What’s all the talk about the Year of Mercy? There are so many great resources online for learning about how our families can incorporate this into our daily lives. Fol-lowing is part of an article I found on the OSV website, www.osv.org. I will be sharing parts of the article for the next several weeks. Also, Monsignor Chiodo will be posting 60-90 sec videos on the St. Anthony facebook page, with practical ideas as well.
Living the Year of Mercy by Emily Stimpson On Dec. 8, 2015, the Holy Doors in St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome will swing open for the first time in 15 years. From that day until Nov. 20, 2016, the Church invites Catholics and non-Catholics alike to encounter God’s grace during an extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy. God’s mercy, of course, is ever-present and ever-abundant. A Year of Mercy doesn’t make God more merciful or more inclined to forgive. God can’t change. But we can ... and must. As Pope Francis explained in Misericordiae Vultus (“The Face of Mercy”), the bull of indiction that announced the Year of Mercy, “At times we are called to gaze even more attentively on mercy so that we may become a more effective sign of the Father’s action in our lives”. The Year of Mercy is meant to be one of those times — a season for Christians to become “stronger and more effective” witnesses to the Faith we proclaim, changed both by contemplating the depths of God’s mercy and by imitating Christ in the world today. To help make that possible, the Holy Father used Misericordiae Vultus not only to reflect on God’s mercy but also to outline a course of action. In it, he offered a se-ries of practical suggestions for how Catholics should celebrate the Year of Mercy ahead.

Dear Parishioners, As we continue our journey through Advent, I am sharing with you the Examination of the Conscience from the Catholic Truth Society. A reminder, Communal Penance is scheduled for Sat. Dec. 19th starting at 9:00AM in the church.
EXAMINATION OF CONSCIENCE SINS AGAINST MYSELF AND OTHERS
Have I been impatient, angry, or jealous? Have a brooded over injuries or refused to forgive? Have I taken part in or encouraged abortion, the destruction of human embryos, euthanasia or any means of taking human life? Have I been verbally or physically violent to others? Have I been racist in my thoughts, words or deeds? Have I hurt anyone by speaking badly about them? Have I betrayed confidences without good cause or revealed things simply to hurt others? Have I judged others rashly? Have I been drunk or used illegal drugs? Have I spoken in an obscene way? Have I looked at obscene pictures, films or books? Have I been involved in any impure behavior on my own or with someone else? Have I told lies to excuse myself, to hurt others or to make myself look more
important? Have I failed to contribute to the support of the Church in proportion to my
means? Have I cheated my employers or employees? Have I encouraged others to do wrong in any way? Blessings,
