THE CELEBRATION OF

THE EPIPHANY OF THE LORD

This year, we celebrate Epiphany on its traditional day, as

January 6th happens to fall on a Sunday. Falling twelve

days after Christmas, this was regarded as enough time for

the Magi to travel to Bethlehem from foreign lands. With

their arrival, Jesus is now manifest to the outside world.

Just as the star in the East symbolized the light of Christ

shining for the whole world to see, we are called to manifest

Christ in our lives so others can realize the Good News

wherever we go.

(World Library Publications: Pastoral Patterns, 2018)

MONTHLY HEALING SERVICE

The first Healing Service of 2019 will be held on Sunday,

Year!

The City of Burlington has been allowing us to park in the Elmwood Avenue City lot when we have major events. We will be requesting that parking for all of our Christmas Masses. Please call the Parish Office if you have any questions.

TOWN MEETINGS WITH BISHOP COYNE

As part of a continuing effort to promote full transparency

about Catholic matters in the State of Vermont, Bishop

Christopher Coyne has called for Catholic town meetings

to be held around the State during the month of January.

Please read the recent Inland See from December 29th-

30th for more details about these Town Meetings. Please

feel free to attend any of the meetings, not just by location.

The locations chosen are based on ease of access, and are

not intended to be a geographic districting.

All of the Town Meetings will be held from 6-7:30PM.

Here is the schedule:

Jan 10: St. Mary’s Church, 45 Fairfield Street, St. Albans

Jan 22: Holy Family Church, 4 Prospect St. Essex Jct.

Jan 23: St. Theresa Church, 44 East Street, Orleans

Jan 28: Sacred Heart Church, 238 Main St., Bennington

Jan 29: Christ the King, 66 South Main St., Rutland

Jan 31: St. John Vianney Church, 160 Hinesburg Road

South Burlington

Please note that the January 29th meeting at Christ the

King Church in Rutland was not included in the article in

the Inland See.

The operative frame for the discussions should be Chris-

tian charity and respectful listening focused on promoting

the work of salvation in and through the Church. Please

come and let your voice be heard. God Bless you!

LITURGY OF THE WORD

Isaiah 60:1-6 The glory of the Lord shines on all people.

Psalm 72 “Lord, every nation on earth will adore you.”

Ephesians 3:2-3a,5-6 The Gentiles are coheirs of the

Promise

Matthew 2:1-12 The Magi come with gifts of gold,

frankincense, and myrrh.

THANK YOU PETER BEAUREGARD

Peter Beauregard, our Property Manager and Sexton for our

four cemeteries, has accepted a position with the Diocese of

Burlington as Facilities Manager. Peter’s last day will be

January 6, 2019.

Peter has been with us for five years, and has been an ex-

tremely valuable asset to the two churches, especially most

recently with the move from the former Cathedral and

parish offices.

In addition to managing all of the properties and cemeteries,

he has catered all of the funeral and diocesan functions held

here at St. Joseph’s in recent years.

We will continue to look forward to seeing him at Mass at

St. Joseph’s, and at the Bishop’s residence, for which he

will be responsible. Please be sure to extend your best

wishes to him and to join me in gratitude for his faithful

service to the parishioners both at Immaculate Conception

and at St. Joseph’s.
