Heaven on Earth … Friday’s from 6 pm to 7 pm

Hopefully you are both healthy, but just suppose your spouse approached you to-day and said, “The doctor said I only have a year to live.” Share your feelings about this news. Then talk about how you would spend this next year if it were true. Can you do one of the actions this year?

Another time the confessor said to me, “Comport yourself before God like the widow in the Gospel; although the coin she dropped into the box was a little value, it counted far more before God than all the big offering of others.” (55)

Due to Covid-19 the Diocese will not allow us to use our hall to store, sort or distribute food this year.

We have discussed several options to provide food for those that are already calling our Helpline and registering for our meals. We have decided that we will give Grocery Gift Cards directly to those recipients.

To accommodate those in need, this year we are grateful for donations of Cash, check, or a gift card with a SVDP designa-tion on your envelope. (Checks made payable to SVDP). They can be donated at the masses or dropped off at the church office to be given directly to SVDP.

1 Thessalonians 4:13-14 Mga kapatid, nais naming malaman ninyo ang katotohanan tungkol sa mga namatay na upang hindi kayo magdalamhati tulad ng mga taong walang pag-asa. Dahil naniniwala tayong si Jesus ay namatay at muling nabuhay, naniniwala din tayong bubuhayin ng Diyos upang isama kay Jesus ang lahat ng mga namatay na sumasampalataya sa kanya. We do not want you to be unaware, brothers and sisters, about those who have fallen asleep, so that you may not grieve like the rest, who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose, so too will God, through Jesus, bring with him those who have fallen asleep.

Pope Francis Advent Homily; focus on St. Joseph and his silent obedience

By Christopher Wells Vatican News Release: In the homily at the morning Mass, Pope Francis said Saint Joseph “took up” the fatherhood of Jesus, “a paternity that was not his own, but God’s.” In difficulties, in troubles, in dark-ness, we learn from St Joseph who knew “how to walk in darkness,” “how to listen to the voice of God,” “how to go forward in silence.” That was Pope Francis’ reflection during the morning Mass at the Casa Santa Marta, commenting on the day’s Gospel. Jesus, he explained, was born of Mary, the spouse of Jo-seph, the son of David.

Joseph believed and obeyed The Pope reflected on the emotions felt by Joseph when the signs of Mary’s pregnancy appeared after she returned from the house of Elizabeth: He spoke of his “doubts,” his “sorrow,” of his “suffering,” while all around him people began to murmur – the “gossip of the neighborhood.” He “did not understand,” but he knew that Mary was “a woman of God”: and so, he decided “to send her away quietly,” not accusing her publicly. Such was his intention until “the Lord intervened,” through an angel, in a dream, who explained how the child had been conceived in her through the Holy Spirit. And so “he believed and obeyed”: “Joseph fought within himself; in that struggle, the voice of God [is heard]: ‘But get up’ — that ‘Get up’ [which is heard] so many times in the Bible at the beginning of a mission — ‘Take Mary, bring her to your home. Take charge of the situation; take this situation in hand and go forward.’ Joseph didn’t go to his friends be comforted; he didn’t go to a psychiatrist so that he could interpret the dream. No… He believed. And he went forward. He took the situation in hand. But what must you take in hand, Joseph? What was the situation? What was it that Joseph had to take up? Two things: fatherhood, and mystery.” Taking charge of the fatherhood First, the Pope continued, Joseph had to take charge of the “fatherhood.” And this is already implied in the genealogy of Jesus, which explains how He “was thought to be the son of Joseph: “He took on a paternity that was not his own: it came from the Father. And he went ahead with that fatherhood and all it signified: not only supporting Mary and the Child, but also raising the Child, teaching Him his trade, bringing Him up to manhood. ‘Take up a paternity that is not yours, but God’s.” And this, without saying a word. In the Gospel, there is not a single word spoken by Joseph. A man of silence, of silent obedience.” Taking in hand the mystery of leading people back to God Joseph is also the man who “takes in hand” the mystery. The first Mystery explains that it is the mystery of “bringing the people back to God,” the mystery of the re-Creation — which, as the liturgy tells us, is “even more wondrous” than the first. “Joseph took in hand this mystery and help: with silence, with his work, up to the moment when God called him to Himself. It is said of this man, who took up the fatherhood and the mystery, that he was the shadow of the Father: the shadow of God the Father. And if the man Jesus learned to say ‘daddy,’ ‘father,’ to His Father Who He knew as God, He learned it from life, from the witness of Joseph, the man who guarded [Him], the man who raised [Him], the man who carried forward every paternity and every mystery, but took nothing for himself.” This, Pope Francis said, is “the great Joseph,” who God needed to carry forward “the mystery of leading the people anew to the new Creation

Es de esperarse que ustedes dos gozan de buena salud, pero imagina que tu cónyuge viene y te dice, “El médico dice que me queda un año de vida no más.” Compartan las emociones que sentirían al escuchar tal noticia, y conversen sobre lo que ha-rían durante ese año si fuera verdad. ¿Podrían re-alizar una de estas acciones este año?
