SUNDAY THOUGHT Matthew 2:1-12
On the Feast of the Epiphany, we celebrate our belief
that through Jesus, the Son of God, we come to know
God and His immense love for each of us. It is so easy
in the course of our busy lives to lose touch with the
awareness that God is with us and loves us. In the
hectic pace of modern day living, God often gets
pushed aside, or sometimes even forgotten about for the
moment. Then one day something happens. It doesn’t
seem to matter whether the event is either happy or sad;
we are reminded that we need Him and we begin to
look for Him again. Often it is at times like these that
God seems so far away and so difficult to find.
Epiphany is one of the days in the Church’s liturgical
year that reminds us that if we are searching for God,
don’t look far away. He is very near. Look within and
you will find Him waiting for you where he has been all
the time … in the quiet of your heart.

THE EPIPHANY OF THE LORD JANUARY 7, 2018
CELEBRATING THE SAINTS Saint Salomone (Solomon) Leclercq, Martyr (1745-1792)
Saint Solomon Leclercq was born Guillamune-Noclas-
Louis Leclercq in Boulogne-sur-Mer, France on
November 15, 1745. His father, a wealthy merchant,
wanted Guillaume to follow him in the merchant trade,
but Guillaume wanted to be like the Christian Brothers
of St. John Baptist de La Salle who taught him at
school. At twenty-one, he entered the novitiate, taking
the name Salomone (Solomon). After his profession,
he taught mathematics for several years at the
scholasticate at Melun.
In 1792 Salomone was serving as the secretary
to the Superior general in Paris when the revolutionary
government began cracking down on priests and
religious who refused to take an oath to uphold the
French Constitution, thereby rejecting the authority of
the pope. After their schools were closed, the Christian
Brothers left the city. Salomone alone remained to
watch over the Paris house. On August 15,
revolutionaries broke into the house and arrested him.
He was imprisoned with other religious at the nearby
Hotel des Carmes, a Carmelite monastery. On
September 2, the prisoners were given the chance to
declare their adherence to the constitution. They
unanimously refused, and were brutally hacked to
death in the monastery garden.
One hundred eighty-eight of these “September
Martyrs” were beatified in 1926 by Pope Pius XI. The
miraculous cure of a Venezuelan girl from the bite of a
venomous snake in 2009 set the stage for Salomone’s
2016 canonization by Pope Francis on 16 October
2016. Saint Salomone Leclercq’s feast day is
September 2nd.
ST. ANTHONY FOOD PANTRY As we begin a new year, we would like to thank

particularly joyful? Why was it so special to you?
HEY CATHOLIC! DID YOU KNOW…
Did you know that the traditional names of the Magi are Gaspar, Melchior, and Balthasar.
RETROUVAILLE Retrouvaille is a three-month program to help couples struggling in their marriages. It has three phases, starting with a weekend experience in which couples learn to re-establish communication and to gain new insights into themselves as individuals and as a couple. Post sessions are held over a period of 12 weeks to further develop and enhance the techniques learned on the weekend. A support group is available offering interaction with other couples who are striving to improve their relationship. The 2018 weekends scheduled are: January 19-21, April 13-15 and September 21-23. For more information go to their website www.helpourmarriage.com, for registration or email Marce & Liz Gliha at 3031@retrouvaille.org.

THE EPIPHANY OF THE LORD JANUARY 7, 2018
PARISH CALENDARS A heartfelt thank you goes to Mr. John Riczo from the Riczo Funeral Home and also a St. Anthony parishioner for once again providing our parish with calendars for 2018. His continued generosity to the parish is deeply appreciated. As we begin a New Year, it’s a good time to say thank you to all our kind and loyal bulletin sponsors. Our patronage is one good way to show our appreciation.
CATHOLIC GLOSSARY Incense: Incense is an aromatic substance used in the liturgical prayer of the Church. When burned, the incense produces rising smoke and gives off a perfumed aroma. It signifies the zeal with which the faithful should be consumed, the good odor of Christian virtue, and the ascent of prayer to God. Incense was one of the three gifts given to Christ Child by the Magi.
CHRISTIAN SPIRITUALITY CORNER “For by gold the power of a king is signified, by frankincense the honor of God, by myrrh the burial of the body; and accordingly they offer Him gold as King, frankincense as God, myrrh as Man.” — St. John Chrysostom.
SO MANY PEOPLE TO THANK!
The people of St. Anthony have once again shown themselves most kind. We at the rectory have been blessed with cards, gifts and goodies. We have attempted to thank you individually, but if you have been missed, please accept our most sincere thank you! We make a promise of prayers in return.
Fr. Dale, Fr. Peter and the entire Staff
