SAINT JUNIPERO SERRA PARISH—Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe, NOV. 22, 2015
Long live Christ the King! Today we celebrate the
completion of our Lord’s earthly mission and his being
seated at the Father’s right hand in glory, as we affirm in
the Creed. Remember, by baptism you are priest, prophet
and king; the kingly function is one of service more than
power!
Happy Thanksgiving Day coming up on Thursday!
This civil holiday does help us focus on the positive in our
lives—or at least on how we have managed to make lemonade out of any lemons thrown our way. A healthy way
to face challenges is to see them as opportunities rather
than as obstacles. Prayer, including asking for the maternal protection of the Blessed Mother, is most helpful in
seeing things positively. The sacraments, especially Confession and Holy Communion, are also great sources of
strength and comfort. Never stay away from them unnecessarily!
The daily Mass in our church on Thanksgiving Day
will be at 9:00 AM. The church will be opened about
8:00 AM and closed about 30 minutes after Mass ends.
The Eucharist is thanksgiving par excellence! Please
make plan to join your fellow pilgrims for the Mass on
this joyous day.
An Eagle Scout project at our parish included an information booth in the corner of the vestibule by the ministry room. It has until now been very poorly utilized. I’d
like to change that; to do so we need:
 Volunteers at all of the Masses—the Knights have
been helping with this a bit
 Some folks who would like to be a sort of “Welcome
Wagon” for visitors and new parishioners; eventually
with the emergence of a leader for the group
 Feedback from you folks on what would have been
nice to have received at the information booth when
you first started worshipping at St. Serra Parish
 Brainstorming on possible “handouts” or reading materials that would be helpful for people
Contact me, email is best, to help get this launched. My
email is [email protected]
Mary Oga, the Forward in Faith, Fulfilling our Mission
secretary, is normally in her office on Monday and Friday
should you like to make a pledge, extend or increase your
pledge, give a one-time donation, ask about how to get
matching funds from your employer, or the best way to
transfer ownership of stocks and other assets. Phone
number 943-9314, extension 105. If you miss her, Mary
Centeno at extension 107 can also help you.
Next Sunday we begin a brand new Church year with
the first Sunday of Advent. Try to use the Advent season
as a time to prepare for the coming of Christ into your
heart. Not every Christmas party needs to fit in before
the actual day—it’s Christmas until the Baptism of the
Lord, January 10th this year! Our American practice, fueled by the merchants, is to anticipate holidays and then
drop them the next day. The liturgical calendar prepares
for feasts and then celebrates them for an even longer period afterwards.

Resources for Entering Advent Well
The “Praying Advent” website offers many helpful
resources for individuals and families who want
some help to begin the season of Advent and move
through it well. There are a great variety of pages
which will address the issues almost anyone is facing. In common sense language the site helps us
pray through Advent as we may never have done
before. In addition, there is a Daily Prayer for each
day of Advent, based upon the Collects of the New
Roman Missal. Just Google “Praying Advent” to
find the site on the Creighton U. Online Ministries
web site.
Confirmation●Next Large Group Gathering:
January 10th from 1:30-3:30 in the parish hall for
candidates, ending with Mass at 3:30 for candidates
and their families; in fact all are welcome to join the
Mass.
Attendance at the whole group confirmation meetings is an integral part of the formation process for
confirmation.
●Year 2 Retreat: The date for this retreat is now
March 19th —note the change from February 20th.
●Confirmation 2016: The date is April 2nd at 10:30
a.m. with Bishop Brennan. Year 2 candidates and
parents, be sure to mark your calendars and notify
your sponsors!
●Registration: 2015-2016 registration is officially
CLOSED and no further registrations will be accepted. Early-bird registration for 2016-2017 will
take place this coming March. Be sure to watch the
bulletin for dates and times!
Life Teen (grades 9-12) ●This Sunday’s Life Night
– Movie Night! Entertaining Angels: The Dorothy
Day Story – Dorothy Day lives hard, makes mistakes, and endures the consequences. But the unquenchable fire burning within her cannot be contained, and during the Depression, she vows to house
the homeless, feed the hungry, and tend the sick –
despite only having 97 cents. Yet Dorothy persists,
walking on frequently stormy waters of faith. Because the movie run time is 112 minutes, this Life
Night will be from 6:00-7:50 p.m.
Edge (grades 6-8) ●Our next Edge night is
Wednesday, December 2nd – “Praying, Waiting,
Anticipating!” Advent is a time of prayer and anticipation, not only for the celebration of Jesus’s
coming at Christmas, but also for the Second Coming of Christ at the end of time. Come learn all
about the symbolism behind the colors and decorations used during this time and how they point us to
these events! Edge Night is from 6-7:30 in the parish hall.

