They were overjoyed at seeing the star, and on entering

the house they saw the child with Mary his mother. They

prostrated themselves and did him homage. Then they

opened their treasures and offered him gifts of gold,

frankincense, and myrrh. - Mt 2:10-11

Excerpts from the Lectionary for Mass ©2001, 1998, 1970 CCD.

20 C + M + B 19

Epiphany, like Christmas, is celebrated in

various ways by different nationalities and

cultures. The customs and traditions sur-

rounding these days give them a distinct

feel and meaning.

In many Slavic traditions, Epiphany is ob-

served by marking the year on the mantle

of the entrance to a room or house. In the

center are the initials of the traditional

names of the three wise men: Caspar,

Melchior and Balthasar. The purpose is to

ask God’s blessing on the home, marking it

as though the wise men had come and found therein the Christ Child. It

reminds us of the marking of the doorways in Egypt with the blood of the

lamb so that the angel of death would pass over. God’s blessing comes to

each home as a source of protection and grace.

In some places, Epiphany is celebrated much like a mini-Christmas. Gifts

are exchanged in memory of the gifts of the wise men and special meals

are prepared. In any event, the manifestation of Christ as the light of the

world is a time to seek God’s blessing and rejoice in the gift of Jesus to us

and to all the world. (LPI)

LORD GOD OF HEAVEN AND EARTH, YOU REVEALED YOUR ONLY-BEGOTTEN SON TO EVERY

NATION BY THE GUIDANCE OF A STAR. BLESS THIS HOUSE AND ALL WHO INHABIT IT.

FILL US WITH THE LIGHT OF CHRIST, THAT OUR CONCERN FOR OTHERS MAY REFLECT

YOUR LOVE. WE ASK THIS THROUGH CHRIST OUR LORD.

AMEN.

Gospel Reading

Matthew 2:1-12

The Magi seek out Jesus and do him

homage.

Family Connection

The tradition of giving gifts at Christ-

mas is thought by some to be rooted

in the gift giving of the Magi. In

many cultures, gifts are not ex-

changed at Christmas, but rather on

the feast of the Epiphany. Whenever

you exchange your Christmas gifts,

take some time to reflect on this

tradition of gift giving at Christmas.

Think of the best gift you have re-

ceived. What was it? What made it

special? Was it the gift itself, the

thought that went into it, or the per-

son who gave it to you?

Read today’s Gospel, Matthew 2:1-

12. The gifts of the Magi—gold,

frankincense, and myrrh—have

come to be understood as symbols

of Christ’s royalty, divinity, and even-

tual suffering and death. They are

special because in giving them, the

Magi acknowledge who Jesus was to

be: our Savior. We pray that we will

acknowledge Jesus as Savior in all

that we do and say. Conclude by

singing together ―We Three Kings.‖

CELEBRATE LITTLE CHRISTMAS

WITH ST. JOSEPH PARISH AT OUR WEEKEND

MASSES JANUARY 5-6, 2019

Everyone knows that Christmas is celebrated on December 25th, but 12

days later, on January 6th, many Christians around the world enjoy a Little

Christmas celebration. Actually known by many names, including, the

Epiphany, Three Kings’ Day, the 12th Day of Christmas or Little Christ-

mas, January 6th was first celebrated as a feast day in the 4th century to

commemorate Jesus’ introduction in human form. Religious scholars ex-

plain that for many devout Christians, Christmas is a season rather than a

day; — with festivities beginning with Advent and concluding with the

Epiphany. And for these many Christians, whether you call it the Epiph-

any or Little Christmas, on January 6, gifts are exchanged in celebration of

when the wise men (or Magi) brought gifts of gold, frankincense and

myrrh to the baby Jesus. Tradition names these wise men Caspar, Melchior

and Balthasar.

St. Joseph Parish and the Respect Life Ministry is taking up a Second Col-

lection on Little Christmas Weekend. Will you be among those who

bring your gift of a special offering on Saturday, January 5 or Sun-

day, January 6, 2019 for PASS (Pregnancy Aid South Suburbs) to

support their work and their ministries? For those facing an unexpected

pregnancy, PASS offers hope and practical support. For those who have

experienced an abortion and are now struggling with their decision, PASS

is there to listen and to help. For parents entering a new chapter of life,

PASS offers resources and training. For those at risk of unhealthy behav-

iors PASS offers early intervention programs. All donations are 100% tax

deductible as allowable by law. PASS is a 501(c)3 organization and ac-

cepts no federal funding. PASS relies on the generous support of indi-

viduals, churches and businesses.

The Respect Life Ministry of St. Joseph Parish wish you and your family

an extra measure of comfort, joy and love this Christmas and throughout

the New Year. Thank you for all you do for life

Again this year the parishioners at St. Joseph donated so

many toys, we really needed to have help carrying them

to our car. Thanks to all of you for your many dona-

tions of toys and gift cards for the children and families

that are part of the Respond Now caring areas.

"WE THREE KINGS"

The song "We Three Kings" details

the gifts of the Magi, but do you know

what you're singing? "Born a king on

Bethlehem's plan, gold I bring to

crown Him again." This one is the

most straightforward - gold symbol-

izes the Kingship of Christ. "Myrrh is

mine: its bitter perfume breathes a

life of gathering gloom." Myrrh is an

embalming spice. Already at Christ's

birth, we have the symbolic reminder

of his death. "Frankincense to offer

have I. Incense owns a deity nigh." In

many religious traditions, incense

symbolizes prayers rising to heaven.

In some pagan traditions, it is

thought to help "call down" the deity.

The gift of frankincense symbolizes

Jesus' role as the Great High Priest,

sanctifying the world through his sac-

rifice. (LPI)

can pray? The answer is simple. That na-

one is my brother and my sister. If we

gotten that we belong to each other.
