Advent Compline Jesus Christ, King of the Universe READINGS FOR THE WEEK /LECTURAS DE LA SEMANA Monday /Lunes Tuesday/Martes Wednesday / Miercoles Thursday / Jueves Friday / Viernes Saturday/ Sabado Sunday / Domingo Dn 1:1-6, 8-20; Lk 21:1-4 Dn 2:31-45; Lk 21:5-11 Dn 5:1-28; Dn 3:62-67; Lk 21:12-19 Dn 6:12-28; Lk 21:20-28 Dn 7:2-14; Lk 21:29-33 Dn 7:15-27; Lk 21:34-36 Jer 33:14-16; 1 Thes 3:12-4:2; Lk 21:25-36 True Stewardship The gospel message proclaimed throughout the New Testament invites us to live in harmony with the world. This is a challenge to care for the world and be stewards of all that God has given us. Like generations before us, we are entrusted with the care of the earth so that generations to follow may enjoy the same gifts. Sometimes, however, we are absorbed into the ways of the world. When we are of the world, we rely heavily on the power of wealth, beauty, fame, and accumulation of material possessions. We want earthly possessions and carelessly turn our hearts from the responsibilities of stewardship and conservation. The readings today challenge us to walk away from the world so that we might inherit our share of God’s kingdom. How we live our lives directly reflects our love for God. One of the beautiful traditions of our Church is chanted night prayer. For the 4 Sundays in Advent (Nov. 29, Dec. 6, 13, and 20) we will gather at 8:00pm for Eucharistic Exposition, brief Advent reflection, chanted night prayer and Benediction. It should take around 1/2 hour. All are welcome. Christmas Concert Save the Date - we are planning our Christmas Concert for Sunday, December 20th, at 2:00pm Treasures From Our Tradition Thanksgiving Our Thanksgiving Day Mass will be Thursday, November 26, at 10:00 am. The Mass will be bi-lingual. Sunday Fellowship Each Sunday we have Fellowship in Komora Hall following the 10:00 am Mass and the 12:00 pm Mass. There is always delicious food and drink. All are welcome. A special thanks to all who work hard every Sunday to put this fellowship together. Pilgrimage to Jerusalem Once again, Saint Joseph of the Holy Family is sponsoring a trip to Israel with Peter’s Way Tours, to walk “In the Footsteps of Jesus” The 10-day pilgrimage will take place from June 29, 2016 to July 8, 2016 and the total cost will be approximately $3,500.00 including airfare, hotel accommodations, breakfast and dinner every day, charter bus transportation, entrance fees to all sites, and a full-time Tour Manager to make sure you are properly guided on your journey. Please stop by the rectory to pick up an itinerary and application. For good reason, Americans have been ambivalent about “kings” for many years, even long before George III’s troops were sent packing in 1776. To say Christ is our King is to make a statement not about our politics, but about the dignity of our own identity. At our baptism, the crown of our head was once slathered (or at last dabbed) with oil while the Church prayed “as Christ was anointed priest, prophet and king, so may you live always as his body.” To celebrate Christ’s kingship, then, is to claim our own identity. Your head was anointed just as Samuel poured oil over David’s head. David had his gifts, but he was no prize, and perhaps that might comfort you as you think about your call, out of the messiness of your own life, to stretch into a lifestyle that is marked by worship, by prophetic speech and deeds, and the kingly ability to fashion a world (or at least a patch of it) where relationships are marked by justice, mercy, and cultivation of the good. It is precisely because of this kingly role that our faith community has something to say about the environment, about the dignity of human life, just wages, access to health care and education, the building of peace, and avoidance of war. In a few weeks’ time we will hymn the coming of the “newborn king,” but today we sketch out the meaning of his reign, and our own incorporation into his work for the life of the world.

Tenemos el reto de cuidar el mundo y sentirnos corresponsables de todo lo que Dios nos ha dado. Al igual que generaciones anteriores, se nos ha confiado el cuidado de la tierra para que las generaciones que nos sigan puedan disfrutar los mismos dones. Algunas veces, sin embargo, nos quedamos absortos en las cosas del mundo. Cuando somos del mundo, confiamos demasiado en el poder de la riqueza, la belleza, la fama y la acumulación de posesiones materiales. Deseamos las posesiones terrenas y con desdén alejamos nuestro corazón de las responsabilidades de nuestro deber de cuidar el planeta y preservarla. Las lecturas de hoy nos retan a alejarnos del mundo para que podamos heredar nuestra parte del Reino de Dios. Cómo vivimos nuestra vida refleja nuestro amor por Dios. 6:00pm Cursillistas (Koenig) † Mass Intentions – November 21 - 28, 2015 † Intenciones de Misa 21 - 28 de noviembre 2015 Saturday/Sábado 5:30pm Robert Grant Sunday/Domingo 8:30am Maria Ogaldez † 10:00am Marcolina Zambrano † Fr.

Tradiciones De Nuestra Fe A lo largo de los años, latinoamérica ha producido bellísimas imágenes de Cristo crucificado, una de ellas es el Señor de los Milagros (Perú). Normalmente estas imágenes llevan en la parte superior el acrónimo INRI. Estas iniciales son una abreviación de las palabras en latín: Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum que en español significan Jesús de Nazaret, rey de los judíos (Mateo 27:37; Marcos 15:26; Lucas 23:38 y Juan 19:19). Con estas palabras, y sin quererlo, Pilato da a conocer al mundo la identidad de Jesús, mientras que él piensa que sólo está haciendo referencia a la causa de su muerte. El delito político de Jesús fue hacerse pasar por un rey y ésto, al Imperio Romano no le convenía. En realidad, el hecho de que Jesús es rey, no le conviene a ningún gobierno humano. El rey es el líder absoluto, al cual se le debe entrega incondicional. Para los cristianos que habitamos en todas las naciones de la tierra, el hecho de que proclamemos que Jesús es nuestro rey, puede traernos serias dificultades. Los gobiernos humanos no siempre actúan conforme al Evangelio y por tal motivo, al cristiano que reconoce a Jesús como rey, le corresponde desafiar tales gobiernos. El reinado de Cristo no es de este mundo, pero juzga y cuestiona este mundo. Al cristiano le toca gritar, con su vida y con su palabra: ¡Viva Cristo Rey! The Gloria Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to people of good will. We praise you, we bless you, we adore you, we glorify you, we give you thanks for your great glory, Lord God, heavenly King, O God, almighty Father. Lord Jesus Christ, Only Begotten Son, Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father, you take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us; you take away the sins of the world, receive our prayer; you are seated at the right hand of the Father, have mercy on us. For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord, you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father. Amen. The Penitential Act I confess to almighty God and to you, my brothers and sisters, that I have greatly sinned, in my thoughts and in my words, in what I have done and in what I have failed to do, through my fault, through my fault, through my most grievous fault; therefore I ask blessed Mary ever-Virgin, all the Angels and Saints, and you, my brothers and sisters, to pray for me to the Lord our God. The Nicene Creed I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible. I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, (all bow during the next two lines) and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets. I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.
