Marriage Minute
Are you still eating turkey? The first turkey sandwich the day after
Thanksgiving is great, but if you were forced to eat nothing but leftovers
until Christmas, the menu would get old fast.
There are times in marriage, such as immediately following the birth of
a child, or while the family is dealing with a loss, that we need to give
our spouse our “leftover” time, energy and attention. While this is un-
derstandable, if it becomes a habit, our spouses will begin to feel unim-
portant. To keep this from becoming a bad habit, try: • Sharing your
feelings regularly. • Intentionally showing physical affection. • Praying
together. • Expressing gratitude to and for your spouse.
These small gestures do not take a lot of time and effort, but can go a
long way to help you stay connected when life gets crazy! For more,

offer support and hope through scripture in a time of transformation.
The next meeting will be held on Monday, December 3, 2018 from
7:00-8:15 p.m. in the St. Luke’s Room at Church of the Ascension,
9500 W. 127th St. in Overland Park. For more information, contact

child or grandparents who have lost a grandchild. Immediate family
members are also invited to attend.
Advent Wreath An Advent wreath consists of four candles (three
purple, signifying penance, and one rose, signifying
joy), surrounded by evergreen branches. One purple
candle is lit the first week, two the second week, two
purple and one rose the third week, and finally all
four are lit in the last week of Advent. The light of the candles signifies
the light of Christ, Who will come into the world at Christmas.

Pantry in Osawatomie through the Advent Season.
CHRIST IS KING
On the final Sunday of the liturgical year we celebrate the feast
of Christ the King. It’s easy to understand today’s scriptures as events
that happened long ago and far away, or predictions that will come true
somewhere, some day. But they invite us to claim Christ as our King
here and now. Jesus’ words to Pilate in the Gospel remind us that his
kingdom transcends time and place. And the prophecies from Daniel
and Revelation give us reason to be faithful to Christ our King right here
and right now.
By concluding the year with this feast we are proclaiming our faith
that Jesus Christ is the one and only King over all seasons, all peoples,
and all of creation. No matter what nation we belong to or what lan-
guage we speak, he “has made us into a kingdom” (Revelation 1:6)—
one people united in love and peace for all eternity.
