My Very First Christmas in Heaven

I see the countless Christmas trees around the world

below

With tiny light, like Heaven’s stars, reflecting on

the snow.

The sight is so spectacular, please wipe away the

tear

For I am spending Christmas, with Jesus Christ

this year.

I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold

so dear

But the sounds of music can’t compare with the

Christmas choir up here.

I have no words to tell you, the joy their voices

bring,

For it is beyond description, to hear the angels sing.

I know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside

your heart,

But I am not so far away, we really aren’t apart.

So be happy for me, dear ones, you know I hold you

dear

And be glad I’m spending Christmas with Jesus

Christ this year.

I sent you each a special gift, from my heavenly

home above.

I sent you each a memory of my undying love.

After all, love is a gift more precious than pure

gold.

It was always most important in the stories Jesus

told.

Please love and keep each other, as my Father said

to do,

For I can’t count the blessing or love he has for each

of you.

So have a Merry Christmas and wipe away that

tear,

Remember I am spending Christmas, with Jesus

Christ this year.

FOURTH SUNDAY OF ADVENT

Stewardship of Treasure Pledge for 2018

The parish had our in-pew parish stewardship pledge drive

for the 2018 calendar year on November 18/19. If you

took your green pledge card home, please return it to the

parish office by placing it in the collection; mailing it to

the parish at PO Box 129 Moriarty, 87035; or bringing it to

the office. We sent out letters and materials to those who

were unable to fill out a pledge card at Mass.

Please be a part of our parish’s tithing effort and do your

part in building the kingdom of God and being grateful for

the blessings our Lord has bestowed on us. Remember

God cannot be outdone in generosity. God bless you and

your families. If you have questions please call Cathy at

the parish office. Note: this is not the Archdiocese Annual

Catholic Appeal, the 2018 ACA pledge drive will be in

February 2018.

All events are at OLMC hall

-- Food Pantry - second Thursday of the month – 11:00 a.m. -- Utility Assistance - every Friday (New Hours) 9:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. -- Monthly member meeting - third Sunday of the month after the 10:00 a.m. Mass

St. Vincent de Paul said that he knew “God had sent him to bring good news to the poor”. By your volunteering, you help to carry out St. Vincent de Paul’s mission. Thank you.

Begin to think about, and gather the items you will contribute to the Angel Tree this year. Remember, the items you donate are for the benefit of SVdP clients who cannot buy those items with food stamps. Please do not wrap the items, just return them to the tree or the parish office. All angel gifts should be returned by Monday, December 18th.

PLEASE PRAY THE ROSARY EVERY DAY.

December Refection

God reveals divine presence in the smile of another, in someone’s generous offer, in a plea for help, in the cry of the poor and the oppressed, in the child needing reassurance, in the aged needing a listening ear, in the sick needing a consoling hand.

Please pray for our sponsors. . . .

If you are not receiving your Sunday tithing envelopes and

would like to have them, please call the parish office.

Electronic tithing makes your Sunday contributions

secure, convenient and timely. We accept Credit and Debit card payments. For information, please call Cathy

at 832-6655.

The coming new year provides a good time to look at how

blessed we are and to ask ourselves how we can say “thank

you” to God.

We are thankful to the advertisers who sponsor this bulletin. Please support them with your business.
