Mission San Luis Rey
Parish Welcomes You
Mary Mother of GodJanuary 1, 2017
A Note from Fr.Vince
Happy New Year! It is fitting that we begin this New Year with the beautiful Feast of Mary, the Mother of
God. We reflect on one of her most outstanding characteristics: her willingness to know and to do
God’s will. In our busy lives, we often overlook the need to reflect on God’s plan for us. Let us resolve to imitate Mary who “kept all these things, reflecting on
them in her heart.” See the bulletin online at www.sanluisreyparish.org for
Fr. Vince’s complete New Year’s message.

From Today’s Gospel
The shepherds went in haste to Bethlehem and found Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger.When they saw this, they made known the message
that had been told them about this child.All who heard it were amazed by what had been told
them by the shepherds. And Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart.
Luke 2: 16-21
The Cemetery of Old Mission San Luis Rey
