THE NATIVITY OF THE LORD
DECEMBER 25, 2016
Christmas message from the Pastor and Friars
At Christmas time, St. Francis of Assisi used to pray: “Jesus, Son of the living God, splendor of the Father,
eternal light, king of glory, dawn of justice Son of the Virgin Mary!” And people would respond: “Glory to you,
O Lord!”
And Francis would continue: “Jesus, we love and worship you: wonderful counselor, mighty God, Prince of
Peace!” Zeal increasing, the people would counter: “Glory to you, O Lord!” And Francis would praise: “Jesus,
you are brother of the poor, treasure of the faithful: You are the true light, inexhaustible wisdom and boundless
love!” And the people would exclaim: “Glory to you, O Lord!!”
Thus it is, that once again we encounter the Word made Flesh, wrapped in cloth and lying in a manger; once again we encounter
“Emmanuel, God with us.” in the lived experience of our lives: the relationships and love of Family, of Friendship and Community. Let
us open our hearts anew to receive His life and increase our vision that our lives may be filled with the mercy and generosity of the Prince
of Peace. It is with humble gratitude, that on behalf of my Franciscan Sisters and Brothers, I offer our gratitude and our heartiest Merry
Christmas!
Whether you are traveling to be with family and friends, or you have traveled to be with us in this Holy Season, please know that our
Christmas prayer for each of you is to encounter God’s Love, God’s Happiness and God’s Peace!

MERRY CHRISTMAS
"She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins." Today we
celebrate that the prophetic dream of St. Joseph was fulfilled! Jesus is born! A Savior has come to deliver us-Emmanuel, "God is with us." Christmas is a feast of fulfillment, a holiday of deep and enduring happiness not
only because God became man and was born of a woman, but because along with his Incarnation, God
brought us freedom. Jesus is the long-awaited Messiah who sets us free from the misery of our own sins. This is
the ultimate gift of Christmas Day.
We exchange gifts today as a sign of our love for one another to be sure, but also as a concrete, visible way to celebrate the gift
that we have first received from God. We are free people! We are not slaves but rather the children of God whose priceless inheritance is to dwell in his kingdom for all eternity. On this most festive day of the year, we are invited to exult in this fact and spare
little effort or expense to show our gratitude and joy.
We only must be careful not to reduce our celebrating today to something less glorious, something less meaningful, or less profound. This is no mere secular holiday. This is not just a ritual of family gatherings, elaborate evergreen trees and sumptuous
meals. Christmas is a holy day and as Christians it is our day in a most definite and undeniable way. The treats and trimmings are
all signs that remind us of what lies ahead for those who accept the real gift of Jesus Christ: an unending banquet of eternal delights and divine gifts that will never fail to satisfy. Yes, Christmas is a little taste of heaven, the perfect gift that lies in wait for
those who love the Lord.
Please Pray for the Sick of our Parish

La Natividad Del Señor
25 de Diciembre 2016
Queridos Hermanos y Hermanas,
San Francisco de Asís solía rezar por la Navidad:
Jesús, Hijo de Dios vivo, esplendor del Padre, luz eterna, rey de la gloria, albor de justicia,
Hijo de la Virgen María! Y el pueblo respondía: “Gloria a Ti, Señor!”
Y Francisco continuaba: “Jesús, te amamos y adoramos: consejero admirable, Dios todopoderoso, Príncipe de Paz!” El pueblo respondía con mayor celo :” Gloria a Ti, Señor!”
Y Francisco alababa: “ Jesús, eres hermano de los pobres, tesoro de los fieles,: Tu eres la luz verdadera, sabiduría inagotable,
amor infinito!” Y el pueblo exclamaba: “ Gloria a Ti, Señor!”
Así qué, una vez más encontramos el Verbo hecho Carne, envuelto en pañales y acostado en un pesebre; una vez más encontramos al “ Emmanuel, Dios con nosotros” en las vivencias de nuestras vidas; en nuestras relaciones y amor de la familia, en la
amistad y comunidad. Una vez más, abramos nuestros corazones para recibir Su VIDA y aumentar nuestra visión para que
nuestras vidas sean llenas de la misericordia y generosidad del Príncipe de la Paz
.En nombre de mis Hermanas y Hermanos Franciscanos me dirijo a ustedes para desearles con humilde gratitud FELIZ NAVIDAD.
Bien sea que ustedes viajen para unirse con sus familias o amigos, o han viajado para celebrar aquí las fiestas, sepan que nuestras
oraciones por cada uno, es que encuentren el AMOR, PAZ Y GOZO DE DIOS. P. Larry Ford

UN CHALEUREUX MERCI A CHACUN ET A TOUS
Nous remercions les généreux paroissiens et les enfants du
Cours d’Education Religieuse pour leurs donations à notre
Appel Annuel de Nourriture. Nous avons recueilli $2,762.00
et 35 caisses d’aliments. Ce résultat nous a permis d’offrir
des repas complets à plus de 130 familles durant cette difficile
période économique. Nous remercions tout particulièrement
l’Ordre des Franciscains Séculiers pour avoir donné le coup
d’envoi de l’Appel de la Paroisse à l’occasion de Thanksgiving.
