings everyday on your life!
3. Read some stories about the lives of saints. The Feast days of St. Anthony, St. Agnes, St. Francis
de Sales, St. Thomas Aquinas, and St. John Bosco are just a few of the ones observed in January.
3. Act out! This means that you will make an effort to do something good, instead of just thinking
about it. Clean your room, play with a little brother or sister, give your Mom, Dad, and grandparents some of your time by helping them with chores. You could write these in your journal too!
4. Talk to your parents about how your family can make Sundays special days together.
Ordinary time won’t be ordinary if we use this time make good changes in our lives. And before
you know it, this ordinary time will be over; and Lent will be here. Then you will be seeing purple!
You can use the color chart on the right to help you identify the seasons of the Church year.

El Bautismo del Señor
Se oyó una voz del cielo que decía: Tú eres mi Hijo
amado, a quien he elegido. (Lucas 3,22)
¡Qué acontecimiento más trascendente y
extraordinario! ¡Ver los cielos abiertos, el Espíritu
Santo descendiendo sobre Jesús y escuchar la voz
de Dios anunciando que estaba complacido con su
Hijo! Ante semejante demostración pública del
poder y la majestad de Dios, ¿quién podía presenciar semejante escena y no sentirse
transformado?
Este era un testimonio celestial de que Jesús era el Hijo de Dios, enviado por el Padre y
ungido por el Espíritu Santo, de manera que poseía todo lo necesario para llevar a cabo
toda su misión; ninguna palabra suya resultaría vana ni vacía, ninguna promesa quedaría
incumplida; no habría enfermedad que pudiera persistir y no habría pecado que no fuera
perdonado. Jesucristo actuaba sin duda alguna con el poder y la autoridad de Dios.
Pero el Bautismo de Jesús no estaba reservado para Él solo. Los que hemos sido
bautizados en Cristo también tenemos al Padre que se regocija en nosotros y al Espíritu
que nos llena de su fuerza, e incluso a Jesús mismo, que intercede por nuestras
necesidades. La voluntad divina es que los fieles del Señor tengamos una confianza plena
en que Él nos concederá su herencia si nos mantenemos fielmente a su servicio, para lo
cual el Espíritu Santo ha venido a nuestra vida en el Sacramento del Bautismo.
La exposición del

ORACIÓN POR LAS VOCACIONES
Jesús, nuestro Buen Pastor, bendice todas nuestras
Parroquias con numerosos sacerdotes, diáconos,
hombres y mujeres en la vida religiosa, laicos
consagrados y misioneros, de acuerdo a las necesidades
del mundo entero, el cual tu amas y deseas salvar.
Ayuda a nuestros Pastores y a todos aquellos que
viven consagrados a ti, Guía los pasos de aquellos
que han contestado generosamente a tu llamado y
quienes se preparan para recibir las
Órdenes Sagradas para profesar sus votos.
Mira con amor a los jóvenes y llámalos a seguirte.
Ayúdalos a comprender que solamente en ti Señor
es que podrán obtener la satisfacción completa.
Para finalizar, pedimos por la poderosa intercesión
de María, madre y modelo de todas las vocaciones.
Te imploramos que mantengas nuestra fé para
que el Padre nos conceda aquello que Tú
nos ordenas pedirle. Amén.
-Juan Pablo II
PILDORAS DE NUESTRA FE
POR: DIACONO JOSÉ MORONTA
Veinte Mitos, Leyendas y Tradiciones de nuestra cultura religiosa
Existe un número de historias, creencias y dichos que han sido extraídos de la Biblia, principalmente del Antiguo
Testamento.
Ni certifico ni creo en todas ellas, pero me pareció interesante compartir estas “curiosidades” con mis amables
lectores:
1. En la mezquita llamada la "Cúpula de la Roca" o "mezquita de Omar" en Jerusalén, se observa en su interior una
gran piedra en el suelo donde se asegura que Dios creó a Adán, y donde el patriarca Abraham iba a sacrificar a su
hijo Isaac.
