FROM THE PASTORS DESK

Dear Parish Family,
Peace and all good! Power: the capacity of an individual or a group to exert their will over others. As a nervous college freshman, I dutifully jotted down these words at a lecture. You never know; they just might come up on a test. I didnt reflect much upon this definition at the time, but somehow its come back to memore than four decades later-- this fourth and final week of Advent. Power. These readings are all about powerGods Powerin our world and in our lives. In the first reading, Davids power, juxtaposed with the Lords Power quickly melts down into a form of silly presumptuousness. Go tell my servant David, God instructs the prophet Nathan in a dream. Thus says the Lord: Should you build me a house to dwell in? (2 Samuel: 1-5). David is a king, a big shot, revered and feared by his people. But he forgets that he enjoys his power at the behest of the Lord, who can pull the plug any old time. David understands worldly power, but has conveniently forgotten its true spiritual dimensions and origin. His offer to build a temple for the Lord is exactly as it appears: a gesture that is naively patronizing and condescending. Luckily, the Lord is generous and forgivingand has a sense of humor about His servant David. Mary, on the other hand, does not need to be reminded about who she really is. She understands the true nature of powerof Gods Powerin her life. Gods power is rooted in His Love for all of Creation and all of His creaturesit is not the exertion of force which implies violence or coercion. It is to this Loving Power that Mary offers her consent and surrenderbut not immediately. Mary is no puppet or automaton. She recognizes her God-given powerto think, to reflect, to discern for herself in the freedom of Gods Love. God has put a good, sensible head on her shoulders. Mary pausesnot to deny Gods commandbut to reflect honestly upon the enormous commitment that she has been asked to make. In this weekends Gospel from Luke (1:26-38), we are told that Mary is greatly troubled and that she pondered upon the meaning and implications of the angel Gabriels message and invitation from God to become the mother of Jesus. Mary understands clearly that Gods Power is her freedom. She is a human being; she needs to consider everything that she knows about herself, everything that she has experienced of Gods presence of her life; everything that she has been taught about God and herself by her family and tradition. And when she has completed this process (the Scriptures dont tell us how long this took!),

she gives her consent freely, openly, completely, and without reserve. She willingly concedes her power to Gods Power. And she is free. Free to be the Mother of Jesus, the Mother of God. Free to be her best and truest self, regardless of what any other person/ people should think or do or say about her. This freedom is both her choice and Gods great gift. Lets be honest: for us, in our time, this freedom to accept the transforming Power of Gods Love and Life in our lives is frankly quite overwhelming. It is much easier to sentimentalize Marys story and struggle; to tame it into a quaintly romantic fairy tale. But the intrinsic Power of Gods Living Word breaks through our flight and fright. The challenge given to Mary is one given to each of us at the Advent of Christs coming: to let go of our selfcenteredness, and our self-centered fears to allow Christ to be born in our hearts and in our world. In our surrender, Gods saving Power is made manifest. And in our surrender, we are freed and free. Blessed be God forever! God bless,

that there are many demands on your resources, and many charitable organizations asking for your gift, just remember that what you give to your church is used right here. It may be for food for the needy, education for our youth, or services to other sectors of our community, but it stays here. If there is a special need that you would like your gift to address just say so with a note and we will honor your wish. Thank you for all that you do and all that you give. Our parish is stronger and better able to cope with local needs because of your gifts.

Every year our parishioners and visitors at Christmas are very generous with a special Christmas collection. This year with Christmas falling on Sunday your parish still needs your generosity. Please be generous with your special Christmas gift while not forgetting your regular weekly contribution. Allen Hartman

YEAR END PLANNING

If you have been reading the business section of either of our local papers you have no doubt noticed that the year end tax advice columns are starting to appear. The last quarter of the year is the time to take the necessary actions to reduce that tax liability that looms just around the corner. Many folks choose charitable giving as the avenue to reduce those taxes. If this is your plan please do not forget our parish. If you need to make a mandatory IRA withdrawal this can be done directly to the church and tax can be avoided. We know

Concerned about your marriage?

LIBRARY
(OPEN: Sunday after Masses 8am-12pm/Thurs. 10am3pm. For more info., call Pat Thompson 760-433-8433) YOUR LIBRARY NEEDS YOU!
Starting January 21, 2012, the Parish Library will open Saturdays 9AM to 12 Noon. But we need 2 to 4 library stewards to do this. Shifts can be 9AM-10:30AM and 10:30-12 noon. Training will be provided. If you love books, meeting people & keeping things orderly, call Pat Thompson 760/433-8433.

The program consists of a weekend experience combined with post weekend sessions. The program provides the tools to help put your marriage in order again.

