A Word From Our Pastor
“PREPARE THE WAY OF THE LORD”
On the Second Sunday of Advent, a time of preparation to
commemorate the First Coming of Jesus in Bethlehem; CHRISTMAS.
This is also the time to prepare for the Second Coming of the Lord,
the Church presents to us one of the key figures of the season, John
the Baptist. John’s message to his audience then and to us today is
very clear, “PREPARE THE WAY OF THE LORD”.
We all know very well what it takes to prepare for the arrival of
a good friend or a loved one, the arrival of a newly born baby, the arrival of a celebrity in town. It requires a lot of planning and preparation.
But John the Baptist is talking about a much deeper preparation, he is
talking about preparing our HEART for the Lord. He is inviting each
and every one of us to reform our lives, to turn away from our wrongdoing, to repent and consequently to turn to the Lord to receive His
mercy, His love, His healing and pardon.
My brothers and sisters, the Season of Advent offers us a magnificent invitation to change our lives and so be constantly preparing
the way of the Lord by living a life worthy of our Christian vocation.
Blessings!
Fr. Quesnel
VOCATION PRAYER CHALICE PROGRAM
On OCTOBER 4TH 2015, our parish began a new program called the
“Vocation Chalice Program”. This program encourages families to pray regularly for vocations to priesthood and consecrated life. Each week a family will receive the Vocation Chalice at Mass and take it home with a promise to “pray for
vocations” during that week. The family will place the chalice in a prominent place in their home and will gather together each day to pray, asking
God to help raise awareness for Vocations in our parish. Prayers booklets
will be given to the family with a different prayer for each day. At the end
of the week, the family will bring the chalice back to church so the next
family could take it home. We hope that through prayer, our parish may become a
source of vocations to serve the diocese and the Church. If you are interested,
please see Father Nobert or come to the sacristy after Mass to register.
FORGIVENESS
God forgives like a mother who kisses the
offense into everlasting forgiveness.
—Henry Ward Beecher

Alokazyon dezyèm Dimanch tan Lavan an ki 2 objektif byen
klè: premyèman komemore nesans Jezu kite fèt nan Betleèm sa
gen plis ke 2 mil an, nou rele gwo evènman sa “Nwèl” e dezyèm objektif lan se prepare-n pou Jezu ki gen pou retounen menm lè nou

Legliz la prezante ba nou youn nan pèsonaj enpòtan nan sezon sa
ki se Jan Baptis. Jan Batis gen yon mesaj pou moun ki tap koute-l
yo e pou nou tou: PREPARE WOUT GRANMÈT LA.
Nou tout konnen trèbyen tout sakrifis sa mande lè nap prepare pou-n akeyi yon bon zanmi oubyen yon fanmi. Sa mande anpil
preparasyon si nou vle vizitè a santi-l konfòtab. Men Jan Baptis ap
pale-n de yon lòt preprasyon, yon preparasyon espirityèl. Jan baptis
ap mande-n pou nou chanje kè-n. Lap envite-n pou-n repanti, pou-n
vire do bay peche e an menm tan tou pou-n tounen vi-n jwen
Bondye, konsa nou va resevwa mizèrikòd Li, lanmou Li, gerizon Li,
padon Li, etc…
Frè ak sè-m yo, Legliz manman nou pandan tan Lavan sa ap
envite-n pou-n divòse ak peche, mechanste, rayisans, jalouzi,
vyolans, enjistis e deside tout bon vre pou-n menmen yon lavi ki
korèk nan je Bondye se konsa nou va prepare chemen Granmèt la.
Benediksyon,
Pè Quesnel

PERDÓN
Dios perdona como la madre que
besa la ofensa en un perdón sin fin.
—Henry Ward Beecher
VÍSTETE DE GOZO
Hoy Baruc nos habla del esplendor que se acerca para la ciudad de Jerusalén y para todos nosotros, sea donde fuere nuestro hogar. Despójate de conflictos, nos dice, y vístete de gozo. Como una vieja cobija favorita, el gozo nos queda
a la medida, y qué bien nos mantiene calientes, por muy frío 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 Isaías y que canta una canción parecida:
“Preparen el camino del Señor” pues la salvación está al llegar.
Hombre adelantado a su época, Baruc se pasó la vida alegremente esperando una gloria lejana. En este segundo Domingo de Adviento, Pablo y Juan saben que esta gloria se acerca.
