Congratulation to the Newly Baptized! April 2021
We send our love and prayers to Elena Virginia Long Caraballo, Finnbar Connell Dunkley, Bridget Izabelle Bullock, and Anna Marie Barry and their families on having received the great gift of Baptism at St Malachi Church. May these babies and their families be blessed for years to come!
Welcome in Baptism!
We welcome our youngest new member, Bridget Izabele Bullock, daughter of Molly and Tom Bullock, who was baptized at St Malachi on March 21, 2021 in the presence of her joy-filled family. May the Jacob-Bullock Family be abundantly blessed!
Celebrating the Rite of Welcome and Rite of Acceptance, 12/2019
At the beginning of the Church year, we celebrate the Rite of Acceptance into the Catechumenate with Marissa Pence, who looks forward to Baptism, Confirmation and Eucharist at Easter. We also celebrate the Rite of Welcome into preparation for full communion with the Church, through Confirmation and Eucharist, with our baptized candidates, Amy Friedel, Carli Leone and Reed Remington. These Rites will be celebrated at St Malachi on Dec. 8th and at St Patrick on Dec. 14th. May our prayers and love support each of these candidates on their journey into the Mystery of Christ and His Catholic Church!
Stewardship Moments: The Baptism of the Lord
In today’s reading from the Gospel of Luke we hear the proclamation of the baptism of Jesus with “all the people.” Indeed, “heaven was opened,” and the Father announced his special favor. Whenever we partake of the body and blood of Christ, heed his call in our daily lives, share his Good News, become instruments of his transforming justice and peace, heaven is opened to us, and through the Holy Spirit, the Lord announces his special favor on us as well. A good stewardship reflection this week might be this: How, or in what ways, have we personally experienced God’s special favor in our lives?