The nationwide release of the movie “Spotlight”
was Friday. It is supposed to be well done as far as
such documentaries go. Please remember, however,
that much has indeed changed since then. Admittedly, some cases still get reported, but we do an
awful lot now to train and to screen volunteers and
clergy than before. Pray for the healing of all victims and perpetrators. This is a historical sin for
which we are still atoning, but we are moving forward. —Fr. Leo

Evangelization is the duty of all the baptized—
bring someone with you to Sunday Mass or to a social event at the parish. The seasons of Advent and
Christmas are full of great opportunities to bring
someone to our church!
Prayer to Stop Assisted Suicide:
O God, source of all life and hope, look kindly on
our brothers and sisters facing the end of their
lives, fill them with the hope of your mercy and
give them peace and comfort. We pray for all Californians, inspire them to protect the lives of the
elderly, the infirm and the disabled. Renew our
commitment to building a community where every
human life is welcomed and wanted, valued and
defended—from conception to natural death. We
ask this through the intercession of Saint John
Paul II. Amen.
Why Oppose Assisted Suicide?
 Sends the Wrong Message: Legalizing suicide for the termi-
nally ill, while discouraging it for the rest of the population,
teaches that the lives of the ill and disabled do not matter to
our society.
 Will Worsen Patient Care: Patients in other states, like Barbara Wagner in Oregon, are being denied treatment prescribed by their doctors, and instead offered drugs for assisted suicide.
 Will Increase Non-Terminal Suicide Rates: Suicides skyrocket when is legalized. Oregon's suicide rate for nonterminal people increased 49% after assisted suicide be-

¡Viva Cristo Rey! Hoy celebramos la finalización de la misión terrenal de
nuestro Señor y de su estar sentado a la derecha del Padre en gloria, como
afirmamos en el Credo. Recuerde, por el bautismo usted es sacerdote, profeta y rey; la función real es uno de los servicios más poderosos!
Feliz Día de Acción de Gracias viene el jueves! Esta fiesta civil nos ayuda
a centrarnos en lo positivo en nuestras vidas, o al menos en la forma en
que hemos logrado hacer limonada de los limones lanzados nuestro
camino. Una forma saludable de enfrentar desafíos es verlos como oportunidades y no como obstáculos. La oración, incluyendo pidiendo la protección maternal de la Virgen María, es más útil para ver las cosas positivamente. Los sacramentos, especialmente la confesión y la Santa Comunión,
también son una gran fuente de fortaleza y consuelo. ¡Nunca mantenga
alejado de ellos innecesariamente!
La misa diaria en nuestra iglesia en el Día de Acción de Gracias será a
las 9:00 AM. La iglesia se abrió alrededor de las 8:00 de la mañana y cierra
a unos 30 minutos después de que termine la misa. La Eucaristía es acción
de gracias por excelencia! Por favor haga plan para unirse a sus compañeros peregrinos para la misa de este día de júbilo.
Un proyecto de Eagle Scout en nuestra parroquia incluye un puesto de
información en la esquina del vestíbulo de la sala de ministerio. Ha sido
hasta ahora muy mal utilizado. Me gustaría cambiar eso; para ello necesitamos:
Los voluntarios en todas las Misas, los Caballeros han estado ayudando
con esto un poco
Algunas personas que les gustaría ser una especie de "Bienvenida" para
los visitantes y nuevos feligreses; finalmente, con la aparición de un
líder para el grupo
La retroalimentación de ustedes, la gente en lo que habría sido agradable haber recibido en la caseta de información cuando empezaste
adorar a La Parroquia de San Serra
Lluvia de ideas sobre posibles "dádivas" o materiales de lectura que
sería de gran ayuda para las personas

El próximo domingo comenzamos un año nuevo de la Iglesia con el
primer domingo de Adviento. Trate de usar el Adviento como un tiempo
para prepararse para la venida de Cristo en su corazón. No tienes que
asistir a todas las fiestas de Navidad antes del día actual de NavidadNavidad es hasta el Bautismo del Señor, el 10 de enero de este año! Nuestra
práctica estadounidense, impulsado por los comerciantes, es anticipar las
vacaciones y luego caer al día siguiente. El calendario litúrgico se prepara
para las fiestas y luego les celebra por un período aún más largo después.