LIBRARY CATEGORY: FRANCISCANS

Most of us are aware that ours is a Franciscan parish. But if you arent clear about what that means, our library collection on the Franciscans includes many books about this religious order which makes our parish unique. G. K. Chestertons book, St. Francis of Assisi, is a biographical portrait of a very human St. Francis, born into a society moving from the medieval world toward the emerging Renaissance. He portrays the disillusioned soldier who wholeheartedly embraces a life of joyful poverty and service to others. He describes St. Francis view of a world reflecting God in all people, creatures and things. In Tales of St. Francis, Ancient Stories for Contemporary Living, Murray Bodo uses a variety of sources and legends about St. Francis to demonstrate the saints love and courage living in a materialistic world. And Marco Bartoli, in his book Saint Clare Beyond the Legend, tells the story of the enthusiastic first woman follower of St. Francis. This young founder of the Poor Clares from her cloistered monastery at San Damaino becomes the custodian of Franciscan history through her writings.

SOCIAL CONCERNS CHRISTMAS BASKET AND ANGEL TREE PROGRAMS

Please sponsor a family to receive a generous Christmas Food Basket by donating $40.00 per family for everything needed for a delicious meal. Please mark your check food baskets and place it in the collection. We are not setting a goal but will do the best we can with what we receive to see that local families are able to enjoy the peace that comes with a full stomach and the knowledge that someone truly cares. Any donations of turkeys, hams, desserts, or in-date canned goods are greatly appreciated. Donations may be brought to the Social Concerns Department in the Loretto House during normal parish business hours. FAMILIES SPONSORED TO DATE: 224 Can you help with our ANGEL TREE? Located in Serra Center and the parish chapel, these trees have Angels with the name, age and sex of a local child who needs you to be a special Santa.

If you would like us to purchase your present, we suggest a donation of $20.00 per Angel gift. If you want information on sponsoring an entire family with both food and gifts, please contact me at ext. 108. Our sincere thanks to each one of you who make this department and these projects possible. God bless you and may your holiday be filled with blessings and true peace.

Del Escritorio del Prroco

Querida Familia Parroquial,
Paz y todo bien! Poder: la capacidad de un individuo o un grupo de ejercer su voluntad sobre otros. Como un universitario nervioso de primer ao, yo anot obedientemente estas palabras en una conferencia. Tu nunca sabes; estas podran resultar en un examen. En ese momento yo no hice mucha reflexin sobre esta definicin, pero de alguna forma ha vuelto a mims de cuatro dcadas despus -esta semana cuarta y ltima de Adviento. Poder. Todas estas lecturas tratan sobre el poderel Poder de Diosen nuestro mundo y en nuestras vidas. En la primera lectura, el poder de David, en contraste al poder del Seor, es disminudo a ser una presuntuosidad absurda. Ve y habla con mi siervo David, Dios instruye al profeta Natn en un sueo. Yo, el Seor, he dicho: No sers t quien me construya un templo para que habite en l? (2 Samuel: 1-5.) David es un rey, un mandams, reverenciado y temido por su pueblo. Pero se le olvida que l disfruta de su poder por el mandato del Seor, quien puede quitarle el poder en cualquier momento. David entiende el poder mundano, pero ha olvidado convenientemente la verdadera dimensin espiritual y origen. Su oferta de construir un templo para el Seor es exactamente como parece: un gesto ingenuamente condescendiente. Afortunadamente, el Seor es generoso y clementey tiene un sentido del humor sobre su discpulo David. Mara, por otro lado, no necesita ser recordada sobre quin realmente ella es. Ella entiende la verdadera naturaleza del Poderdel Poder de Diosen su vida. El poder de Dios es una raz del Su amor por toda la creacin y por todas Sus criaturasno es un esfuerzo excesivo que implica violencia o coercin. Es a este Poder Amoroso que Mara ofrece su consentimiento y entregapero no inmediatamente. Mara no es un ttere o una autmata. Ella reconoce su poder dadopor Dios para pensar, reflexionar, para discernir por s misma en la libertad del amor de Dios. Dios ha puesto una cabeza buena y sensible en sus hombros. Mara hace una pausano para negarse al comando de Dios sino para reflejar honestamente sobre el compromiso enorme que se le ha pedido a ella hacer. En el Evangelio de este fin de semana de Lucas (1:26-38), se nos dice que Mara est muy turbada y que ella reflexion sobre el significado e implicaciones del mensaje del ngel Gabriel y la invitacin de Dios de convertirse en la madre de Jess. Mara entiende claramente que el Poder de Dios es su salvacin. Ella es un ser humano; debe considerar todo lo que ella sabe de s misma, todo lo que ella ha experimentado de la presencia de Dios en su vida;
Contina en la siguiente columna...

