RITE OF ACCEPTANCE into the Catechumenate

and Continuing Call to Conversion takes place at the

12:30 AM Mass next

Sunday, December 2nd.

We ask everyone to pray for

those adults who are

preparing for Christian

Initiation at Easter.

Dear Parishioners,

Today as we celebrate the Solemnity of Our

Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe we

conclude another liturgical year and begin anew next

Sunday, the first Sunday of Advent. At Mass today we

will listen and pray the following:

His is “an eternal and universal kingdom, a kingdom of truth and life,

a kingdom of holiness and grace, a kingdom of justice, love and peace”

(Preface of Christ, King of the Universe).

Such a description of Christ’s kingdom may not reflect the sort of earthly kingdoms we learn about and

witness today including palaces and thrones, territories and lands, crowns and jewels. Jesus’ kingdom does

not belong to this world and yet it is being built in our very midst. The kingdom that will last forever is one

where the last will be first and the first will be last.

Last Sunday Pope Francis asked how is it that God in heaven can hear the cries of the poor, but so many

people watching or standing nearby either cannot or do not care? This question was part of his reflection on

the World Day of the Poor which will be celebrated every year on the 33rd Sunday of Ordinary Time.

Focusing on Psalm 34, “The poor one cried out and the Lord heard,” the Holy Father comments that the

answer to the poor is always an intervention of salvation in order to heal the wounds of the body and soul,

restore justice and assist in beginning anew to live life with dignity.

Perhaps as we read these words and look around, we seek a kingdom of justice, love and peace through our

own acts of charity and altruism working as true agents of salvation for those less fortunate and in need.

I encourage you to read the Holy Father’s message for the World Day of the Poor and as we celebrate the

end of another liturgical year and begin anew in Advent may we encourage one another to work together for

the kingdom where the last will be first and the first will be last, a kingdom of holiness and grace, a kingdom

of justice, love and peace .

HABITAT FOR HUMANITY. Another wonderful opportunity is fast approaching for Habitat for Humanity

volunteers to roll up your sleeves and help transform a house into affordable housing for a family in need. The

next rebuilding date is this Saturday, December 1st and it will take place in Southeast Queens.

Some of the work will include demolition of the house to its structural shell, digging out the

basement foundation, framing and other carpentry, sheetrock, flooring or painting. There is also

a ReStore located in Woodside, Queens where volunteers are needed to stock shelves with

second-hand items, organize inventory and work at the cash register. To sign up for any of these

volunteer opportunity please visit http://queenscoalition.habitatnyc.volunteerhub.com and

use the join code: “QC.” Please feel free to contact Deacon Kevin, our parish coordinator, at (917) 807-2389.

God and Father of all gifts, we praise you

the source of all we are.

Teach us to acknowledge always

with generous gratitude

the many good things your infinite love

has given to us, as we support the work

of our Diocese in Brooklyn and Queens.

Open our hearts that we

may answer your call to follow

the message of the Gospel as disciples

in love and service,

so that all may come to know you.

We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ,

your Son, who lives and reigns with you

and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.

Amen

LISTENING SESSION. Since the tragic and horrific

events of Charlottesville, Virginia just one year ago,

we have seen the effect and impact that racism has

had on our society. The Bishops of the United States

have formed a committee to focus and address the sin

of racism. In our own diocese Bishop DiMarzio

has formed a commission on Racism and Social

Justice. The goal of this commission is to deal with

the social and religious problems that racism in all of

its forms present to us. The commission would like to

hear from all the faithful of the Diocese of Brooklyn.

A listening session is planned for Saturday, December

8th beginning at 11:00 AM at Holy Family Parish

located at 175-20 74th Avenue, Flushing. Lunch will

be provided and everyone is invited to this

opportunity to share how racism has impacted our

parishes and the Church as a whole.
