The Eucharist cannot be lived in isola on. Like all the sacraments we are called
together and we celebrate with each other. We arm each other as sons and
daughters of God celebra ng with joy who we are as a people of the Gospel. For as
scripture says, all of us are made in the image and likeness of the Creator. The

Ao Jubilar de la
Misericordia
6 de diciembre
Segundo Domingo
de Adviento
Este martes es la
Solemnidad de la Inmaculada Concepcin, y ser el da
en que el Papa Francisco abra la
Puerta Santa en la Baslica de
San Pedro, sim blicamente abriendo el Ao Jubilar de la Misericordia. En las Escritura de hoy, Baruc
confiadamente anticipa la sanacin
que Dios hace de la desesperanza
de la humanidad y Pablo ve a Dios
llevar a su cumplimiento nuestro
discernimiento, conocimiento y
amor. Desde nuestra experiencia de
vida y de nosotros podemos hacer
que esas profecas parezcan muy
optimistas aunque irremediablemente ingenuas. El Papa Francisco
nos desafa a vivir este Ao Jubilar
como un tiempo de gracia cuando
la misericordia de Dios despierte
nuestro entusiasmo para vivir nuestra llamada bautismal como personas del Evangelio, nuestra esperanza renovada y nosotros vueltos a comprometer a una caridad
desinteresada. Observen que en el
Evangelio de Lucas, Dios pasa de
largo a los lderes religiosos y polticos para en su lugar hablar en el
desierto estril con un creyente
humilde la palabra salvadora que
transformar la historia. As que la
misericordia de Dios continua realizando la salvacin de la humanidad en y por medio de instrumentos
ordinarios e imperfectos, an
nosotros mismos! Peter Scagnelli,
Padre Bill
VSTETE DE GOZO
Hoy Baruc nos habla del esplendor que se acerca para la ciudad de Jerusaln y para todos nosotros, sea donde fuere nuestro hogar. Despjate de conflictos, nos dice, y vstete de gozo.
Como una vieja cobija favorita, el gozo nos queda a la medida,
y qu bien nos man ene calientes, por muy fro que sople el
viento.
Pablo sabe de ese gozo cuando escribe su carta a los filipenses, orando para que crezcan en su habilidad de discernir lo
que es bueno y justo. Y Lucas nos habla de Juan, el que fue
anunciado por Isaas y que canta una cancin parecida:
Prepare: Preparen el camino del Seor pues la salvacin
est al llegar.
Hombre adelantado a su poca, Baruc se pas la vida alegremente esperando una gloria lejana. En este segundo Domingo
de Adviento, Pablo y Juan saben que esta gloria se acerca.

Family Advancement
Ministries needs your
help!
As the weather gets cooler, the
families we serve need warm clothes for
their young children. We would appreciate dona ons of boys
clothes, sizes 12 months to size 10; and girls clothes, size 2
through size 8. We are especially in need of pants for boys (and
girls too).
If you do not have gently used clothes to donate and
would like to help otherwise, we suggest diapers sizes 4 and 5
and pull ups. Thank you for helping those in our community who
need our assistance.
