The annual Polar Bear Plunge was conducted on January 1st at 12 noon at Rye Town Beach. It is a fundraiser for several local charities including ALS and Resurrection Outreach (Caritas and Don Bosco).
There are over 100 people who braved the chilly Long Island Sound, including two Rye High School students from our parish Jack Buttigieg, senior (left) and Daniel Damascus, junior (right). Mike Dailey, Chair, Resurrection Outreach and Phil Gormley, Event Director, Resurrection parishioner also participated. Congratulations to all the BRRAVE plungers for supporting this-worldly cause

PREP NEWS
The Archdiocese of New York has mandated that in light of the recent COVID surge, we should suspend in-person learning for the next three weeks, in our Religious Education CCD Classes.
The new PREP class start dates will be as follows:
Sunday classes- January 30th
Tuesday classes day/evening - Feb 1st
Wednesday classes - February 2nd
In order to make up this lost in-person instructional time, we will be adding 15 minutes to each class. Day Classes for the remainder of the year will run from 3:45 pm - 5:15 pm and Evening Classes will run from 7:00 pm to 8:30 pm.
We thank you for your cooperation and patience during these unprecedented times as we strive to do what is most prudent for the health and well-being of our students and catechists while continuing to provide the best possible faith formation for all. We are grateful to our dedicated teachers and staff.
Today's Gospel
Gospel: Luke 3:15-16, 21-22
John the Baptist had claimed one would come far more powerful than himself, one who would baptize with the Holy Spirit rather than water. When Jesus came to John and was baptized, the Spirit descended on him and a voice said, “You are my beloved Son. On you my favor rests.”

SHED BAD HABITS IN THE NEW YEAR
Bad habits are sinful inclinations acquired through repetition. Unless we overcome them, they come between us and God and can destroy our peace. Working to overcome our bad habits puts us on the path to true holiness.
- Identify the root. It sounds simple, but recognizing what causes us to sin repeatedly is the first step to overcoming the behavior. That doesn’t mean it’s easy to do. It can be uncomfortable to look at our failings, but change won’t come without courage. Ask for help if you need it.
- Replace a bad habit with a good one. Once we understand what is behind our bad habits, we can replace them with new and healthy ways to deal with the underlying issue. If we overeat or drink too much when stressed, for example, we can adopt exercise or meditation to cope instead.
- Eliminate triggers. Make it easier to cure bad habits by avoiding the conditions that nurture them. Do you want to avoid eating junk food? Don’t have it around you at home or at work. Want to change a gossip habit? Avoid the people with whom you gossip. Change your environment to change your behavior.
- Find good influences. It may not be necessary to lose your old friends, but consider finding new ones who already live the way you want to live.
