Third Sunday in Ordinary Time St. Andrew’s Parish Bulletin January 21, 2018
, 2011
invited them to walk His way, to follow as it were in His
footsteps. "Prompted by the Holy Spirit, the Church must
walk the same road which Christ walked, and the Church
means all of us, joined together like a body receiving its life-
giving influence from the Lord Jesus". The way of Jesus is
always the path of mission; and He is now inviting His
followers to proclaim the Gospel so that culture and Gospel
proclamation will meet in a mutually enriching way and the
Good News will be heard, believed and lived more deeply. This
mission is rooted in the mystery of communion.
The communio of the Church is a gift of the Blessed Trinity,
whose deep inner life is most marvellously shared with
humanity. Communio is the fruit of God's loving initiative,
fulfilled in the Paschal Mystery of Christ by which the Church
shares in the divine communio of love between the Father and
the Son in the Holy Spirit. "God's love has been poured into
our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to
us" (Rom 5:5). On the day of Pentecost, Christ's Passover was
brought to completion by the outpouring of the Spirit, which
gave us the first fruits of our inheritance, a share in the life of
the Triune God, which enables us to love "as God loved us".
The Church received the Gospel from previous generations of
Christians and from missionaries coming from overseas. There
are many missionaries - clergy, women and men religious as
well as lay people - who have spent themselves in carrying the
Gospel; their sacrifices have, by God's grace, borne much fruit.
The present generation of Christians is called and sent now
to accomplish a new evangelization. This call to mission
poses great challenges, but it also opens new horizons, full of
hope and even a sense of adventure.
The call to mission is addressed to every member of the
Church. "The whole Church is missionary, for her missionary
activity...is an essential part of her vocation". Some members of
the Church are sent to people who have not heard of Jesus
Christ, and their mission remains as vital as ever. But many
more are sent to the world closer to home, and the Synod
Fathers were keen to stress the mission of the lay members of
the Church. In the family, in the workplace, in the schools, in
community activities, all Christians can help to bring the
Good News to the world in which they live.

STEWARDSHIP REFLECTION
The calling of the first disciples in today’s
Gospel is remarkable. The disciples left what
they were doing, their businesses – their very
livelihood ‘immediately’ to follow Jesus.
They demonstrated a remarkable level of
detachment to the things of this world in
response to Christ's call to “follow me”.
Stewardship likewise embraces the freedom
and joy that comes with detachment. The
freedom comes in not being owned by our
possessions. In addition, by not clinging too
tightly to our time, abilities, and possessions
we are able to share them with others.
Stewardship is joyful because it is living
Christ-centred and not self-centred.
