A Prayer for the Family (Composed by St. ) Heavenly Father, you have given us the model of life in the Holy Family of Nazareth. Help us, O Loving Father, to make our family another Nazareth where love, peace & joy reign. May it be deeply contemplative, intensely eucharistic, revived with joy. Help us to stay together in joy and sorrow in family prayer. Teach us to see Jesus in the members of our families, especially in their distressing disguise. May the eucharistic heart of Jesus make our hearts humble like his and help us to carry out our family duties in a holy way. May we love one another as God loves each one of us, more and more each day, and forgive each other's faults as you forgive our sins. Help us, O Loving Father, to take what- ever you give and give whatever you take with a big smile. Immaculate Heart of Mary, cause of our joy, pray for us. St. Joseph, pray for us. Holy Guardian Angels, be always with us, guide and protect us. Amen 5 pm Mass* New Year’s Eve, Thursday, December 31 10 am Mass* New Year’s Day, Friday, January 1 (*There will be overflow seating with live streaming, as needed for New Year’s. Holy Communion will be brought to those in overflow seating.)

December 27, 2020 help His mother and Joseph around the house and assist Dear Friends in Christ, Joseph in his carpentering trade. Today we celebrate the Feast of the Holy Family, the Our family life becomes sanctified when we live the title given to this family unit: the Divine Son of God Jesus life of the Church within our homes. This is called the who became man, His mother the Mary & His "domestic church" or the "church in miniature." St. John foster-father Joseph. Devotion to the Holy Family grew Chrysostom (349-407) urged all Christians to make each in popularity in the 17th century. Several religious home a "family church," and in doing so, we sanctify the congregations were founded under this title. On October family unit. In the document Lumen Gentium #11 26, 1921, Benedict XV added this feast day to the (Constitution of the Church) of Vatican II, it states: “The Church’s calendar for the Sunday after Epiphany. Prior to family, is so to speak, the domestic church.” Pope John 1921, this feast was celebrated only regionally. Paul II elaborated much on the domestic church in his before Benedict XV, especially Leo XIII, promoted this teachings. feast as a way to counteract the breakdown of the family. Just how does one live out the Church in the family? Interesting that 100 years ago people were concerned The best way is by making Christ the center of family and about the family. We are still concerned about the family individual life. Ways to do this include: reading scripture today. In 1969, the feast was moved to the Sunday after regularly, praying daily, attending Mass as a family on Christmas. Sundays and other Holy Days, imitating the actions of the We know very little about the life of the Holy Family Holy Family, working and praying as a family both at through the Gospels. We hear of the birth of Jesus in home & at church, etc., all done together as a family unit. Bethlehem, His circumcision and presentation in the January 1st is a holy day, Mary, Mother of God. The temple, fleeing to Egypt due to King Herod’s order to kill Mass schedule is on p. 2. The title, Mother of God, every boy under the age of two; losing the 12 year old reflects the truth that the Son of God, one divine Person Jesus and finding Him in the Temple (lack of effective with 2 natures both divine & human, was born in time by communication between Mary & Joseph, thinking Jesus Mary. See p. 9 for a further explanation. We also pray was with the other parent).

The Holy Family respecting the dignity of every human being. experienced the many joys and challenges that all families encounter.

“There is no greater love, than to lay down one’s life for one’s friend.” John 15: 13 p. 4 WE ARE GOD’S HOLY FAMILY TODAY’S READINGS The scriptures of Israel are filled with many stories of First Reading — Those who honor their parents will be barren couples who were miraculously granted the gift of chil- greatly blessed and will atone for sins dren by God. Surely the best known among these is the first reading from today, from which Luke took inspiration when he (Sirach 3:2-6,12-14) or Genesis 15:1-6; 21:1-3. recounted the miraculous birth of to Zechariah Psalm — Blessed are those who fear the Lord and walk and Elizabeth, and the more miraculous birth of Jesus to Mary in his ways (Psalm 128) or Psalm 105 and Joseph. In each instance, we are given examples or role Second Reading — Be thankful; do everything in the models of those who trusted in God. More than examples of name of the Lord Jesus (Colossians 3:12-21 [12-17]) or those who trust, they are models of self-surrender. They aban- Hebrews 11:8, 11-12, 17-19. doned their own presuppositions and prejudices about the Gospel — The child grew and became strong, filled with workings of the world and turned their lives over to belief in a wisdom (Luke 2:22-40 [22, 39-40]). God who can make life grow where none ought to; a God who can turn death around into a new and unimagined life; a God who can, today, take a tiny child of humble parents in an insig- nificant town and make him into a light for all the world.

A bow signifies reverence & honor shown to the names or event being mentioned. We are to do the following: 1) A bow of the head is made when the three Divine Persons (the Trinity) are named together and at the names of Jesus, of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and of the Saint in whose honor Mass is being celebrated. 2) A bow of the body (a profound bow) is made during the Creed with the words “and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.” —General Instruction to the Roman Missal, #275

Christmas Trees, Flowers & Decoration Fund

Now that you have seen the art & environment for Christmas, hopefully you find it attractive. So if you have not contributed yet for Christmas trees, flowers & decoration fund, please do so. We have invested in some Christmas trees, decorations, flower pot containers, etc., that can be reused for years to come. Though there is an upfront cost, it is an investment savings for years to come. So please be generous. Thank you.

Sanctuary of Life This weekend we celebrate the Feast of the Holy Family. Though he was conceived of a virgin, Jesus never- theless lived as a son in a human family -- a family which points the way for the rest of us. The family is the sanctuary of life. There can be no life without family, & there can be no family without life. The family, above all, is where life is to be welcomed, no matter how fragile or inconvenient it may be. One of the many rea- sons why the Pope & bishops identify abortion & euthanasia as pre-eminent issues is because these offens- es are committed by one family member upon another. May the Holy Family lead us to a Culture of Life!

Mary, Mother of God All Marian feasts reflect a truth more about Jesus than Mary. Mary is called the “Mother of God.” This title comes from the Greek word “” which means “bearer of God.” This teaching reflects the truth about Jesus Christ, that He is truly God as well as truly man, one divine Person with two natures: divine and human. The Council of Ephesus in 431 A.D. declared “If anyone does not confess that God is truly Emmanuel, and that on this account the holy virgin is the mother of God (for according to the flesh she gave birth to the Word of God become flesh by birth), let him be anathema (condemned).” The Council carefully stated that Mary is the Mother of God “according to the flesh” born into time on this earth so as to emphasize that she did not give birth to God in the beginning as if she is the source of His divinity. But since Jesus’ divine and human natures are inseparable, Mary is called the mother of God as well as the mother of the man Jesus. This dogma is generally accepted by all Christian denominations.

"Never be afraid of loving Mary too much. You can never love her more than Jesus did." — St. Maximilian Kolbe
