Dear friends, What a blessing it is for me to be a member of this parish. And at this time of year, when we contemplate God’s presence to all of humanity, please permit me to thank you for the many ways that we welcome all people to St. Mary’s. The ministry of hos-pitality here, among so many excellent ministries, shines forth as a very unique and holy part of our parish experience. As we pray for our needs and the needs of the

whole world, I sense the compassion we all feel for human persons everywhere. What a blessing for me to see that we at St. Mary’s are healing human beings near and far by our open hearts and our open arms. We have every reason to thank God now that he has brought forth from us this holy long-ing– to embrace all human persons. And it is this spiritual practice that gives us every reason to be hopeful in the new year that is before us. Thanks and Blessings ~ Fr. John La Encarnación del Hijo de Dios, Navidad. Celebramos la fiesta del misterio de la Encarnación del Hijo de Dios, que conocemos como Navidad. Como regalo de Navidad, quiero compartir con ustedes una historia y una petición. Allá por el año de 1969 escribí una pequeña obra de teatro, en tres actos, titulada "El Cumpleaños de Dios". El primer acto presenta el relato evangélico del naci-miento de Jesús. El segundo acto narra el origen de la fiesta de la Navidad: una fiesta pagana (romana) que se convierte en fiesta cristiana. El tercer acto trata de plantear la pregunta: ¿dejará la Navidad de ser una fiesta cristiana y volverá a ser una fiesta pagana? Porque fuera de las iglesias, parece ser que ya no se habla ni de la Navidad ni del Hijo de Dios que se hizo un Niño para salvar-nos. En algunas partes se llega hasta el extremo de ni siquiera desear una feliz Navidad, sino "felices fiestas", con el pretexto de no ofender a nadie. Por todo esto, quiero pedirles a todos ustedes que no expulsemos a Jesús de nuestras casas ni de nuestro lenguaje. Dios no merece que olvidemos sus muestras de amor a la humanidad. Que nuestros niños y niñas sepan que la Navidad celebra el nacimiento del Hijo de Dios. Es el cumpleaños de Jesús, nuestro Salvador. Deseo a todos ustedes una muy ¡Feliz Navidad! El 25 de diciembre cumplo 41 años de mi ordenación sacerdotal. Los invito a que se unan a mi ac-ción de gracias. Su amigo y servidor ~ Padre Jesús Camacho We celebrate the feast of the Incarnation of the Son of God, which we know as Christmas. As a Christmas gift, I would like to share with you a story and, and at the same time, a request. Back in the year 1969, I wrote a small theatrical script in three acts, titled "God's Birthday." The first act pre-sents the Gospel narrative of the birth of Jesus. The second act recounts the historical and liturgical origin of the feast of Christmas: a pagan Roman feast that was changed to a Christian feast. The third act tries to pose the question: “Will Christmas continue to be a Christian feast or will it return to being a pagan feast?” For indeed, outside of church there is no mention of Christmas anymore nor of the Son of God, who became a child to save us. Some places even go as far as not wishing a “Merry Christmas”, but rather "Happy Holidays," with the pretext of not offending anybody. Because of all of this, I would like to make a request to all of you and that is to not expel Jesus from our homes or our language. God does not deserve for us to forget his great deeds of love for human-kind. May our boys and girls know that Christmas celebrates the birth of the Son of God. It is Jesus' birthday, our Savior coming to the earth! Nothing less. I wish you all a very Merry Christmas! On the 25th of December I celebrate 41 years of ordination. I invite you to join me in my thanks-giving. Your friend and servant ~ Fr. Jesús Camacho

Dear St. Mary’s Parishioners, We at Saint Mary’s Catholic School are so blessed to be able to do God’s work each day by educating our students in our Catholic faith and providing them with a solid academic foundation. As principal of St. Mary’s School, I am so blessed to work with such amazing teachers, students and

their families. It is truly a privilege to serve our school and parish! One of the many things we are working on this year is improving our math program. This school year we have dedicated an hour each day to math instruction. We have also leveled math in our 5th – 8th grade clas-ses. We provide additional help for those students who may struggle in math and challenge those students who are gifted. In all subject areas, we meet students where they are academically, and we challenge them to do the best they can each day. We have also aligned our curriculum with Bishop Kelly High School so our students have a smooth transition to the secondary level. I thank all the parishioners for supporting our school. We could not continue to do our great work without your generosity! All are invited to St. Mary’s School Open House on Sunday, January 29 after the 10:45am Mass. We would love to share the great things going on in our school. On behalf of the teachers and students at St. Mary’s Catholic School, we want to wish all of you a Blessed Christmas Season! Yours for Excellence in Catholic Education,

Tammy Emerich ~ Principal

ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA PERFORMANCE

An extraordinary performance for the entire family is coming to Our Lady of the Rosary, 1500 E Wright Street, at 2pm, Sunday, January 15. Sister Nancy Murray, OP, of the Adrian Dominican Sisters, will perform her one-woman

play on the life of St. Catherine of Siena. In her show, Sister Nan-cy draws special attention to St. Catherine's rowdy family life -- she was the 24th of 25 children -- and how her faith in God led her from a rebellious teen to an exemplary champion of the poor. Tick-ets for $10 are available at showmyevent.com. The event is spon-sored by Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic Church and the Lay Members of the Third Order of St. Dominic. For more information, please call 208-890-5097 or email [email protected].

SEARCHING FOR THOSE ISOLATED PEOPLE OF OUR PARISH

Do you know someone who is lonely, homebound or not in touch with other people? We are reaching out to the parish for help in identifying these people of our faith community. If you know of someone who would benefit from a visit from the faith community nurses, please call the parish office, 344-2597.

Please consider donating to the Msgr. John Creegan Foun-dation of St. Mary's Church. Remembering this foundation in your will or estate ensures the promise of Catho-

lic education to the children of St. Mary's School.
