SAINT MARY PARISH
My brothers and sisters in Christ,
On behalf of the priests and staff at St. Mary’s I want to wish you all a Merry Christmas! Feliz Navidad! Christmas Eye Mirembe! I
pray that the God of Mercy be with you and your families throughout the Christmas Season and this year of Mercy. Jesus is Mercy….
and Jesus came to us in Bethlehem to show us mercy even when he and his parents were denied mercy when they arrived. May Saint
Mary’s become Bethlehem where we learn to perform the spiritual and corporal works of mercy. May we become givers and receivers
of mercy this year… to one another and especially to the poor. Bethlehem is the place where through Mary and Joseph, humanity was
able to return the favor of mercy to God… with some of the corporal works of mercy… for the Christ Child was fed and given drink,
clothed and welcomed by his parents. May the God of light and mercy fill your hearts with the joy that makes us merciful…. For he is
Emmanuel – God with us. Merry Christmas.
– Father Michael

SAINT CHARLES PARISH
My brothers and sisters in Christ,
On behalf of the priests and staff of St. Charles, I want to extend great blessings upon you and your family throughout the Christmas
Season. Christmas is the season of Peace. It is a time of Joy. Let us also remember that it is the announcement of Mercy, for Jesus
Christ is Mercy. God the Father in his mercy sent his Son out of mercy for us. The Holy Father has called for the Church to celebrate
Mercy throughout the year. Jesus came to us out of mercy… let us ask him to remain with us all year by performing the corporal and
spiritual works of mercy; by feeding the hungry and giving drink to the thirsty, clothing the naked and welcoming the stranger, visiting
the sick and the imprisoned and burying the dead, teaching the ignorant, counseling the doubtful, admonishing sinners, bearing wrongs
patiently, forgiving offenses willingly, comforting the afflicted and praying for the living and the dead.

UPDATE ON WEDDING AT CANA II
We are postponing the wedding of Cana until the Fall. If there

hours of planning and worrying, please contact one of the priests.
This past year, seven couples were married on this night. We
want to help you and others celebrate your wedding with
simplicity and grace without stressing you out both before the
big day and after the credit cards bills arrive.
On Thursday, December 31, St. Charles’ and St. Mary’s daily
Masses will still be celebrated at their usual times.

Fiesta de la Sagrada Familia de Jesús, Maria, y José
27 de Diciembre de 2015
SAINT CHARLES PARISH
SAINT MARY PARISH
Queridos hermanos en Cristo:
En éstos últimos días del año, hemos visto el entusiasmo de
muchos fieles en las celebraciones de diciembre, el día de la
Inmaculada Concepción, la de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, las
Posadas en los hogares de familias que generosamente han
abierto sus puertas a la comunidad para la Novena de Navidad,
en el Nacimiento Viviente en San Carlos y en las Misas de
Navidad en Santa María y San Carlos Borromeo.
Es Cristo el que nos motiva, es el entusiasmo por su venida y
por la espera. No todas las personas han tenido una Feliz
Navidad, por la separación, unos miembros de la familia aquí y
otros en diferentes países, otros por desempleo, otros por
enfermedad y muchas otras cosas que nos hacen sufrir. Es el
ejemplo de Cristo y la Sagrada familia los modelos a seguir.
También en la Primera Navidad hubo sufrimiento, María y José
rechazados en Belén, el niño nace en una cueva, Herodes quiere
matarlo y asesina a inocentes, sus padres deben emigrar a Egipto.
María y José pasan “fríos y calores”, pero tienen a Jesús con
ellos y eso es lo que da esperanza a Cristiano, que a pesar de mil
dificultades y sufrimientos, tenemos a Jesús que nos da fuerza y
esperanza para un día llegar al Paraíso donde enjugará las
lágrimas de los que lloran, el lugar de Paz, Luz y Felicidad
eterna. Con esto en mente preparémonos a recibir el 2016 con Fé
y Esperanza en Jesús que es la fuente de nuestra Alegría.
– P. Agustín
