We are already nearing the end of the month of January. In a couple of weeks, we will commemorate Ash Wednesday and the start of the holy season of Lent. In these weeks in between the end of the Christmas season and the beginning of Lent, we commemorate Ordinary Time. According to the US Conference of Catholic Bishops, Ordinary Time draws us to the life of Christ in a time of conversion, growth, and maturation. Ordinary Time calls the faithful into the mystery of Christ, to penetrate ever more deeply into history until the time when Christ will come again. Blessings to all of you as we journey together through these days of Ordinary Time. Father Lincoln.
This is a blog of homilies, reflections, and photos from a Roman Catholic priest serving in the Diocese of Jackson in the state of Mississippi. Currently, I am the pastor of Holy Savior in Clinton and Immaculate Conception in Raymond. I have served as Vicar General of the Diocese since July 2019. I also serve as Catholic chaplain in the federal prison in Yazoo City and the state prison in Pearl.
