It has been around since 1868 although it wasn't formally used in churches until 1892. It is a hymn which is packed with emotion, a song about the Christ Child born to Mary, a song filled with the creative power of God intervening in history with the gift of a savior. For me, "O Little Town of Bethlehem" depicts the Christmas story as a story of hope, a story where the divine and the human come together in an amazing but humble way. It is also an invitation for both the non-believer and the believer. For the non-believer, it is an announcement of what God has done, and for the believer, it is a challenge to increase one's faith. What might surprise you is how this great hymn came to be. It was written by Phillips Brooks, an Episcopal priest. Brooks was serving the Holy Trinity Church in the City of Brotherly Love (Philadelphia, PA). He had just returned from a trip to the Holy Land which inspired him to write the words. "When he returned to America, he still had Palestine singing in his soul." (from Stories of Christmas Carols by Ernest K. Emurian, Baker Book House Co., page 97) Brooks was a bachelor. His church organist and Sunday School superintendent, Lewis Redner, was also a bachelor. Brooks gave the words to him and asked him to create a tune for the upcoming Christmas celebration. Redner procrastinated and struggled with the creation of a tune to go with the 5 stanzas that Brooks had written. It wasn't until the night before the celebration that Redner got inspired in the middle of the night and created the song as we know it. The following day, a group of 36 children and 6 Sunday school teachers introduced the song created by the two bachelors. That was on December 27, 1868. It wasn't published as an official hymn of the Episcopal Church until 1892. The following January, Phillips Brooks died, never knowing the magnitude of the hymn that he created. For some reason, the 4th stanza has been dropped from the original score. "Where children, pure and happy, pray to the blessed Child, Where misery cries out to thee, Son of the mother mild; Where charity stands watching, and faith holds wide the door, The dark night wakes, the glory breaks, and Christmas comes once more." The stanza includes the line, "And faith holds wide the door." This hymn, like the story of the annunciation to Mary in the gospel of Luke, is a story about faith. Peace, Fr.

It is also an invitation for both the non-believer and the believer. For the non-believer, it is an announcement of what God has done, and for the believer, it is a challenge to increase one's faith.

Brooks was a bachelor. His church organist and Sunday School superintendent, Lewis Redner, was also a bachelor.

¡Caminado con Jesús!

En la recta final de Adviento!!!!

En la recta final de este tiempo de preparación escuchamos acerca de la visita de María a su prima Isa-bel.

Esta vista está llena de una alegría que la expresa maravillosamente él bebe de Isabel (Juan el Bautista) al saltar en el seno de su madre cuando escucho la voz de María.

Que estos días previos a la Navidad nos llene de Alegría mientras nos preparamos para recibir a Cristo en nuestro Corazón una vez más.

¡IV DOMINGO DE ADVIENTO!

La presencia del Señor hace que Juan el Bautista salte de gozo y que Isabel proclame ser indigna de tanto favor.

Esto nos recuerda la reacción de David en el Antiguo Testamento cuando el arca de la alianza fue llevada a Jerusalén.

¿Cómo va entrar en mi casa el arca del Señor? Pregunta David. Pero después vino ante el arca y saltó y danzó de gozo.

¿Por qué reaccionó David de esta manera? Fue el estar en presencia del Señor lo que hizo reaccionar así a David.

El arca de la alianza simbolizaba la presencia de Dios en medio del pueblo escogido.

Isabel y su hijo reconocieron que al llegar María están en presencia del Señor.

Así sucede también con nosotros cuando nos reunimos en su nombre como lo hacemos hoy.

La actitud humilde de María en el Evangelio al ir a visitar a su prima encinta nos trae a la mente la acción definitiva de Jesús, la cual interpreta el autor de la carta a los he-breos en nuestra segunda lectura de hoy.

Los quiero, reciban mi bendición y no se les olvide orar por mí.

Celebraciones “litúrgicas” para tener presente durante la semana:

La Iglesia nos presenta el 26 de diciembre, la memoria de “San Esteban

Fue un diácono de la Iglesia primigenia de Jerusalén y protomártir del Cristianismo. Fue acusado de blasfemia. Muere mártir por no renegar de su fe. Disfrutando de la buena sazón de mi tierra: GRACIAS a todas las personas que nos invitan a su casa a compartir el mejor platillo, la FAMILIA.

Merry Christmas Jesus brings peace to hearts and homes. Let us contemplate the great mystery of God's love in this Child who has been born to us. How easy it is to find and rediscover peace and serenity by praying before the Nativity scene, allowing ourselves to be captivated by Jesus in the manger surrounded by Mary and Joseph! Contemplating this mystery of love, the Lord will also give us new incentive to transmit it to others. May Jesus fill your homes with peace, joy and happiness. Merry Christmas to you all from the Parish Staff.

Feliz Navidad Jesús trae paz a los corazones y hogares. Contemplemos el gran misterio del amor de Dios en el niño Jesús que nació. ¡Qué fácil es encontrar y redescubrir la paz, la serenidad, rezar ante la Natividad, dejarnos cautivar por Jesús en el pesebre, rodeado de María y José! Al contemplar este misterio de amor, el Señor también nos dará nuevos impulsos para transmitirlo a los demás. Que el niño Jesús envíe paz, alegría y felicidad a sus hogares. “Felices Fiestas Navideñas.”
