December 29th, 2013 - Holy Family of Jesus, Mary, Joseph
From Fr. Suresh TODAY’S READINGS:
First Reading: Sirach 3:2-6, 12-14
Psalm: 128:1-2, 3, 4-5
Second Reading: Colossians 3:12-21
Gospel: Matthew 2:13-15, 19-23
GOSPEL ACCLAMATION:
“Let the peace of Christ control your hearts; let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.” - Colossians 3:15a, 16a
THE HOLY FAMILY… LET GOD SHOW US THE WAY!
"Rise, take the child and his mother, flee to Egypt." What a dream! Or was it a nightmare? To be commanded to take
flight like refugees in the night, to have a newborn baby and no time to pack or plan, all this must have been frightening
to say the least.
Joseph was no stranger to life-changing dreams though. He had already been told in a dream to take Mary as his wife,
even though she was with child. He had planned to divorce her, but the dream completely changed his course. And now
God was asking him to change course again, to relocate his family and live as aliens in a foreign land, under the
shadow of Herod's headhunt for their son. But Joseph accepted these trials, placing his trust in God.
Although few of us have dreams like Joseph did, we do share with him the challenge of reconciling our plans with the
hard facts of reality. When things don't go our way, we can respond with bitterness, or like the Holy Family, we can
recognize an opportunity to deepen our faith in God's providence.
The holiness of this family did not prevent them from suffering. Rather, their holiness kept the suffering from over-
whelming them. Even with the twists and turns in their path, they never got lost. Their faith in God was like a spiritual
compass that kept them oriented in the most unfamiliar circumstances. When we too are called to change course in life,
may we remember to let God show us the way.

THANKSGIVING EUCHARISTIC ADORATION
Please join us at 10:00 pm on New Year’s Eve at St. Ignatius for a period of Thanksgiving Eucharistic Adoration.
Mass will follow at 11:00 pm. The full New Year’s Mass schedule is on page 8 of this bulletin.
CHRISTMAS OFFERTORY COLLECTION… IMPORTANT REMINDER
The Christmas offertory collection is part of our annual parish budget. The entire Christmas collection stays right here
in the parish. All other collections and donations during the year are assessed 7% by the Archdiocese, whereas the
Christmas collection is exempt from such assessment. You can make your Christmas donation to the parish anytime
into January, just so long as you indicate on the cheques (dated December 25th, 2013) and envelopes that it is your
“Christmas 2013 offering”. Thank you to all those who have already done so! Those who do not regularly use
offertory envelopes may use the envelopes provided at the church entrance. Thank you!
Fr. Suresh, SAC
Offertory collection for last weekend’s Masses:
St. Ignatius: $ 4,429.32 Christ the Redeemer: $ 1,161.79
Christmas (early contributions and Christmas Masses): $21,753.54
Thank you for your generosity and good stewardship for all that God has given you!

the world, to guard the cradle of the newborn, the schools of the young and their vocations.
