1/19/25 - Wedding in Cana - Cycle C

Dear Families,

In this Sunday’s Gospel, Jesus performs his first miracle. He turns water into wine at a wedding in Cana. Mary observed that the hosts had run out of wine and this could become an embarrassing situation. Mary told Jesus and he said that the time wasn’t ready yet, but Mary told the servers “Do whatever he tells you”. Jesus obeyed Mary and asked the servers to bring six stone jars with water and changes the water into wine. And not just ordinary wine, but the very best. This is the first sign of Jesus glory.

Mary interceded at the wedding celebration and Jesus listened to her request and obeyed. Mary intercedes for us when we ask her to pray for us. She is an example of how presenting our needs and those of others to Jesus we can be confident that he will respond to our prayers in extraordinary ways.

As a family watch video in its entirety and then ask each other this question.
When we see a need how can we try to help?

Family Prayer: Jesus, help us to be obedient, just like you were to your mother. Help us see the needs of others. Help us to do what you teach us. Amen.

From Our Director of Faith Formation:

My dear families,
I pray that you are all well. I understand that these are stressful times full of anxieties and
worries. Please remember that God is always with you, open your hearts to our Lord and
receive the message of love, hope, compassion and mercy that the Lord is offering through His
grace to those who seek Him. So, therefore:

Do not fear; I am with you;
Do not be anxious; I am your God.
I will strengthen you, I will help you,
I will uphold you with my victorious right hand.Isaiah 41:10

Please know that I miss all of you and am praying for all of you. You are the domestic Church
and what a better time to pray as a family. In your children’s bilingual book “Mi Fe Catolica”
there are prayers you can pray as a family. I encourage you to set up a prayer space in your
home where you and your family can pray an Our Father, Hail Mary and Glory Be.
Your servant in Christ,
Bertha Keenan, Director
Family Faith Formation
