The bedridden or chronically ill can be placed on the “Eucharistic Ministers” visitation schedule.

CHRISTMAS 2016 Dear Parishioners,
Christmas is a special time for us - a time to recognize the love and goodness of God; a time to know that Christ
has come among us; a time to remember that God now shares the same joys and sorrows that we do; a time to
rejoice in the hope of eternal life that Jesus brings to each of us.
The celebration of Christmas is a special time to recognize the love and goodness of the Lord. He comes among
us; He shares our human condition; He gives himself to us without reserve. May this Christmas season find you
abounding in love, rejoicing in hope, and secure in God's peace.
We welcome all of you, those who celebrate with us daily and weekly, and those who have been away for a while.
We invite each of you to celebrate with us, and we ask that you please bring a friend to celebrate with us as well.
Thank you for all the kindness, support, encouragement and generosity you have shown during the year. May the
newborn Christ child bless you, your families and your homes. We wish you a Merry Christmas and a prosperous
New Year.
Father George Oonnoonny
Fr. Mathew Cherian

THE NATIVITY OF THE LORD
First Reading: Isaiah 52:7-10 Isaiah rejoices that God is bringing his exiled people home to Jerusalem. He calls out to the people to be glad because God will restore Jerusalem. Second Reading: Hebrews 1:1-6 Paul explains to the Hebrews that although God had spoken through the prophets, people could not always completely understand the message. Now God has spoken to us by sending Jesus, the son, a reflection of God’s glory and forgiver of our sins. Gospel: John 1:1-18 John describes how the Word came into the world in the form of Jesus. All those who accept Jesus become children of God by sharing in Jesus’ love. No one has seen God, but through Jesus, God was revealed to us.

NATIVIDAD 2016 Queridos Feligreses, Navidad es un tiempo especial para nosotros – un tiempo para reconocer el amor y la bondad de Dios; un tiempo para saber que Cristo ha venido entre nosotros; un tiempo para recordar que Dios comparte las mismas alegrías y tristezas que nosotros; un tiempo para regocijarse en la esperanza de la vida eterna que Jesús nos trae a nosotros. La celebración de la Navidad es para reconocer el amor y la bondad de Dios. Él está entre nosotros; El comparte nuestra condición humanan; Él se dio a si mismo sin reserva. Que esta temporada de Navidad nos encuentre en abundante amor, regocijándose en esperanza, y seguros en la paz de Dios. Les damos la bienvenida a todos Ustedes, a todos quienes celebran con nosotros diariamente y semanalmente, y a aquellos quienes han estado alejados por un tiempo. Le invitamos a cada uno de Uds. a celebrar con nosotros, y les pedimos que traigan a un amigo/a para celebrar con nosotros también. Gracias por su toda la amabilidad, apoyo, aliento y generosidad que Ud. han mostrado durante todo el año. Que el recién nacido el niño Jesús, bendiga su familia y su casa. Le deseamos una feliz Navidad y un Próspero Año Nuevo. Padre George Oonnoonny Padre Mathew Cherian
NATIVIDAD DEL SEÑOR Esa entrega total de sí mismo empezó en Jesús esta noche/día de Navidad, una entrega que lo llevó a ascender a la cruz, pero esa Palabra eterna del Padre desciende ahora a habitar (quiere decir textualmente “vivir habitualmente en un lugar determinado”) entre nosotros. En el abrevadero donde se pone la comida de los animales, demasiado inútiles para buscarse ellos mismos su alimento, yace el Pan celestial para los pecadores inútiles. Este Niño envuelto en pañales, que ya prefiguran los lienzos de su sepultura, pues la madera del pesebre debería convertirse en la madera de la cruz. El César mandó a inscribirse al pueblo subyugado por los impuestos y el servicio militar obligatorio; pero el reino de paz de Cristo, que sobreviviría al del César, pertenecerá preferencialmente a los pobres e indefensos. Es por eso que el don que nos ofrece Dios en Jesús revela el mejor de los regalos: el amor. Y también nos revela cómo se ha de compartir ese amor en una entrega generosa.
