A reading from the Holy Gospel of
the Lord according to Saint Luke
(Lk 12:42-48)
The Lord Jesus said: Who then is the
faithful and prudent manager whom his
master will put in charge of his slaves, to
give them their allowance of food at the
proper time? Blessed is that slave whom
his master will find at work when he
arrives. Truly I tell you, he will put that one
in charge of all his possessions. But if that
slave says to himself, My master is
delayed in coming, and if he begins to
beat the other slaves, men and women,
and to eat and drink and get drunk, the
master of that slave will come on a day
when he does not expect him and at an
hour that he does not know, and will cut
him in pieces, and put him with the
unfaithful. That slave who knew what his
master wanted, but did not prepare
himself or do what was wanted, will
receive a severe beating. But the one who
did not know and did what deserved a
beating will receive a light beating. From
everyone to whom much has been given,
much will be required; and from the one
to whom much has been entrusted, even
more will be demanded.
This is the truth. Peace be with you.
A reading from the frst letter of St Paul the Apostle to Timothy
Your Blessing Father (1 Tim 4:6-16)
If you put these instructions before the brothers and sisters, you will be a good servant
of Christ Jesus, nourished on the words of the faith and of the sound teaching that you
have followed. Have nothing to do with profane myths and old wives tales. Train
yourself in godliness, for, while physical training is of some value, godliness is valuable
in every way, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come. The saying
is sure and worthy of full acceptance. For to this end we toil and struggle, because we
have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all people, especially of those
who believe. These are the things you must insist on and teach. Let no one despise
your youth, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct, in love, in faith, in
purity. Until I arrive, give attention to the public reading of scripture, to exhorting, to
teaching. Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you through
prophecy with the laying on of hands by the council of elders. Put these things into
practice, devote yourself to them, so that all may see your progress. Pay close
attention to yourself and to your teaching; continue in these things, for in doing this
you will save both yourself and your hearers.
Praise be to God always.

Week of Prayer for CHRISTIAN UNITY
The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity will be celebrated from January 18 - 25.
This week invites all Christians to join together in prayer that all may be one
(John 17:21). The theme for this years observance is What does God require
of us taken from the prophet Micah (6:6-8).
The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity began in 1908. The week received Vatican
approval in 1916. Since 1966, the preparations are jointly planned by the
Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity and the Commission on Faith and
Order of the World Council of Churches.
The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity gives Christians an annual opportunity to
continue their quest for the unity they already share in Christ. It is also a time to
gather in praise of the Triune God and to deepen the understanding of the
ecumenical movement. By joining in this annual celebration Christians raise their
voices, hands and hearts to God seeking the fulfillment of the prayer of Jesus, the
Son of God, that they all may be one.
Join us to pray for Christian Unity on Jan 25
th
, 2013 from 8-10 pm in Our
Lady of Lebanon Church.
This prayer is organized by the "Sacred Heart Family.
