December 25, 2016 PARISH COLLABORATIVE INFORMATION

Dear Friends,

Gloria in excelsis Deo! Chistmas is here and songs of joy and praise resound. God so loved that world that he sent His own beloved Son to bring us the fullness of redemption. Lights burn bright and candles glimmer as we celebrate the dawn of our salvation. The birth of Jesus Christ changed everything. To a world steeped in darkness, a Light was given. We are now children of that Light. Our celebration of the Savior’s birthday renews our commit-ment to reflect the Light of Christ in the world today.

Enlightened by Christ, parishioners of our three wonderful parishes – St. Mary Star of the Sea, St. Margaret of Scotland, St. John the Evangelist – continue to share the flame of your faith in many and varied ways. Our Litur-gies are enhanced by the many wonderful cantors, choir members and musicians who share their love of Sacred Music with us. Ministers of the Word and Eucharist, Servers, and Ushers graciously give of their time and talent to assist at Masses throughout the week. How great it is to see the tremendous outpouring of help for needy families with our three parishes “Giving Trees” and our St. Vincent de Paul Societies. The concern and compassionate care for the less fortunate has also been clearly evident in on-going food donations, drives, and so many other outreach efforts in our community.

The Christian witness of so many of you who volunteer to help is incredible. Thank you to the Knights of Co-lumbus members who are always willing to assist with what needs to get done! Thank you to our ministers who visit the sick at home and in the hospital. Thank you to our parish sacristans, our catechists, young adult group and youth group coordinators and members. I am so grateful for those who assist with our various parish programs and activities – facilitating prayer groups, RCIA, Pax Christi, Bible studies, hospitality, Children’s Liturgy of the Word, etc. I cannot begin to express my gratitude to The Saints Academy families who provided leadership and worked tire-lessly to bring about our September unified opening.

At Christmas and throughout the year, our Beverly Catholic Parishes have a common mission in the work of evangelization – to share our faith, hope and love in Jesus Christ. Thank you for all that you do to support the Church and build up the Body of Christ.

Merry Christmas,

Fr. Mark

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ:

Each Christmas we gather to celebrate the nativity of our Lord, Jesus, and share in the peace He brings. We are greatly blessed that those who worship here throughout the year and those who have been away for a while all come together for this great celebration. You are always welcome and we look forward to seeing you often.

At this time of year, in a particular way we remember, with gratitude, our retired priests. They have served our Archdiocese well over the course of many years and we are blessed by the continued service of our senior priests who bring their faith, wisdom and experience to parishes and other ministries. There are currently more than 250 retired priests in the Archdiocese of Boston and $10 Mil-lion is required each year to meet their needs. The col-lection at all Christmas Masses goes directly to provide for the care for our senior priests.

Please know of my gratitude for your generosity and your faith, and be assured of my prayers for you and all whom you hold dear.

Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Sincerely yours in Christ,

Cardinal Sean P. O’Malley

Sponsored by Beverly Pax Christi A Bed for Every Child

A Bed for Every Child is an initiative of the Massachusetts Coalition for the Homeless. Its mission is to buy twin beds for the one in seven children living in poverty in Massachusetts who do not have a bed to enjoy a good night’s sleep, an essential ingredient for a healthy well-being. A Bed for Every Child has given away over 3,500 beds. As the needs grow, the organization finds new ways to inspire people to give to this worthwhile cause.

Please help a Bed for Every Child raise the critical funds needed to provide 250 Beds for 250 Kids by Christmas.

Each bed costs $250 and includes a new mattress, box spring and bed frame. For each bed it would also be helpful to have a bed bundle: new twin size linens, 2 pillows, blan-ket, and comforter.www.abedforeverychild.org
