DECEMBER 16, 2018 3RD SUNDAY OF ADVENT
Tercer Domingo de Adviento
El deporte olímpico que yo practico es el de preocu-parme. Soy la mejor que ha jugado este juego. En particular, lo que hace que yo sea tan versátil es que en el momento en que se resuelve una de mis preo-cupaciones, inmediatamente puedo saltar a la otra, y luego a la otra. Es una manera arrogante de vivir, si te pones a pensar. Nunca me detengo a agradecer cuando una de mis preocupaciones se resuelve. Inmediatamente llamo a la que sigue en la fila y comienzo a masajearla, ma-rinarla, ponerla a hervir en una mecha eternamente tibia. Busco todas las maneras posibles de cómo po-drían salir las cosas fatalmente mal. Estoy convenci-da de que depende de mí el que los planetas se que-den clavados en sus orbitas. Cuando voy en un avión y la turbulencia comienza a sacudirlo, creo inmedia-tamente que tengo que meterme a la cabina y tomar control del asunto. No se preocupen por nada, nos dice Pablo. ¿Qué no es muy fácil para él decirlo? Bueno, veamos. Antes de que lo encarcelaran en Roma (donde fue escrita esta carta, más o menos en el año 62), Pablo había sufrido un naufragio, lo había mordido una serpien-te, había sido apedreado, y abandonado a morir en las prisiones de Cesárea y Efesios. Después, el extre-madamente inestable Emperador Nero de Roma co-menzó su persecución de la naciente iglesia dos años después de que Pablo fue encarcelado ahí. Un día—¿o quizá una noche?—los guaridas romanos sacaron a Pablo de su celda, y lo llevaron al lugar donde llevaban a cabo las decapitaciones. ¿Acaso tembló de miedo en este momento? ¿Se había preo-cupado por su muerte durante todos los años antes de que le llegara el día? Esto sí sabemos: cuando estaba encadenado en Ro-ma, San Pablo nos exhortó a orar, y a dar gracias, a pedirle a Dios lo que necesitemos. Y después, nos prometió que la paz de Cristo nos protegerá. Te apuesto que a él lo protegió.
¿De qué manera la ansiedad me roba la paz?

Third Sunday of Advent
My Olympic sport is worrying. I’m the best who ever played the game. What makes me particularly versa-tile is that, the very second one worry is resolved, I can leap immediately to the next one, and the next one. It’s an arrogant way to live, if you think about it.
I never stop to give thanks when the first worry turns up solved. I call up the next one in the queue and begin massaging it, marinating it, simmering it over an endlessly warm burner. I look at every possible way things can go fatally awry. I’m pretty sure it’s up to me to keep the planets in their fixed orbits. When turbu-lence bounces the plane around I think I need to get up there and take over.
Have no anxiety about anything, says Paul. Easy for him to say? Well, let’s see. Prior to his imprisonment in Rome (the location of this letter, probably around the year 62), Paul had been shipwrecked, snake-bit, stoned with rocks, and left to languish in prisons in Caesarea and Ephesus. Then, the grossly unstable Em-peror Nero of Rome started his persecution of the ear-ly church two years after Paul was imprisoned there.
One day—or was it night?—the Roman guards took Paul from his cell, and led him to the beheading block. Had he trembled in fear of this moment? Had he wor-ried it to death all the years before it happened? We know this: while in chains in Rome, St. Paul ex-horted us to pray, and offer thanks, and tell God what we need. And then, he promised, the peace of Christ will guard us. I’ll bet it guarded him.
How is anxiety stealing my peace?

Original Olive Wood Handicrafts from Bethlehem
December 29th & 30th after all Masses
Olive Wood Statues: Jesus, Virgin Mary, Holy Family, Angels & Saints
Nativity Scenes - Christmas Ornaments - Crosses and Crucifixes
Rosaries & Bracelets - Kitchen Utensils - Church Supplies -Wall Hangings & more!
Bethlehem Handicrafts will be at our church presenting Holy figurines from Christian hands thousands of miles away to your hands, so that a piece of the Holy Land may bring joy and love to your homes. The Bannoura family, some of whom are the artists in Bethlehem, have been blessed to be able to present the work of those 1 percent Christians to our Parish.
Grace your home with handcrafted quality olive wood crafts, meticulously and patiently crafted by Christians from the Holy Land. The hands do the labor, but the tex-ture and color of the grains convey a mellow intrinsic tone.
This art is considered the bread and butter to hundreds of Christian families in the Holy Land and is very detrimental to the existence of the one percent Christian minority in the region, a bracket of society who have weathered the storm to remain as the guardians and pillars of the Holy sites.

