JOHN THE BAPTIST

At a school open house a woman could be overheard introducing her husband to some of the other parents. “Oh, Bill, I’d like you to meet John-ny’s father. And over here, this is Marie’s mom; you know, the li le girl from our Ellen’s soccer team.”

With sa sfied resigna on Bill introduced him-self not by name: “I’m Ellen’s Dad.”

It’s good to know who you are. Be it someone’s father or mother, son or daughter, husband or wife, it’s important to embrace the full meaning of our various roles.

John the Bap st knows who he is. And who he is not. He is not the Christ. Nor Elijah. Nor like any other prophet God’s people had ever seen.

John the Bap st knows his mission is divine. He’s more than sa sfied to be the one to an-nounce the coming of God’s reign. The Christ is near. Make straight your paths.

DID YOU KNOW

Gifts and toys should inspire joy, not cause injuries.

Avoid safety hazards while gifting with these tips from the American Academy of Pediat-rics and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety

Commission: Toys are age-rated for safety, not for children’s intellect and physical ability, so

be sure to choose toys in the correct age range; choose toys for children under 3 that do not have small parts that could be choking haz-

ards; for children under 10, avoid toys that must be plugged into an electrical outlet; be

cautious about toys that have button batteries or magnets, which can be harmful or fatal if

swallowed; and when giving scooters and oth-er riding toys, give the gift of appropriate safety gear, too; helmets should be worn at all times

and they should be sized to fit. For more information, visit:

Peter’s Pence Collec on on December 13, 2020 "The faithful’s offerings to the Holy Father through the Peter’s Pence Collec on are des ned to Church needs, to humanitarian ini a ves and social promo on projects, as well as to the support of the Holy See.” (from www.va can.va/roman_curia/secretariat_state/obolo_spietro/documents/actual_en.html)

FEAST OF FAITH The Shape of the Mass In the renewal of the liturgy that followed the Second Vatican Council, the full, conscious, and active participation of the assembly was the primary consideration. By participation, the Council Fathers did not mean just joining in the singing and the spoken responses, but active engagement and prayerful understanding of the rites. They envisioned a transparent liturgy, a worship that spoke so directly to the hearts and minds of the faithful that it would require no explanation at all. The liturgy itself is the best possible catechesis on the liturgy. What does the liturgy teach us? It shows us the ministry of Jesus continuing in the present. He gathers a community. He calls us to prayer and repentance and praise. He teaches us with the very word of God. He does not send us away empty, but sets before us a marvelous banquet, feeding us with his very body and blood. Then he sends us forth to do what he has done—to give ourselves for others, not just in words, but in deeds. The Mass is the pattern of our Christian lives.
