JMJ

December 24, 2017 My Dearest Parish Family, God be with us always. A Blessed Christmas and a Grace-filled New Year to us all.

In one of the cards given to me during my 28th Priestly Ordination Anniversary – I read the followings words: “Our greatest blessing is to receive God’s love, our greatest privilege is to give it away to others.”

These words take meaning and relevance as we enter into the Season Christmas. We have all done all our rituals and preparation to celebrate the Birth of Our Saviour. We have decorated and brightened our homes with lights that reflect the greater light of Joy and Hope from the Manger in Bethlehem.

We took time to search for gifts that would manifest our love for those who are significant in our lives. God our Loving Father reminds us that the greatest of gifts is one that comes from the heart because it is something we keep for a lifetime. He sent His Son, our Lord Jesus born of a woman so that He might show us the Way, speak of the Truth and live in God’s Love.

Christ should never be taken out of Christmas – for us who believe – our greetings should always be “Merry Christmas” and never merely Happy Holidays. God’s saving love was made incarnate on Christmas Day and He is Jesus Christ. The fulfillment of our longing is now real – our watching allows us to find hope and our preparing bestows upon us an experience of the divine grace. May we spend many precious blissful moments of celebrating the presence

of the Emmanuel, the God with us, with our loved ones.

From today let us rise to the challenge to use our privilege to share the love of God we receive on Christmas to those who pass through our lives especially those in need. May the love emanating from our Lord – the Christ Child - the Emmanuel inspire us to practice the maxim: “It is impossible to love without giving.” May each day from Christmas onwards be an opportunity to grow, to learn and to live in love. God bless and take care. Once again, a hope and joy filled Merry Christmas to all. Love and prayers,

Fr. Thomas Paul K. Naval

JMJ 24 de diciembre de 2017 Mi Querida Familia Parroquial, Dios esté con nosotros siempre. Una muy bendecida Navidad y un Año Nuevo lleno de gracia para todos nosotros.

En una de las tarjetas que me dieron durante mi 28 aniversario de ordenación sacerdotal, leí las siguientes palabras: "Nuestra mayor bendición es recibir el amor de Dios, nuestro mayor privilegio es regalarlo a otros".

Estas palabras adquieren significado y

relevancia a medida que entramos en la temporada de Navidad. Todos hemos hecho nuestros rituales y preparación para celebrar el nacimiento de nuestro Salvador. Hemos decorado e iluminado nuestros hogares con luces que reflejan la luz mayor de Alegría y esperanza del pesebre en Belén.

Nos tomamos el tiempo para buscar regalos que pudieran manifestar nuestro amor por aquellos que son importantes en nuestras vidas. Dios, nuestro Padre Amoroso, nos recuerda que el mayor de los regalos es uno que proviene del corazón porque es algo que conservamos para toda la vida. Él envió a su Hijo, nuestro Señor Jesús, nacido de una mujer para que nos muestre el camino, hable de la verdad y viva en el amor de Dios.

A Cristo nunca se le debe quitar de la Navidad, para nosotros que creemos, nuestros saludos siempre deben ser "Feliz Navidad" y nunca Felices Fiestas. El amor salvador de Dios se hizo encarnar el día de Navidad y Él es Jesucristo. El cumplimiento de nuestro anhelo es ahora real: nuestra observación nos permite encontrar esperanza y nuestra preparación nos otorga una experiencia de la gracia divina. Que pasemos muchos momentos preciosos y felices de celebrar la presencia del Emmanuel, el Dios con nosotros, con nuestros seres queridos.

A partir de hoy asumamos el desafío de utilizar nuestro privilegio para compartir el amor de Dios que recibimos en Navidad con aquellos que pasan por nuestras vidas especialmente aquellos que lo necesitan. Que el amor que emana de nuestro Señor - el Niño Jesús - el Emmanuel nos inspire a practicar la máxima: "Es imposible amar sin dar". Que cada día a partir de Navidad sea una oportunidad para crecer, aprender y vivir en amor...Dios lo bendiga y cuide. Una vez más, una esperanza y alegría llenó Feliz Navidad para todos.

Con amor y mis oraciones,

Fr. Thomas Paul K. Naval

December 24th and December 25th

This year Christmas Eve falls on a Sunday. All Catholics have an obligation to attend Mass twice: once celebrating the Fourth

Sunday of Advent (Saturday evening or during the day Sunday) and a second time celebrating the Feast of the Nativity (Christmas Eve beginning at 4pm or Christmas Day). Mary’s example of responding “yes” to the call of God (4th Sunday of Advent Gospel) helps us respond “yes” to accepting the Prince of Peace, Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God into our lives on Christmas. Please see the Christmas schedule for Mass times.

The Mission of the Archdiocese for the Military

Services, USA (AMS) is “Serving those who Serve.”

