Baptism is the primary means to receive God's Spirit. In Baptism, we enter the water. In doing so, we take part in Christ's death and our death to the self (Original Sin). When we rise from the water, we partake in Christ's Resurrection and His new life (the Spirit). Sharing in His Spirit enables us to live out God's will. Because we take part in Christ's death and Resurrection in Baptism, this sacrament not only takes away our individual transgressions, but also "washes away" the effects of the world's selfishness, Original Sin. In Baptism, we become one with the "Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world." ... See MoreSee Less

The month of January is traditionally dedicated to the Holy Name of Jesus. After the Blessed Virgin Mary conceived by the Holy Spirit, the angel Gabriel appeared to St. Joseph and told him that the Child’s name should be called Jesus, meaning “God Saves.” According to Jewish law, on the 8th day after his birth a male child was to be circumcised, receive his name, and become a full member of God’s covenant people. According to the old Roman liturgical calendar, the Feast of the Circumcision of Jesus was celebrated on January 1, eight days after Christmas, the same day that He was given His sacred name. Currently we celebrate the Solemnity of the Mother of God on January 1 and honor the Holy Name of Jesus on January 3. For Catholics, Jesus’ sacred name is the object of a special devotion symbolized by the monogram “IHS,” (sometimes called a Christogram), which is the first three letters of the Greek spelling of His name. ...

Baptism calls us and empowers us to empty ourselves. Like Christ, our humility can openly declare our trust in God the Father.
To truly be God's instruments, we must be willing to empty ourselves. "Me, first" must become "we, together." "Right now" must become "your will be done." "I want" must become "what is best for all." Emptying ourselves does not mean losing our identity, our purpose, or our passion. It means seeing the bigger picture and putting others' needs on par with our own. When we act as if "we love others as ourselves," we open ourselves to God, align ourselves with His will, and become His instruments. ... See MoreSee Less
