DECEMBER 20, 2015 3 NATIVITY OF OUR LORD CHRISTMAS - DECEMBER 25, 2015 MATTHEW 2:1-12 When Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, in the days of King Herod, behold, Magi from the East arrived in Jerusalem, saying, “Where is the newborn king of the Jews? We saw His star at its rising and come to do Him homage.” When King Herod heard this, he was greatly troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. Assembling all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Messiah was to be born. They said to him, ”In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it has been written through the prophet: And you, Bethlehem, land of Judah, and by no means least among the rulers of Judah, since from you shall come a ruler, who is to shepherd my people Israel.” Then Herod called the Magi secretly and ascertained from them the time of the star’s appearance. He sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search diligently for the Child. When you have found Him, bring me word, so that I too may go and do him homage. After their audience with the king they set out. And behold, the star that they had seen at its rising proceeded them, until it came and stopped over the place where the Child was. They were overjoyed at seeing the star, and upon entering, they saw the Child with Mary His Mother. They prostrated themselves and did Him homage. Then they opened their treasures and offered Him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. And having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they departed to their country by another route. HOLY SUPPER Holy Supper is a tradition celebrated in Ukrainian homes on Christmas Eve. The house is especially clean. Festive clothing is worn. The table is set with embroidered linen, the finest china, and candles. Under the table and under the tablecloth some hay is strewn. An extra setting is placed in honor of all the deceased members of the family. Kolach (the Christmas bread) is placed in the center of the table. This bread is braided with three rings symbolizing the Blessed Trinity, and circular rings, symbolizing the never-ending Eternity of God. A Didukh, sheaf of wheat stalks, is placed under the icons in the house. The stalks of grain represent all the family members and ancestors, whose spirit, it is believed, joins in the holy day festivities.

    ARCHDIOCESE OF GALVESTON-HOUSTON SAINT MICHAEL the ARCHANGEL CATHOLIC CHURCH FEBRUARY 14, 2021 | SIXTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME A leper came to Jesus and kneeling down begged him and said, “If you wish, you can make me clean.” Moved with pity, he stretched out his hand, touched him, and said to him, “I do will it. Be made clean.” Mark 1:40-41 1801 Sage Road | Houston, Texas 77056 | Tel (713) 621-4370 Fax (713) 850-8341 | stmichaelchurch.net ST. MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL CATHOLIC CHURCH Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time Dear Parish Family, As you read my letter to you today, perhaps you attended Mass this weekend at the parish and are asking yourselves this question: “What will my Lenten sacrifice be this year?” It is an age-old tradition that many Catholics look deep within to reflect upon how they can enter more deeply into the holy and penitential season of Lent. One way is certainly to abstain from something during Lent. Another is to take-on a new practice or ritual during Lent. In either case, both opportunities allow us to grow closer to Christ if we allow Him to be the holiness that we seek in the “doing.” I humbly suggest that it should be our prayer and posture to embody Jesus Christ who has purchased for us, the rewards of eternal life. This is never more real than when we journey with Him into the desert of Lent—asking Him to change our hearts, remove every stain of sin, draw us closer to His heart, mold us into a people who long to see Your face.
