Dear Family, Grace and Peace to You in Christ Jesus! 3° Domingo de Adviento 3rd Sunday of Advent December 16th, 2018 Dear Family, Grace and peace to you in Christ Jesus! I pray that as we come to the midpoint of our Advent season, that you are taking in the mystery of this most holy season and are preparing your- selves for the coming of the Lord, at Christmas. The words from our first reading from Zephaniah seem too good to be true. Like Santa Claus, the Savior comes to make everything good. Enemies are taken away, including shame and guilt, and our God rejoices over us and renews us in love. Better than the bank calling and saying we have canceled your mortgage. Could it be true? Then John comes along in the Gospel and defines the spiritual life as being honest and fair in our dealings with oth- ers. He preaches that such a life as this, not one of empty rituals, opens the door to salvation. This salvation enters when compassion for others makes us one with others. Joy comes when we are connected with all things, not against others in an ego driven life. John’s baptism brings people to an authentic spirituality. Notice, this takes place in water, a symbol of life, in the Jor- dan river. John and the people who seek God are not in the Temple or the Synagogue. The old order is further re- moved when Jesus comes to baptize with fire. The fire will burn away all that keeps us from union with God. Let us realize that the God we seek is with us, and when we celebrate Eucharist we commune with God. The tran- scendence in all of us becomes united and the transforming power of Christ is made present and can heal all that is broken, all that keeps us from living together in love. Let our “Amen” be our recognition, consent and union with God in all things. Please join us for our Advent Penance Service on Tuesday, December 18th at 6:30PM. We will have 4-5 priests from around the area to hear confessions. This is the best gift you can give yourself, as you prepare for the coming of the Christ child at Christmas. Please support our Youth Group after Mass this weekend, as they prepare for the Summer Steubenville Conferences. Thank you for generosity in making our youth a priority. That is all for now! Have a blessed week! In His Joy, Fr.

  • THE INFANT JESUS: the Purpose of Advent Is to Celebrate and Seek to Understand the True Meaning of Jesus’ Birth
    WHAT IS Advent? Advent is the period preceding Christmas Day that begins the nearest Sunday to November 30 and covers four Sundays. Because the day it begins changes from year to year, so does the length of each advent season. Advent 2019 begins on December 1 and ends December 24th. Advent is a time of preparing, sharing, and reflecting that leads up to celebrating the birth of Jesus our Lord. Christian families often light candles on advent wreaths, share faith stories, and find quiet moments to reflect on what the birth of Jesus really means. Each Sunday at worship services an advent candle is lighted, and passages of scripture are shared about hope, love, joy and peace. Usually, the Christmas eve and Christmas day candles are different colors from the rest of the candles. Children often make ornaments representing symbols of Christianity, like doves, angels and stars. Come to the manger with us this advent. Come where the ordinary becomes special and wonder is awesome. Come and receive the blessing of Advent… Jesus, God’s only begotten son. AN ADVENT MESSAGE FROM REV. MARLA C. HAWKINS Our Advent focus this year is on the manger where Jesus was placed at his birth. Often times we see symbols but miss the message that they bring. The manger though a simple feeding device, holds significant meanings worth our consideration. Perhaps coming to the manger means considering a lowly place where seemingly nothing significant happens. Also, It could mean to come to an unlikely place to receive a miracle. None the less, This is a time to meet Jesus at the manger, see the angels proclaim the everlasting miracle and be in the presence of the prince of peace.

