In the three weekends of the Christmas season, we celebrate three great feast day: The Holy Family, Epiphany, and the Baptism of the Lord. These great celebrations help us gain insight to the Christmas season and the birth of our Savior. We hear the Gospel of the finding of Jesus in the Temple from Luke today. As we think about the challenges that Mary, Jesus, and Joseph faced in their daily lives, we think of all the challenges facing families in the modern world today. We are glad to have a growing, vibrant parish community where we have had a lot of baptisms recently and where we have a lot of activities for our children and youth. Blessings to all of our families as we celebrate the feast of the Holy Family today and as we continue our celebration of the Christmas season. 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.
