From the desk of Father José,

This Fourth Sunday of Advent feels so different from last year. We are approaching the Manger having celebrated almost fully Advent. The Christmas Trees and Manger in our Church are up and ready. Joy to the world! I pray this Sunday we continue to take time to reflect on the hospitality of Mary's example as she visited her cousin Elizabeth. Our Blessed Mother took actual steps to be hospitable and helpful. May we learn from her example and be aware of the needs of those around us. Let us ask the Holy Spirit to guide us to be helpful and practical in our discernment to be better. Please be assured that as we approach our Christmas Eve and Day,

we are practically and intentionally getting ready to welcome YOU and your loved ones. May the joy of witnessing our the birth of our Savior give us all bountiful joy and harmony. And we are interceding to our Blessed Mother, to keep us all safe. On behalf of our parish staff and ministers, Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!

Fraternally, Fr. José Magaña, V.F. Be at peace, God will provide

Del Escritorio del Padre José,

Este cuarto domingo de Adviento se siente muy diferente al del año pasado. Nos acercamos al Pesebre habiendo celebrado casi en su totalidad el Adviento. Los árboles de Navidad y el pesebre de nuestra iglesia están listos. ¡Alegría para el mundo! Rezo este domingo para que sigamos tomando tiempo para reflexionar sobre la hospitalidad del ejemplo de María cuando visitó a su prima Isabel. Nuestra Santísima Madre tomó medidas reales para ser hospitalaria y servicial. Que aprendamos de su ejemplo y seamos conscientes de las necesidades de quienes nos rodean. Pidamos al Espíritu Santo que nos guíe para ser útiles y prácticos en nuestro dis-cernimiento para ser mejores. Tenga la seguridad de que a medida que nos acercamos a nuestro Día y Nochebuena, nos es-tamos preparando de manera práctica e intencional para darle la bienvenida a USTED y a sus seres queridos. Que el gozo de presenciar el nacimiento de nuestro Salvador nos dé a todos abundantes gozo y armonía. Y estamos intercediendo ante nuestra Santísima Madre, para mantenernos a todos a salvo. En nombre de nuestro personal y ministros parroquiales, ¡Feliz Navidad y Próspero Año Nuevo!

Fraternalmente, Padre José Magaña V.F. Estemos en paz, Dios proveerá

Holy Family Service Ministry

“The true story of Santa Claus begins with Nicholas, who was born during the third century in the village of Patara in Asia Minor. At the time the area was Greek and is now on the southern coast of Turkey. His wealthy parents, who raised him to be a devout Christian, died in an epidemic while Nicholas was still young. Obeying Jesus’ words to “sell what you own and give the money to the poor,” Nicholas used his whole inheritance to assist the needy, the sick, and the suffering. He dedicated his life to serving God and was made Bishop of Myra while still a young man. Bishop Nicholas became known throughout the land for his generosity to those in need, his love for children, and his concern for sailors and ships.” -from The St. Nicholas Center
