We, the parish of Saints Mary and Mathias Catholic Church,
WELCOME all to CELEBRATE, TEACH and LIVE the Mission of JESUS CHRIST
Ss. Mary & Mathias Church 215 W. 8th St. Muscatine, IA 52761
From the Pastor’s Desk December 9, 2018 - 2nd Sunday of Advent When we first call to mind the word,
“Repentance,” we might associate it with the
need to “repent” of our sins. This word, used
o�en by the Lord and his first followers, means
so much more. The full and richer meaning of
repentance is a complete re-orienta!on of
one’s life, a turning away from sin, and the turning back of
one’s heart to God. Because I have invited Jesus to be at
the center of my life, my life has a completely new
purpose. I act, and speak, and live in a way that reflects
my faith and love for the Lord.
Yet, repentance is not a once and done decision.
Repentance is a life-long process that requires me to
con!nually say no to the tempta!ons of the world. By
saying no to the tempta!ons of the fallen world we live in,
my own sinful flesh, and to Satan, I can more readily say
yes to Christ, to making my heart a fi.ng dwelling place
for the Lord.
This weekend, as the second part of our Advent Message
Series, “Your Best Yes,” unfolds, we will focus on how
repentance and saying yes to God can bring us a newfound
sense of freedom as we con!nue to prepare the way for
the Lord to enter more fully into our lives.
Our Lady of Guadalupe Celebra�on:

January & February Lots of Dates Open
6 Simple Ways to Enrich Your Advent Season
BY CHRISTINA ANTUS DECEMBER 3, 2018
When I was a nominal Catholic, I liked to pretend that I knew a lot about Catholicism. Realis!cally, I knew slightly less than the average 7-year-old knows about the workings of a combus!ble steam engine. Back then, for me, Advent was the Catholic word for Christmas. I was, for a lack of a beGer term, a theological idiot.
Webster’s Dic!onary gives three meanings for the word Advent:
1. The arrival of a notable person, thing, or event. The advent of Christ. The advent of television. The advent of the day my husband will finally pick up the pair of socks that have been in the same spot on the floor for six weeks.
2. The first season of the Chris�an church year, leading up to Christmas and including the four preceding Sundays. So, all of December.
3. The coming or second coming of Christ.
If you knew this, you’re doing beGer than I was most of my life. One of the many drawbacks of being a lukewarm Catholic is blindly going through life thinking you know enough about the faith, yet really knowing very liGle, including the why and how behind most of the Church’s teachings. For a number of years, I was part of the misinforma!on problem. Advent is a trifecta of celebra!ons:
1. Celebra!ng Christ’s birth. 2. Wai!ng for Christ to return to Earth again. 3. Wai!ng for Christ to come into our hearts.
In a culture where everything is instant, we most certainly have lost the art of wai!ng. I blame Amazon because faith has no Prime shipping. We’ve lost the wonder and contempla!on needed to appreciate the beauty and mystery of Advent. How can we find Christ at Christmas if we aren’t watching and wai!ng for him? How can we appreciate the !me we have to wait when we can’t even wait two minutes for a slow Wi-Fi confec!on?
Advent gives us a chance to really put our minds where it maGers most, on the next life. Here’s how:
Quit being too busy to be spiritual
I know you have to do the thing with the thing before the thing and then you have to rush off to the other thing, and in the words of INXS, “There’s not enough !me…” If you wait for the !me, it’ll never come. So, make room. Turn off your phone. Set aside your to-do list. Light a candle. Say a prayer. Sit in the chapel.
Sacrifice all of the things
Then, subs!tute them with Jesus. Give up some part of your daily rou!ne to fit in 20-30 minutes for Christ:
• Pray on your a�ernoon run. • Dedicate a decade of the Rosary to someone you don’t know who needs prayers. No Rosary? No problem. God gave you 10 fingers. • Listen to Scripture or faith-based books/podcasts on your commute. • Grab a Bible and pick a psalm. Find a sentence and make it your daily medita!on. Apply those words to your day and try to uncover their meaning in your life.
Take your Christmas playlist to a higher level
Tradi!onal Christmas music is one of my favorite things about Thanksgiving through Epiphany. There’s a rumor going around that I even indulge in summer. Once or twice a week, or an hour before bed, listen to some spiritual songs, like a Gregorian chant or (my favorite) “Advent in Ephe-sus” by the Benedic!nes of Mary Queen of Apostles. They are prayers that feel as tradi!onal as Bing Crosby’s “White Christmas” but are spiritually upli�ing, calming, and peaceful. cont’d on pg. 3

