It’s easy to understand today’s scriptures as events that happened long ago and far away, or predictions that will come true somewhere, some day. But they invite us to claim Christ as our King here and now. Jesus’ words to Collections will be posted Pilate in the Gospel remind us that his king- dom transcends time and place. And the prophecies from Daniel and Revelation give us next week reason to be faithful to Christ our King right here and right now. By concluding the year with this feast we are proclaiming our faith that Jesus Christ is because of the the one and only King over all seasons, all peoples, and all of creation. No matter what Thanksgiving Holiday nation we belong to or what language we speak, he “has made us into a king- dom” (Revelation 1:6)—one people united in love and peace for all eternity.

You don’t want to miss his uplifting and inspiring message. MISSIONARY APPEAL - Dec. 1 & 2 A special collection will be taken up for Santa Maria This mission that serves the young and elderly of Mexico was founded in 1975 by Father Anthony Norman, who originally came from Colorado. In 2009, SOLT was asked to serve in leadership of this location. Santa Maria is a nonprofit organization that strives to provide integral formation and refuge for people of all ages. People who find themselves in a state of neglect, who happen to be homeless, malnourished or subject to abuse are invited to have the care that is provided by these facilities. The work consists of five separate houses, all surrounding the town of Colon, Queretaro, situated in central Mexico: A little boys house (1st to 6th grade), a little girls house (1st to 6th grade), a house for teenage girls (7th grade to university), a house for teenage boys (7th grade to university), and a house for the elderly and those with special needs, which also currently serves as the main office. Your generosity will be most appreciated! Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe Page 4 Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe Page 5 TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Although our Puritan forebears at Plymouth Rock were almost a hundred years removed from their Catholic roots, the old liturgical calendar still had an unconscious claim on their hearts. We’ve already seen how on Saint Martin’s Day, November 11, medieval continental Europe observed a great harvest day of Thanksgiving, with games, dances, parades, and a festive dinner of roast goose. With the goose went ample draughts of “Saint Martin’s Wine,” the first wine of the new harvest. Martinmas celebrated full barns and larders stocked for the winter. Even after the Reformation, the tradition of eating goose on Saint Martin’s Day was retained in Holland, and it was there that our Pilgrims encountered this tradi- tion. When Governor Bradford sent four hunters out into the Massachusetts wilderness in the autumn of 1621, they did indeed find some geese and ducks, and were persuaded by the indigenous people to try turkey, too. Just as the liturgical calendar has been tweaked over the years, President Roosevelt moved Thanksgiving to the third Thursday in November in 1939, probably to extend the Christmas shopping season. The protest was so great that in 1941 the day established by President Lincoln, the last Thursday in November, was restored. If the Pilgrims had known of the Martinmas connection, they might never have celebrated at all! CMSE RECERTIFICATION CLASS When: Tuesday, November 27th at 7:00 p.m. Where: St. Matthew Hall Please contact Janie C. Pena at the Parish Office to register or for questions (361) 241-3249 Ext. 106 on Mondays and Tuesdays (any other day please leave a message) CMSE seeks to educate on the prevention and reporting of child abuse, please make child arrangements. What is domestic violence? Domestic violence is any kind of behavior that a person uses, or threatens to use, to control an intimate partner. The two key elements are threat and control. Domestic violence can take various forms: Physical – Violent actions such as hitting, beating, pushing, and kicking. In many cases physical abuse becomes more frequent and severe over time. Sexual – Includes any sexual acts that are forced on one partner by the other Psychological – Includes a wide range of behaviors such as intimidation, isolating the victim from friends and family, controlling where the victim goes, making the victim feel guilty or crazy, and making unreasona- ble demands Emotional – Undermining an individual’s self-esteem, constant criticism, insults, put-downs, and name- calling Economic – Examples include limiting the victim’s access to family income, preventing the victim from working or forcing the victim to work, destroying the victim’s property, and making all the financial decisions Both women and men can be victims of domestic abuse. According to the National Domestic Violence Hot- line statistics, approximately 1 in 4 women and 1 in 7 men over the age of 18 have been the victim of physi- cal domestic violence, and almost 50% of both sexes have experienced some form of domestic psychologi- cal aggression. Characteristics of victims Female, although men can also experience domestic violence Younger, often in their 20’s and 30’s More likely to be dating or cohabiting than married Nearly half live in households with children .

However, if you can’t kill the hen, ask your master; take both of its wings in your left hand, take its neck with your two fingers and cut it under its wattle, be cautious not to cut its neck. Do the same with the goose and chicken. If you use vinegar, be sure to wash your hands before, lest your hands would taint it. If you want to pluck the feathers, don’t use boiling water. The water for the goose and chicken should be colder than the sterlet’s water. After you’re done with plucking the feathers, singe it, put it into clean water, wash it, cut its nails, disembowel it, but put its stomach and liver into a different pot of water to clean it. When slaughtering a pig, take its nose with one of your hand and put a knife into its brisket. Water temperature should be similar to a chicken’s, because you don’t want to burn it.

HISTORIC FOOD COOKERY COURSES Recipes of dishes made or sampled on The Taste of Christmas Cookery Courses 2009. TO MAKE A HACKIN. From a Gentleman in Cumberland. SIR, THERE are some Counties in England, whose Customs are never to be set aside and our Friends in Cumberland, as well as some of our Neighbours in Lancashire, and else-where, keep them up. It is a Custom with us every Christmas-Day in the Morning, to have, what we call an Hackin, for the Breakfast of the young Men who work about our House; and if this Dish is not dressed by that time it is Day-light, the Maid is led through the Town, between two Men, as fast as they can run with her, up Hill and down Hill, which she accounts a great shame. But as for the Receipt to make this Hackin, which is admired so much by us, it is as follows. Take the Bag or Paunch of a Calf, and wash it, and clean it well with Water and Salt ; then take some Beef-Suet, and shred it small, and shred some Apples, after they are pared and cored, very small. Then put in some Sugar, and some Spice beaten small, a little Lemon-Peel cut very fine, and a little Salt, and a good quantity of Grots, or whole Oat-meal, steep'd a Night in Milk; then mix thefe all together, and add as many Currans pick'd clean from the Stalks, and rubb'd in a coarfe Cloth ; but let them not be wash'd.

Box 891, Taichung 407, Taiwan 13 Received 7 March 2016; accepted 16 November 2016 15 17 Abstract 19 This study explores the guiding principle for pairing common western table wines such as Chardonnay, Riesling, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon with authentic Chinese cuisines. Sensory evaluation was carried out to measure the affective level on the pairing of food and wine. A fi 21 ve by eight (4 different wines and no wine pairing with 8 different cuisines) factorial experiment design was carried out to attain the sensory affection from the taste panel. Hedonic rating was adopted to assess the affective response of the cuisine and wine pairings. The results of affective test indicated that Riesling was the preferred wine to pair with most of the Chinese cuisines in question. The interaction was significant 23 between different cuisines and wines (p¼0.000), indicating that the hedonic sensory pattern of the cuisine can be influenced by the type of wine paired. In addition, Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) graph was proven to be an effective tool for visualizing the guiding principle of food and 25 wine pairing. & 2016 AZTI-Tecnalia.
