Merry Christmas! The day we have been waiting for has arrived. We see The Word in the Flesh. The baby in the manger is our Lord and Savior. “O come let us adore Him, O come let us adore Him, O come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord!” Enjoy this time with your family and friends and know that Christ wants you to know that He loves you and that He will always be with you if you let Him stay in your heart. Please note that the parish office will be closed the rest of the week and that there will be no Mass on Friday. I will be around for emergency situations on Friday, but also will be spending time with my family. We will be celebrating the Christmas season until the Baptism of the Lord on January 11 so keep your enthusiasm on high and reflect deeply on God becoming man. How can we doubt His love for us with this truth of our Catholic faith? Rejoice, Rejoice, Rejoice! Jesus Christ is born! Thank you for your great charity to me as your Pastor! God Bless!!! Fr. Chris A Christmas Prayer for Families When the song of the angels is stilled, when the star in the sky is gone, when the kings and princes are home, when the shepherds are back with the flocks, then the work of Christmas begins: To find the lost, to heal those broken in spirit, To feed the hungry, to release the oppressed, To rebuild the nations, to bring peace among all peoples, To make music with the heart…And to radiate the Light of Christ, every day, in every way, in all that we do and in all that we say. Then the work of Christmas begins. We ask this through Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace. Hail Mary… Ignite: When was the last time you walked away from a faith event saying, “That was really amazing”? When Christmas Meal Prayer For Families God of all gifts, we thank you for the many ways you bless us. We are grateful for each of those who are gathered around this table. We ask you to bless those we love who are not with us today. In our gratitude, we remember your humble birth into our lives and pray for those who are without enough to eat. We remember the stable in which your Son Jesus, the Prince of Peace was born, and we pray for those who have no place to live. We remember your challenging message of caring and giving and we pray for peace in our families and nations throughout the world. We give you thanks this day and always. May the true spirit and gift of Christmas ring in our hearts forever. Bless us O Lord… you felt something really move you? Please come join us at the Ignite event with a warm, uplifting evening of word, prayer and song in the presence of Jesus Christ.
