Summary of the Readings Fourth Sunday of Advent Week of December 18, 2016

Saturday, December 17 As Christmas draws near, Advent’s scriptures lure us into a 4:30 Stella Gawel by The Gawel Family world of dreams, signs, wonders, and the miracle of the virgin Sunday, December 18—Fourth Sunday of Advent birth. Too often we allow the great stories of our faith, the ones 8:00 Albin Sasiadek by Son that are most familiar, simply to wash over us. Today’s Gospel 10:00 Paul, Mary Pat, Sharon & Joe Gannon & Dave Baldwin account of the events leading up to the birth of the Lord reads by Family like a present-day soap opera. Yet Joseph’s courage, even in the 12:00 Florence Rams by Family midst of what must have been an incredibly confusing time, 4:30 Novena in Honor of the Birth of Our Lord provides a model for us. Each week, we are summoned by God to embrace the way of goodness and truth through the Monday, December 19 proclamation of God’s holy word. Like Joseph, we are called to 7:30 Jennie Vertalino by Family do as the Lord commands us. As we stand at the threshold of Novena in Honor of the Birth of Our Lord Christmas, let us have the courage to be open to whatever it is 12:10 Leroy Barnhard by Family that the Lord will require of us as we celebrate the miracle of Edward Sobon (Birthday) by Family Bethlehem.