  • Distinctive Traditions of Epiphany by Amber and John Inscore Essick
    Copyright © 2011 Center for Christian Ethics at Baylor University Distinctive Traditions of Epiphany BY AMBER AND JOHN INSCORE ESSICK The Epiphany feast completes the season of Christmas by inviting us to discern the identity of the Christ child. Three traditions—baking a Kings’ Cake, marking a door lintel with the Magi’s blessing, and elaborating worship with lighted candles—help us interpret the Christmas season appropriately. o celebrate the feast of Epiphany is to continue down the liturgical path that originates in the anticipatory weeks of Advent. The feast Tcompletes the season of Christmas by inviting us to discern the identity of the Christ child. Like the Magi who anticipated, recognized, and welcomed the infant king, congregations and families can recognize and proclaim the appearance of God’s chosen one. Thus, Epiphany is the culmination of the Christmas season, not its ending. Recovering three historical Epiphany traditions—baking a Kings’ Cake, marking a door lintel with the Magi’s blessing, and elaborating worship with lighted candles—can help God’s people interpret the Christmas season appropriately. The KINGs’ CAKE Just as the Magi made a careful search for the child king upon his birth, so we should acknowledge that an important component of our faith involves seeking and searching for the Lord in unlikely places. One delightful way to celebrate Epiphany in the home is to prepare and eat a Kings’ Cake with friends and family. In this symbolic search for the baby Jesus, children and adults gather to eat a delicious cake or pastry with a toy baby hidden inside.

  • Mexico's Christmas Gifts to the Philippines ROSES & THORNS by Alejandro R
    Mexico's Christmas gifts to the Philippines ROSES & THORNS By Alejandro R. Roces (The Philippine Star) Updated December 19, 2009 12:00 AM MANILA, DECEMBER 19, 2009 (STAR) ROSES & THORNS By Alejandro R. Roces We have many old Christmas symbols. Probably the oldest is the Nativity scene, known by its Spanish name belen, or Bethlehem. This is a tradition that is believed to have originated way back in 1223 when St. Francis celebrated Christmas by depicting the Nativity scene complete with live donkey, sheep and ox. By the 17th century, the custom reached Spain, and a century later it was introduced in Mexico from where it was brought to the Philippines. Originally, the only human figures in the belen were the Holy Couple and the Holy Infant. The Three Kings were added during the Epiphany. Like the belen some of our prominent Christmas customs either filtered through or originated in Mexico. The Christmas tree tradition started in the Philippines only during the American colonial rule in the country. But even before that we had a botanical symbol of Christmas — the Flor de la Noche Buena (flower of Christmas Eve), a plant that was introduced here from Mexico through the galleon trade. The Aztecs called them Cuetlaxochitle and used their bracts or modified leaves to make a reddish dye. Originally, we knew it by the name of pascua; but around the world it is commonly known as the poinsettia. There are two legends that we know behind the pascua. One goes that a girl who was separated from her lover died of grief on Christmas Eve.

  • LUMINARIA What’S Your Bag? Text: John 1:6-9, 15
    LUMINARIA What’s Your Bag? Text: John 1:6-9, 15 What Is Christmas About? If someone walked up to you at the supermarket or train station and said: “Excuse me, I’ve just arrived here from Offthebeatentrackland, and I’m trying to understand the customs you have here in America, especially this “Christmas” holiday of yours. I know it has something to do with BAGS. I’ve seen pictures of a big man in a red suit carrying a huge bag on his back. I see people carrying all sorts of brightly colored bags with names on them. I’ve even been in homes where they have these sock-shaped bags hung near their fireplaces. Christmas is clearly all about bags. Have I got that right? Is that what Christmas is about for you?” How would you answer? Author Steve May writes: “Every year I tell myself that I should keep a list of all the things people say Christmas is supposed to be about — because every year it seems the descriptions get a little more off track. You hear it on talk shows, in Christmas specials, in office conversations, in political speeches, and on and on. You know what I mean. They say things like: ‘Giving —isn't that what Christmas is all about?’ Or, ‘Helping the unfortunate — isn't that what Christmas is all about?’ Or, ‘Being with family — isn't that what Christmas is all about?’” In one of his “straight-from-the-Headlines” routines, Jay Leno even featured an advertisement from a local newspaper that had been placed by the "Center for Dental Implants." The ad says, "The Gift of Chewing Is What the Holidays Are All About."1 Now, if you’re anything like me, then you’ve likely exercised THAT gift plentifully over the past few weeks.
