Dear Mary Star of the Sea Parishioners: Rejoice, we are almost there. Today we celebrate Gaudete Sunday, below is a abbreviated article by Jimmy Akin on the meaning of this special Sunday in Advent, I hope you enjoy it. Have a Blessed Week. Fr. Harrigan Pastor
Gaudete Sunday: 11 things to know and share . . . 1) Why is the third Sunday of Advent known as Gaudete Sunday? Its name is taken from the entrance antiphon of the Mass, which is: Rejoice in the Lord always; again I say, rejoice. Indeed, the Lord is near. This is a quotation from Philippians 4:4-5, and in Latin, the first word of the antiphon is gaudete (Latin, “rejoice”; it's also pronounced with three syllables: gau-de-te) 2) What significance does this have? Advent is the season of preparing for the arrival of the Lord Jesus (both his first coming and his second coming), and by the third Sunday of Advent, we are most of the way through the season. Thus it is appropriate to rejoice as we see the goal of the season approaching: “The Lord is near.” 3) What is the appropriate liturgical color for this day? According to the rubrics: In this mass the color violet or rose is used. 4) What does the first reading say? It opens with a prophecy that the desert region will rejoice and sing and bloom with abundant flowers. The reason is: “They will see the glory of the Lord, the splendor of our God.” It then contains an exhortation to strength and courage, and explains the reason why: Here is your God, he comes with vindication; with divine recompense he comes to save you. It then contains the significant statement: Then will the eyes of the blind be opened, the ears of the deaf be cleared; then will the lame leap like a stag, then the tongue of the mute will sing. And it concludes: Those whom the LORD has ransomed will return and enter Zion singing, crowned with everlasting joy; they will meet with joy and gladness, sorrow and mourning will flee. 5) What does this mean? This prophecy uses nature imagery to convey the sense of joy that the Jewish people would experience upon their return from exile. It depicts God’s coming with vindication to save his people after their exile, and it depicts urges patience until it arrives. It portrays God working miracles among his people, such as healing the blind, the deaf, the lame, and the mute. Taken up into the Christological realm, this passage points to the joy of those God redeems through Jesus from their sins and the deliverance and spiritual homeland that he provides. And it contains elements that point forward to the ultimate consummation that will occur with his second advent, when “death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning nor crying nor pain any more, for the former things have passed away” (Rev. 21:4). 6) What does the responsorial Psalm say? It contains a series of praises of God, stressing the good things that he does: He keeps faith forever, secures justice for the oppressed, gives food to the hungry, sets captives free, etc. 7) What does this mean? The Psalm gives voice to the worship of God’s faithful on behalf of his wondrous deeds, including miracles, such as the restoration of sight to blind people. On a Christological level, it also points to the eternal reign of the Son, which has been inaugurated with the first coming and which will be consummated at the second coming. 8) What does the second reading say? It contains an exhortation to be patient until the coming of the Lord. Paul reminds us to test everything and hold to the truth of Christ and His Church. 9) What does this mean? The prophets, likewise, had to endure hardship and patience, particularly because their prophetic mission caused opposition—just as the Christian message did (and does). Ultimately, God will reward our faith and patience, but we must be prepared to wait and to endure hardship. 10) What does the Gospel reading say? John the Baptist, humbles himself and professes the True Christ, the Messiah Jesus Our Lord. Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of you; he will prepare your way before you. 11) What does this mean? The Jewish people in Jesus’ day had certain ideas about what the Messiah would be like and what he would do. It was common to envision him as an earthly king who would deliver Israel from the dominion of the hated Romans by violent revolution. John the Baptist may have shared some of this expectation, for even though he had received a revelation pointing to Jesus as the Lamb of God (John 1:30-34). Rather than lose faith or let his doubts eat away at him, John decided to confront the issue directly, and so he sent his disciples to ask Jesus if his understanding of Jesus’ Messiaship was correct. Jesus indicated that it was, pointing to the fact that he had been fulfilling the predicted miracles and the preaching of the good news proper to the Messianic age. Every Christian—man, woman, and child—is more blessed than John because we didn’t just get to herald him. We get to live in the age he inaugurated, to share in its many blessings, and to be part of his mystical Body.

Mary Star High School Recognized Nationally
Mary Star of the Sea High School was recognized as a Catholic Education Honor Roll School. The national Honor Roll program is directed by the Cardinal Newman Society and has recognized only 6 high-performing Catholic high schools
nationwide in 2017.
Mary Star engaged in a thorough internal and external review of its comprehensive program offerings before being awarded this status. It has received specific recognition for its strong integration of Catholic identity throughout its efforts, including the integrity of its mission, and the strength of its community and rich spiritual life. The Honor Roll also recognized the school’s efforts at integral formation of the minds, bodies, and spirits of its students as well as its comprehensive academic program which seeks to instill a Christian vision of the world and human wisdom and culture.
“The Honor Roll is a helpful tool for families and benefactors in recognizing the quality of a Catholic high school,” said Patrick J. Reilly, president of The Cardinal Newman Society. “It is external validation that a school is both focused and successful in meeting the high calling of Catholic schools to serve the well-being and salvation of students and to serve the common good.”
Dr. Denise Donohue, coordinator of the Honor Roll, stated, “We are very pleased to have Mary Star High School join in the nationally recognized ranks of excellence; this is a select group. The school has well demonstrated they are successful in meeting the key principles that guide Catholic education.”
Mary Star’s Principal Ms. Rita Dever remarked, “It is great affirmation for Mary Star High School to be recognized by the Catholic Education Honor Roll. This distinction confirms our commitment to the mission of Catholic education. I applaud the leadership, administration, students, parents, teachers, and staff for their hard work in assuring a strong Catholic identity permeates all that we do in preparing our students to be future leaders in both society and the Church.” More information on Mary Star High School is available at www.marystarhigh.com.

FFFAITHAITHAITH FFFORMATIONORMATIONORMATION
Today we are invited to REJOICE because the Lord is near. In the Gospel John the Baptist calls us "to make straight the way of the Lord." To remain
focused while waiting on the coming of the Lord is increasingly difficult in the midst of this heavily commercialized season. There are many simple ways that we can express JOY to ourselves and to others. Pope Francis has given the world his papal smile, an expression of his interior JOY and faith.
We can do the same. As we are shopping in the aisles or waiting in line for checkout we can become aware of the people around us and take a moment to pray for them and smile. As we are decorating our home we can become aware that we are doing so in order to bring JOY to our family and others. As we are baking and preparing food we can anticipate the JOY our efforts will give to family and others. Let us take moments of prayer asking Jesus and Mary to fill us with JOY.
Jesus awaits us in the ordinary events of our day.
Adult Confirmation: Classes for Adult Confirmation will begin in January. Now is the time to register.
Recycling: Thank you to all who help us to recycle so that we can purchase resources for the children.