DECEMBER 30th & 31st The ministry of the AMS is to meet the spiritual needs of Catholics

who are serving—or have served—our Country at home and abroad. The AMS is the only archdiocese, or non-profit organization, that provides the Catholic Church’s full range of pastoral ministries and spiritual services specifically to Catholics serving in the United States Armed Forces, enrolled in U.S. Military Academies, undergoing treatment at any of the 153 Department of Veterans Affairs’ Medical Centers, working in civilian jobs for the federal government beyond U.S. borders, and the families of these populations. Military chaplains are the front-line spiritual envoys who provide you and your loved one’s access to the sacraments, spiritual counseling, evangelization and catechesis, and other forms of pastoral care. The AMS receives no funding from the U.S. Government or the U.S. Military in support of its ministry and related programs and services. The AMS relies solely on private donations and the generosity of the Catholic community. This year’s, (2017-2018) RCIA class will be conducting a “free will” donation outside of Church the weekend of December 30th & 31st. Those of us who are veterans and experienced the comfort and support of Catholic Chaplin’s please remember them with your gift. Those families that have children or relatives still serving our country, please support as best you well.

Look for the total accounting of your generosity in a future bulletin! Thank you.

Adviento (sábado por la noche o el domingo) y por segunda vez se celebra la fiesta de la Natividad (nochebuena que comienza a las 4:00pm o el día de Navidad). El ejemplo de Maria de responder “si” al llamado de Dios (cuarto domingo del Evangelio de Adviento) nos ayuda a responder “si” a aceptar al Príncipe de la Paz, Consejero maravilloso, Dios fuerte en nuestra vidas en Navidad.

Una Pintura Sin Firma

En el mes de noviembre, de este año, mi esposa y yo fuimos a Guanajuato, para celebrar la boda de uno de nuestros ahijados. Estando allí en la ciudad, visitamos los templos más concurridos de este lugar. Por la gracia de Dios, conocimos a una señora, que amablemente nos mostró por dentro dos de estos templos, e incluso áreas donde al turismo no se le permite entrar. Estos lugares están llenos de pinturas muy antiguas de artistas muy famosos. Nos llamó mucho la atención que encontramos una gran cantidad de imágenes y pinturas de nuestra Madre María. La mayoría de estas pinturas, tenían en la parte de abajo la firma del artista que pintó aquellos cuadros. ¿Por qué menciono precisamente que estos cuadros estaban firmados por el autor? Pues, les diré por qué. En este tiempo de Adviento, estoy leyendo y meditando el libro llamado “33 días para un Glorioso Amanecer”, el cual es uno de los libros usados para la consagración a la Virgen María. La portada de este libro tiene un retrato de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe. Aparte de leer y meditar lo que contienen las páginas de este libro, he estado contemplando el rostro de la Virgen de Guadalupe cada mañana. Contemplar el rostro de la Virgen, me ha llevado a enamorarme más de María, mi madre. Me he dejado cautivar por su belleza, su mirada, su bondad, su pureza, amor y su santidad. Aquí viene el “asunto de la firma” y es que, si miramos bien, en la imagen original de la Virgen de Guadalupe no podemos encontrar “la firma” de ningún artista. ¿La razón? ¡El artista de esta imagen es Dios mismo! que quiso dejar plasmada la imagen verdadera de nuestra madre santísima en el sencillo ayate de San Juan Diego. Hermano, hermana, hoy te invito para que dediques un tiempo de tu día a contemplar el rostro de María de Guadalupe, y te dejes cautivar y conquistar por su amor. Santa María: ¡Ruega por nosotros!

¡Dios te bendiga!

Diácono Humberto Ramirez

¡Bodas Comunitarias!

Las bodas comunitarias son una oportunidad que iglesia brinda para que formalices tu compromiso de amor con tu pareja, sea que ya lleven tiempo viviendo juntos sin casarse o que solo estén casados por el civil.

Las próximas Bodas Comunitarias serán el 10 de febrero de 2018

Les queremos invitar, a asistir a un retiro de parejas, que será ofrecido en español el domingo 28 de enero de 2018, en nuestra parroquia en preparación para recibir la bendición de su matrimonio en las Bodas comunitarias. Recuerden que asistir a un retiro en preparación para su matrimonio es uno de los requisitos para una boda en la Iglesia Católica. Es además una oportunidad para que las parejas descubran la importancia de la presencia de Cristo en su relación, así como la vocación del amor dentro del Matrimonio. Para más información o para inscripciones, llamar a la Oficina Parroquial. El retiro también está abierto a aquellas parejas ya casadas que deseen una renovación en su relación.

Les deseamos a todas las familias de nuestra comunidad parroquial una

muy Feliz Navidad y un venturoso año nuevo 2018.
