MARTIN LUTHER KING HOLIDAY: This weekend we
and our country commemorate the birth of Martin Luther
King, a wonderful example of peaceful protest and a hero to
so many, especially those who are victims of racial prejudice. We are reminded of our obligation to work and speak
against such discrimination due to race, color, language, sexual orientation, religious preference or whatever separates
people here in our own community and beyond, and to uphold and respect the dignity and worth of every human being. Check the local paper and news for events, both religious and civil which commemorate his birth. Also, the office will be closed on this day in observance of the holiday!
THAT GOD LOVES AND CARES FOR HIS OWN.
STEWARDSHIP: In today’s first reading, we hear Samuel
responding eagerly; “Here I am,” each time the Lord calls
him. May we, too, be listening for the call of God in our
lives and be ready to say like the Psalmist: “Here am I, Lord;
I come to do you will.”