NEEDING SOME HELP: We are looking for volunteers from our parish to join other Chris!ans for the Salva!on Army
Christmas campaign. Specific roles include organizing toys and clothes that are being donated in the days leading up to
December 17th. We also need people to serve as personal shoppers to parents on December 17-19th. Our goal is to not
only shop with them, but to pray and invite families to the Chris!an community churches in town. Please contact
Debbie Mussehl at [email protected], or Alissa Jirak at [email protected] for more informa!on.
Thank you for helping us!
CHRISTIAN EXPERIENCE WEEKEND: St. Ann’s and our Lady of the River. Women’s Retreat: January 18-20. The purpose
of the Chris!an Experience Weekend (CEW) is to strengthen and enrich your rela!onship with God. The weekend
provides a special !me and place away from the busy rou!ne of daily living, where a true Chris!an community can
develop in a variety of ways.
CEW is not a retreat consis!ng of silence and medita!on. Rather, it is a shared Chris!an experience which grows out of
the realiza!on that the Chris!an life has to be experienced before it can be fully appreciated.
Two of our Saints Mary and Mathias Parishioners are part of this CEW Weekend: Amanda McKee and Erin McKee. For
more info on the women’s weekend, please contact: Brenda Kroeger (563-349-4725)[email protected]
Faith Ac�ve & Alive
cont’d from pg.2
Give, give, give
You don’t always have to give away money. Give your !me, talent, and friendship. Be kind to an enemy. Pay someone a compliment who doesn’t deserve it—bonus points if you do it a�er they’re rude to you. Hold open a door for a stranger. Offer to help someone carry their groceries. Write inspira!onal quotes on cards that serve as compliments to people and randomly place them on car windshields. Remember that the smallest act of kindness is s!ll a huge act of love.
Have Sunday Advent dinners
If the good Lord gave you the gi� of culinary skills then by all means, give Glory to God with tradi!onal Advent meals. I was given no such skills. I am a terrible cook. Use these meal ideas to spark conversa!on and invite talk about Advent, God, prayer, and, of course, to eat. Obviously, feasts are important to Catholics, since we celebrate one every day. End these meals by ligh!ng the candle on your Advent wreath for the week.
Go to Confession
Advent is diet Lent. Cough it up, fess up, spill it out. Get into Confession because if Advent is the !me to celebrate the Second Coming, we should be ready at all !mes. No one wants to greet Jesus with a dirty soul.
I know. Gah. Bleh. Confession. Eye roll.
I get it.
No one who ever lived ever rolled their eyes at the idea of going to Confession harder than I did once upon a !me. I’d even toss in a “pffY” with the eye roll because I was a terrible person. The truth is, without Confession we really can’t allow Christ into our hearts, which is needed for deeper conversion, and that is what this is all about. That’s what it’s always been about. If you do nothing else during Advent, consider, at least, Confession.
Let’s go into Advent this year as Catholics ready and willing to serve our God. Let’s be humbled and filled with everlas!ng love for each other so we can show the world what true Chris!anity is all about. Let us find this season the path of peace and the ability to let Christ enter our hearts so that one day when he comes, we can kneel in reverence, bow our heads, and know that we served our purpose in this life: serving and loving.
You can’t find either of those on Amazon.

LA SANTA MISA DE HOY ES EN MEMORIA DE TODOS LOS DIFUNTOS
Pueblo de Sión mira que el Señor va a venir para sal-var a todas las naciones y dejará oír la majestad de su voz para alegría de tu corazón. Cfr. Is 30, 19. 30
Cuando llamamos por primera vez a la mente la palabra "arrepentimiento", podríamos asociarla con la nece-sidad de "arrepentirnos" de nuestros pecados. Esta palabra, usada a menudo por el Señor y sus primeros se-guidores, significa mucho más. El significado completo y más rico del arrepentimiento es una reorientación completa de la vida de uno, un apartamiento del pecado, y la vuelta atrás del corazón de uno a Dios. Porque he invitado a Jesús a estar en el centro de mi vida, mi vida tiene un propósito completamente nuevo. Actúo, y hablo, y vivo de una manera que refleja mi fe y amor por el Señor.
Sin embargo, el arrepentimiento no es una decisión hecha una vez. El arrepentimiento es un proceso de toda la vida que requiere que yo continuamente diga no a las tentaciones del mundo. Al decir no a las tentaciones del mundo caído en que vivimos, mi propia carne pecaminosa, y a Satanás, puedo decir más fácilmente sí a Cristo, a
hacer de mi corazón un lugar apropiado para el Señor.
Este fin de semana, como la segunda parte de nuestra serie de mensajes de Adviento, "Su Mejor Sí", se desarrolla, nos en-focaremos en cómo el arrepentimiento y el decir sí a Dios pueden traernos un nuevo sentido de libertad mientras continuamos preparando el camino para que el Señor ingrese más plenamente en nuestras vidas.