LIVE THE LITURGY - This Gaudete Sunday calls us to rejoice because the Lord is near. Does your heart rejoice and sing, or are the pressures and burdens of life weighing you down? We can easily become overwhelmed. The weaknesses and sins of life, indeed our own weakness and sin, eat away at the joy and hope God wants us to know. Those who are grounded in their faith and possess deep spiritual lives know that God is near. Realizing this puts life into perspective. We really want to be free from our bur-dens but do not always know how to achieve this. We keep stumbling and falling. Advent is a time when we can learn to "do life differently," just like John the Baptist instructed the crowds. Joy and hope are the gifts God offers, not anxiety and despair.
EVERYDAY STEWARDSHIP - I wish I were a better steward. I would like to think I am a pretty generous person, and I do work hard to cultivate the characteristics of a good Everyday Steward in my life. However, stewardship is about more than giving. It is also about pru-dence and wise planning. It is about storing up grain for the lean years and making sure there is enough oil to light your lamps when the power goes out. If I were a better steward, I would have that $1,000 emergency fund to dip into when I need a car repair. I would save more for retirement and vaca-tion. I would have more food in the garage freezer because I bought more on sale and prepared for when money was a little tighter. In a nutshell, I would be prepared for whatever comes my way, good or bad. Advent is a time of preparation. We not only prepare for Christmas, but for the day when Jesus Christ returns again. Unfortunately, we too often act like this is the only time to prepare for such events. We should be preparing all through-out the year. If we only focus on our spirituality at Advent and Lent, then we are poor stewards of our time the rest of the year. The wise steward is always cultivating their faith and working to im-prove their relationship with God. They know that they need to be prepared for anything at any time. They stand ready, waiting for the call of their God. -- Tracy Earl Welliver, MTS

VIVIR LA LITURGIA - Este domingo de gaudete nos llama a regocijar, que ya llega el Señor. ¿Su corazón le canta de alegría? o, ¿está lleno preocupaciones de la vida? Es fácil dejar que nos controlen nuestras preocupaciones diarias. Las de-bilidades y pecados del mundo, tanto como nuestras pro-pias debilidades y pecados pueden quitarnos la paz y alegría que Dios quiere para cada uno de nosotros. Los que están fuertes en su fe y espiritualidad, saben que Dios está cerca. Cuando uno se da cuenta de esto, le abre los ojos a una perspectiva nueva. Muchas veces, uno quiere liberarse de sus ansiedades y presiones, pero no sabe cómo. Uno intenta y se cae. El adviento es un tiem-po en el que uno puede aprender a vivir de una forma diferente, así como indicó Juan el bautista. La alegría y la esperanza son los regalos que Dios nos ofrece, no la an-siedad ni la desesperanza.

PREGUNTAS DE LA SEMANA - Primera lectura El profeta Sofonías fue activo durante el reino del Rey Josías de Judá (640-609 A.C.) poco antes de la caída de Jerusalén a los Babilonios. Sofonías era, en muchas formas, un profeta de fa-talidad. Sin embargo, las profecías de hoy están llenos de con esperanza para un nuevo comienzo. Como una persona de fe, ¿cómo encuentra usted la esperanza en momentos difíciles? Segunda lectura La carta de San Pablo a los filipenses se le llama también "carta de alegría." La lectura de hoy ofrece un ejemplo de la felicidad espiritual de Pablo. ¿Quiénes son las personas en su comuni-dad de fe que son modelos de alegría espiritual? Lectura del Evangelio Juan el bautista reta a la gente, los recaudadores de impuestos y los soldados que viven una vida honesta y honorable para prepararse para la llegada del Señor. ¿De qué formas es este mensaje un reto espiritual hoy?
