HOLY FAMILY PAGE 1 DECEMBER 27, 2015
Through a Glass DarklyThrough a Glass DarklyThrough a Glass Darkly MERRY CHRISTMAS: What an incredible weekend! Merry Christmas to
everyone! The promise that God would save us has been fulfilled in
history and also in our lives each day. God saves. He saves us from our
sins. He saves us from those fears that eat at our hearts. He saves us
from loneliness.
The crowds this past Thursday and Friday were huge. I love it when the
family comes together. I love to see our alumni come to worship here
when they are home from school. I love it when our graduates, who are
now married and have their own children, come home and come to Lakes.
I love it when I see new faces who are joining us for this season. I love the
crowds, the noise, the crying babies and smiling faces. I love the singing,
the brass, the timpani, the pianos, guitars and organ. I love the flowers but
mostly, I love celebrating these sacred and holy mysteries.
I want to thank the members of the parish community, led by Tim
Wolowiec, who decorated the church. I want to thank Tim Smith, our
music minister, for all the great music from the Christmas Concert through
the Christmas masses. I want to thank Jackie Thompson, and the
members of the Contemporary Ensemble, for their ministry at the
Christmas Concert and the Christmas masses. I want to thank Jenna
Fuller, the Assistant Music Minister, for her work with Tim throughout
Advent and Christmas. I want to thank our staff for setting up the Social
Hall to accommodate the overflow crowds. I want to thank the ushers for
their job in making sense out of the chaos.
And I want to thank God for bringing us all together.
I have always said “Once a Laker, always a Laker” to describe the parish
family. This year the school has a new slogan that is also quite
appropriate; “Praise the Maker it’s great to be a Laker.”
Peace

FR. BRIAN’S BLESSINGS
Merry Christmas! I pray that the joy of the
greatest gift of God's love lasts in your hearts and
homes this whole season. Although the radio
stations will return to their regularly scheduled
programs, the decorations will come down at
Great Lakes Crossing, and most of the world will
move on to the next holiday, as Catholics we
know the joys of Christmas cannot be contained
on one mere day. The Church rejoices in the
Lord for whom we have be waiting for a full eight
days, the octave of Christmas. Then, we
experience the joys of the whole Christmas
season until the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord
in January. So, leave those Nativity sets up and
continue to spread the love, peace, and joy of the
season... It's still Christmas! God is with us!
Emmanuel has come!
There is so much to celebrate in the
Christmas season...
The feast of St. Stephen, patron of deacons
(happy feast to our deacons here!) The feast of
the Holy Innocents, those first little ones to give
their lives for Christ. The feast of St. John, the
Apostle and author of the beautiful, poetic Fourth
Gospel.
Today then is the feast of the Holy Family of
Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. Today's feast reminds
us that we are all called to holiness right where
we are at, in the midst of families, jobs, school
work, and every day life. As Mary and Joseph
sought to make their home a loving, peaceful
place for God to dwell with His people, let us pray
that our homes too will be havens of
unconditional love, support, mercy, and peace.
Through the intercession of His Holy Family,
may Christ bless you and yours and make them
holy as well.
Fr. Brian

Please welcome to our Christian family: Anthony and Andrea Evens.
Remember to introduce yourself to new faces in church. We want everyone to feel welcome at Our Lady of the Lakes.
ST. VINCENT de PAUL
NOVEMBER UPDATE
Our Lady of the Lakes, St. Vincent de Paul continues to
work hard to help those in need. We answered over 150
phone calls, made 9 home visits, had 10 interviews in the
Parish Center, drove 90 miles and helped 158 people. Our
very generous parish donated $19,024.80 and we wrote
checks to help those in need totaling $13,758.58. As you
can see, we have been busy.
One case that stands out was a young family with 2
small children. Because of an injury the father, who was a
brick layer, needed to find new employment. His injury left
him unable to work as a brick layer. He was off work and is
now working at a much lower wage. We helped them catch
up on their rent. Going forward they will have a tight budget
but should be able to pay their bills. We can help these
families only because you donate to us. Thank you for
supporting OLL St. Vincent de Paul.
Start 2016 with the Gospel of John
THURSDAY BIBLE STUDY
Make a resolution now to start the year right with a study of the Gospel of John. You don’t have to be a Bible scholar or have any bible study experience to enjoy and share in our discussions. All are welcome! We will look at a couple of chapters of John per week focusing on what we can learn about God and how it applies to our everyday lives. Our study of John’s account of Christ’s life will take us through Lent and finish during the Easter season paralleling these times in the church year. Our first meeting will be Thursday, January 7th at 10:00am in the Religious Education building. Please join us. For more details or questions contact Cindy Brown at 248-623-6136 or email [email protected].
COMMUNION TO HOMEBOUND
Can you help with three different individuals that need
communion taken to their home. They live in three different
Waterford locations. The first lives off Dixie Hwy. close to
Kmart, the second off North Oakland Blvd. & M-59, and the
third off Cooley Lake Rd. Please call Cindy Webster at 248
-623-0274 if you can help. All volunteers need to take the
Protecting God’s Children class. If you haven't taken it yet
we can help you find a location.
REST IN PEACE
Remember those who have
gone before us

Rosemary Roach
“Happy are those who have
died in the Lord;
Let them rest from their labors
For their good deeds go with them.”
Our thoughts and prayers are with their families. May
the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God,
rest in peace. Amen.

STEWARDSHIP THOUGHTS
The two themes of family honor and obedience link
today’s Scripture readings. The Book of Sirach states that
those who honor their father and revere their mother atone
for their sins and store up riches. Those who take care of
aging parents are also not forgotten — their kindness is
planted as an offering against sin. In the Gospel, Mary and
Joseph find Jesus in the Temple after an extensive search.
St. Luke proclaims that they return to Nazareth, and Jesus
obeys them. Good stewardship begins at home. The
Second Vatican Council, and later Pope St. John Paul II,
described the family as the “Domestic Church.” The two

MARRIAGE: LOVE AND LIFE IN
THE DIVINE PLAN
Marriage in the Church: “As a vocation, or call from God, marriage has a public and ecclesial status within the Church.
Catholic spouses ordinarily exchange marital consent within a church setting, before a priest or deacon. The living-out of marriage takes place within the whole Body of Christ, which it serves and in which it finds nourishment.”
