Am I Ready? The readings for this weekend are words of warning for us. They are meant to help us prepare to meet God face‐to‐face. No one knows when this will happen so we should be ready all the time. It’s like planning for a dream vacation. There are certain things to do to help be sure our trip will be the best possible. Checking the details, making the reservations, and booking the travel arrangements. Taking care of details before the trip will help ensure we have a good time. There are of course, things beyond our control, like the weather. Even the best planning cannot guarantee perfect weather. Our final spiritual destination is heaven and eternal life. There is planning and preparation necessary for this journey. The difference with this journey and planning a vacation is that we do not know when our spiritual journey will end. It began at our baptism and continues throughout our whole life. We must prepare for the destination every day. In our first reading from the book of Wisdom, we are told that Wisdom is readily perceived by those who love her and found by those who seek her. Wisdom is a gift we have been given to help us in our preparation. Wisdom can help us make good decisions on our journey. Wisdom can be our trip planner if we use her wisely. St. Paul reassures the Thessalonians that if we believe that Jesus died and rose, he will surely bring with him to the Father those who have fallen asleep. Those who have prepared well will be with Jesus in heaven. In the Gospel, Jesus tells the parable of the 10 virgins. Five are wise and 5 are foolish. Five virgins were prepared and ready for the bridegroom’s appearance. They planned for a possible delay. The foolish virgins didn’t plan well. They did not allow for delays. When the bride groom was delayed, they ran out of oil for their lamps. So how ready am I for my meeting with God? How prepared am I? I always keep a small bag with my toiletries
packed in my closet. This way I know I won’t forget anything when I travel. I even have an extra phone charger packed!
Am I this prepared for my final journey? Is my soul clean and ready to go? Have I sought Wisdom’s guidance in my life?
Since none of us know the hour we will be called home, we must always be ready to go. Are we ready? Will we stay
ready? This is too important a trip to be like the foolish virgins. Keep that extra oil or spiritual toiletry bag ready.

Our Weekly Reflection/Nuestra reflexión seminal Mrs. (Sra.) Terry Navarro
¿Estoy Listo? Las lecturas de este fin de semana son palabras de advertencia para nosotros. Tienen el propósito de ayudarnos
a prepararnos para encontrarnos con Dios cara a cara. Nadie sabe cuándo sucederá esto, así que debemos estar preparados todo el tiempo. Es como planificar unas vacaciones de ensueño. Hay ciertas cosas que podemos hacer para asegurarnos de que nuestro viaje sea el mejor posible. Verificar los detalles, hacer las reservaciones y hacer los arreglos del viaje. Cuidar los detalles antes del viaje ayudará a asegurarnos de que lo pasemos bien. Por supuesto, hay cosas que escapan a nuestro control, como el clima. Incluso la mejor planificación no puede garantizar un clima perfecto. Nuestro destino espiritual final es el cielo y la vida eterna. Hay planificación y preparación necesarias para este viaje. La diferencia con este viaje y la planificación de unas vacaciones es que no sabemos cuándo terminará nuestro viaje espiritual. Todo comenzó en nuestro bautismo y continúa durante toda nuestra vida. Debemos prepararnos para el destino todos los días. En nuestra primera lectura del libro de la Sabiduría, se nos dice que la Sabiduría es percibida fácilmente por quienes la aman y encontrada por quienes la buscan. La sabiduría es un don que se nos ha dado para ayudarnos en nuestra preparación. La sabiduría puede ayudarnos a tomar buenas decisiones en nuestro viaje. La sabiduría puede ser nuestro planificador de viajes si la usamos sabiamente. San Pablo asegura a los tesalonicenses que si creemos que Jesús murió y resucitó, seguramente traerá consigo al Padre a los que se han quedado dormidos. Los que se hayan preparado bien estarán con Jesús en el cielo. En el Evangelio, Jesús cuenta la parábola de las diez vírgenes. Cinco son sabios y cinco tontos. Cinco vírgenes estaban preparadas y listas para la aparición del novio. Planearon un posible retraso. Las vírgenes insensatas no planearon bien. No permitieron retrasos. Cuando el novio se retrasó, se quedaron sin aceite para sus lámparas. Entonces, ¿qué tan preparado estoy para mi encuentro con Dios? ¿Qué tan preparado estoy? Siempre guardo una pequeña bolsa con mis artículos de tocador empaquetados en mi armario. De esta manera sé que no olvidaré nada cuando viaje. ¡Incluso tengo un cargador de teléfono adicional! ¿Estoy bien preparado para mi último viaje? ¿Está mi alma limpia y lista para partir? ¿He buscado la guía de la Sabiduría en mi vida? Dado que ninguno de nosotros sabe la hora en que nos llamarán a casa, siempre debemos estar listos para partir. ¿Estamos listos? ¿Estaremos listos? Este es un viaje demasiado importante para ser como las vírgenes insensatas. Ten a mano ese aceite extra o un neceser espiritual.

Giving Tree Our Giving Tree will have a different look this year. There are even more people in need this year. To keep everyone safe we will have a different way of participating in our parish tradition of helping others. Our Giving Tree will not have ornaments on it for you to choose. We are asking only for gifts of cash or Walmart and Target gift cards. We will have a basket near our bare Giving Tree. We ask that all donations be in envelopes and that you deposit them in the basket NO LATER THAN SUNDAY, DECEMBER 13. There will be a second basket near the tree with ornaments in it. When you place your donation in the first basket, we ask you to put an ornament on the bare tree. As the donations come in the tree will be decorated. The tree will be up by Thanksgiving day. It is especially important to remain socially distanced as gifts are returned and ornaments are placed on the tree! We believe this system will allow us to help those in need in a way that helps keep all of us safe. If you do not want to go to the Giving Tree basket you may drop your donation in the regular collection baskets but make sure you write “Giving Tree” on the envelope. You may also drop your marked envelopes in the rectory mail slot. We know many people are currently facing difficult financial situations. As in the past, the collection will help the children in the Courage program, families in need, and the homeless from the former PADS shelter.
Árbol de Donaciones Nuestro árbol de donaciones tendrá un aspecto diferente este año. Incluso hay más personas necesitadas este año. Para mantener a todos a salvo, tendremos una forma diferente de participar en la tradición parroquial de ayudar a los demás.
Nuestro árbol de donaciones no tendrá adornos para que usted elija. Solo pedimos obsequios en efectivo o tarjetas de regalo de Walmart y Target. Tendremos una canasta cerca de nuestro árbol de donaciones. Pedimos que todas las donaciones estén en sobres y que las deposite en la canasta A MÁS TARDE DEL DOMINGO 13 DE DICIEMBRE. Habrá una segunda canasta cerca del árbol con adornos en ella. Cuando coloque su donación en la primera canasta,
le pedimos que coloque un adorno en el árbol. A medida que lleguen las donaciones, el árbol será decorado. El árbol estará listo para el día de Acción de Gracias.
¡Es especialmente importante permanecer socialmente distanciado mientras se devuelven los regalos y se colocan adornos en el árbol!
Creemos que este sistema nos permitirá ayudar a los necesitados de una manera que nos ayude a mantenernos seguros a todos. Si no desea ir a la canasta del árbol de donaciones, puede dejar su donación en las canastas de donaciones normales, pero asegúrese de escribir “Árbol de donaciones” en el sobre. También puede dejar sus sobres marcados en la ranura de correo de la rectoría.
Sabemos que muchas personas se enfrentan actualmente a situaciones financieras difíciles. Como en el pasado, la colecta ayudará a los niños del programa Courage, a las familias necesitadas y a las personas sin hogar del antiguo refugio PADS.