todo lo que a ella se le ha enseado sobre Dios y sobre ella misma por parte de su familia y de la tradicin y cuando ella haya realizado este proceso (las Escrituras no nos dicen cuanto tiempo ella se tomo!), ella da su consentimiento libremente, abiertamente, completamente y sin reservas. Ella concede de buena voluntad su poder al Poder de Dios. Y ella es libre. Libre para ser la Madre de Jess, la Madre de Dios. Libre para ser ella misma mejor y ms verdadera, sin tener en cuenta lo que cualquier otra persona/gente pudieran pensar o hacer o decir sobre ella. Esta libertad es su decisin y tambin el gran regalo de Dios. Seamos honestos: para nosotros, en nuestro tiempo, esta libertad de aceptar el Poder de la transformacin del Amor y Poder de Dios en nuestras vidas es francamente bastante abrumador. Es mucho ms fcil ponerse sentimental de la historia y lucha de Mara; a tomarla en un cuento de hadas pintoresco y romntico. Pero el Poder intrnseco de la Palabra Viviente de Dios penetra nuestro vuelo y nuestro temor. El reto dado a Mara es uno que se nos da a cada uno de nosotros en el Adviento de la Venida de Cristo: dejar ir de nuestro ego-centrismo, y nuestros auto-temores centrados para permitir a Cristo nacer en nuestros corazones y en nuestro mundo. En nuestra entrega, el Poder de la salvacin de Dios se manifiesta. Y en nuestra entrega, nosotros somos liberados y libres. Bendito sea Dios por siempre! Dios los bendiga, Padre Chuck

Ao de Planificacin Final
Si tu has estado leyendo la seccin de negocios en cualquiera de nuestros peridicos locales sin duda te has dado cuenta que las columnas de asesoramiento de la planificacin de impuestos del fin de ao ya comienzan a aparecer. El ltimo trimestre del ao es el momento necesario para tomar una accin para reducir la responsabilidad de los impuestos que est a la vuelta de la esquina. Muchas personas escogen dar donaciones caritativas para reducir sus impuestos. Si este es tu plan, por favor no te olvides de nuestra parroquia. Si tu necesitas hacer un retiro obligatorio de tu IRA este puede hacerse directamente a la iglesia y evitar el impuesto. Sabemos que hay muchas demandas de tus recursos, y muchas organizaciones caritativas pidiendo tu regalo, solo recuerda que lo que tu das a la iglesia se utiliza aqu mismo. Puede ser para alimentar al menos privilegiado, educacin para los jvenes, o servicios para otros sectores de nuestra comunidad, pero se queda aqu. Si hay una necesidad especial que tu desearas que tu regalo sea utilizado solo djanoslo saber con una nota y nosotros honraremos tu deseo. Gracias por todo lo que haces y por todo lo que nos das. Nuestra parroquia es ms fuerte y enfrenta mejor las necesidades locales por tus regalos.
Allen Hartman, Gerente de Negocios

NOTA CATEQUETICAS
PREGUNTAS DEL MISAL ROMANO
Se han estado haciendo muchas preguntas ahora, que estamos celebrando la Misa con la traduccin nueva del Misal Romano. Cada otra semana una de las preguntas ser dirigida (ojal!) PREGUNTA #1 En la consagracin ahora estamos usando la palabra cliz en vez de copa como lo hacamos antes. Por qu? RESPUESTA Hay dos palabras en latn para tomar del recipiente: poculum es el trmino genrico para cualquier tipo de recipiente de bebida y usualmente es traducido como copa. La palabra calix en latn significa cliz sin embargo es usada ms exclusivamente para un recipiente de comunin, destinado a ser compartido con otros bebedores.* En la traduccin de la Biblia en latn, la vulgata por San Gernimo, la palabra griega proterion en las palabras de la consagracin se traduce como calix, como una dimensin comunal presente. Similarmente, los textos del Misal, siempre han usado calix (cliz) en vez de poculum (copa) en las palabras de constitucin y consagracin. Esta decisin es reforzada por la practica de ciertos protestantes y reformadores en intencionalmente remover la palabra cliz de su traduccin debido a una conexin percibida entre la palabra cliz, y la naturaleza sacrificial de la Misa. *La importancia de la dimensin comunal del cliz es evidente por la retraccin rpida por la Dicesis Phoenix en declaraciones por su Oficina de Liturgia sobre posibles restricciones de a recepcin de la comunin bajo las dos especies. En los Estados Unidos, la comunin siendo recibida bajo las dos especies es la norma y de ser celebrada como tal. Bill Bischoff, Director de Catequesis

LECTURAS DE HOY
Primera lectura El Seor promete a David que su casa permanecer para siempre (2 Samuel 7:1-5, 8b-12, 14a, 16). Salmo Cantar eternamente las misericordias del Seor (Salmo 89 [88]). Segunda lectura Pablo ora para que Dios sea glorificado mediante Jesucristo (Romanos 16:25-27). Evangelio El ngel Gabriel anuncia a Mara que ella concebir al hijo de Dios (Lucas 1:26-38).