2. Dentro del monasterio ortodoxo de Santa Catalina a los pies del monte de Moisés, se conserva el arbusto de la
famosa "Zarza Ardiente"; desde donde Yahvé le ordena al caudillo judío sacar a su pueblo de la esclavitud en Egipto.
3. En el libro de Jonás se habla de un gran pez que se tragó al profeta, pero no se especifica que fuera una ballena.
4. El mar muerto es el escenario de lo que fue la destrucción bíblica de las corrompidas ciudades de Sodoma y
Gomorra. Es el lugar más caliente de la tierra y completamente estéril; los peces que bajan del río Jordán mueren
por el alto contenido de sal en sus aguas, y tampoco vuelan las aves sobre sus cielos; las arenas de sus alrededores
se utiliza en la elaboración de cosméticos y mascarillas para la piel; además la gente que se baña en sus agua flota
y no se hunde.
5. El relato del diluvio universal era no solamente conocido por los judíos, sino también por otros pueblos antiguos
como los japoneses, egipcios, sumerios, hindúes, los indígenas del Orinoco venezolano y de Norteamérica.
6. En Caná de Galilea hay una iglesia cristiana de varias confesiones, donde se encuentra una enorme tinaja, que se
supone fue utilizada por el Mesías para realizar el milagro del agua en vino.
7. Una parte de la casa donde vivió la Sagrada Familia de Nazaret, fue traslada por los ángeles del cielo a la ciudad
de Loreto (Italia).
8. En la cueva de Macpelá, cerca de la ciudad de Hebrón (Cisjordania), se encuentra una mezquita donde está la
tumba de los patriarcas Abraham, Isaac, Jacob en compañía de sus esposas Sara, Rebeca y Lía.
9. Según el Génesis a partir de los tres hijos de Noé con sus esposas se volvió a poblar la tierra:
a. Sem: Se instaló en Asia, y dio origen a la raza amarilla.
b. Cam: Se fue a África, y dio origen a la raza negra.
c. Jafet: Se trasladó a Europa, y dio origen a la raza blanca.
10. Los nombres de los padres de la Virgen María, San Joaquín y Santa Ana; son sacados de los evangelios apócrifos.
11. Los nombres de los dos bandidos Dimas y Gestas que acompañaron a Cristo en la crucifixión, corresponden
también a la tradición y no a la Biblia.
12. El arca de Noé se encuentra sepultada bajo el hielo en lo alto del monte Ararat, en el país de Armenia.
13. En Jerusalén hay una sinagoga donde está la llamada "tumba del rey David".
14. Los años ocultos de Jesús transcurrieron normalmente en Nazaret al lado de su padres, y no con los monjes
tibetanos o en las escuelas de esoterismo y ocultismo en Egipto; como lo quieren hacer ver algunos escritores.
15. En la región de Samaria se halla dentro de una capilla de los ortodoxos griegos, el pozo de la samaritana, a la que
Jesús pidió de beber agua.
16. Tanto en Jerusalén (Israel) como en Éfeso (Turquía), hay dos iglesias que reclaman el derecho de ser la tumba de
la Virgen María, desde donde fue llevada a los cielos por los ángeles.
17. El número de la "Bestia" (666) mencionado en el libro del Apocalipsis, identifica el nombre en clave del
emperador romano Nerón César.
18. En Betania todavía se conserva el llamado "sepulcro de Lázaro", que es una gruta clavada en la roca.
19. Durante los tres primeros siglos del cristianismo el monte Calvario, fue destinado como templo de los dioses
paganos de los romanos.
20. En el Vía Crucis el encuentro del Mesías con su Madre, con la Verónica que le limpio el rostro, al igual que sus
tres caídas; corresponde a las tradiciones antiguas y no a los escritos de los evangelios.
