Howdy,
We have just celebrated the Feast of Our
Lady of Guadalupe, patroness of all the
Americas and patroness of our diocese.
This is such an important celebration for
many reasons. It might be important for
all of us to reflect on the message our
Blessed Mother brought to all of the
Americas.
Advent season is a time to prepare our-
selves to welcome the Lord when He
comes again. Our Blessed Mother came
to prepare the Americas to embrace our
Lord through the Catholic Church in this
new land. If we truly honor Our Lady of
Guadalupe we must work with her and
call our brothers and sisters back to
Christ and away from hatred and divi-
sion.
May our celebration of Christmas be a
time to remember that our Lord came to
unite all His creation through mercy and
love, not through force. May each of us
look deeply into our hearts this Christ-
mas season to root out any hatred and to
grow in Christ’s mercy and love. What a
Christmas gift we can give to our God!
Blessed Christmas,
Father Mike
Que tal,
Acabamos de celebrar la Fiesta de Nuestra
Señora de Guadalupe, patrona de todas las
Américas y patrona de nuestra diócesis. Es-
ta es una celebración tan importante por
muchas razones. Puede ser importante para
todos nosotros reflexionar sobre el mensaje
que nuestra Santísima Madre trajo a todas
las Américas.
La temporada de Adviento es un tiempo pa-
ra prepararnos para recibir al Señor cuan-
do Él venga otra vez. Nuestra Santísima
Madre vino a preparar a las Américas para
abrazar a nuestro Señor a través de la Igle-
sia Católica en esta nueva tierra. Si real-
mente honramos a Nuestra Señora de
Guadalupe, debemos trabajar con ella y
llamar a nuestros hermanos y hermanas a
Cristo y alejarlos del odio y la división.
Que nuestra celebración de Navidad sea un
momento para recordar que nuestro Señor
vino a unir toda su creación a través de la
misericordia y el amor, no a través de la
fuerza. Que cada uno de nosotros miremos
profundamente en nuestros corazones esta
temporada de Navidad para erradicar cual-
quier odio y crecer en la misericordia y el
amor de Cristo. ¡Qué gran regalo de
Navidad podemos dar a nuestro Dios!
Una Bendita Navidad,
Padre Mike

Our Christmas Break begins at 1:00pm on
Thursday, December 20th and school resumes on
January 7th.
Nuestras vacaciones de Navidad comienzan a las

las clases el 7 de enero.
In Christianity, we hear often about the "Good
News." We might often associate it with Jesus'
compassion to the poor, his healings and miracles,
and the salvation he won for us. In today's Gospel,
we read of John the Baptist. "Exhorting them in
many other ways, he preached good news to the
people." Yet as we examine the rest of the read-
ing, we see examples of John's preaching. If you
have two cloaks, give one away. Don't cheat oth-
ers out of their money, extort, or lie. And, of
course, the warning that the Messiah is on the
move and "his winnowing fan is in his hand to
clear his threshing floor and to gather the wheat
into his barn, but the chaff he will burn with un-
quenchable fire." Merry Christmas?
Not only do John's listeners enjoy his message,
but they seem to think he might be the awaited
Messiah! To understand today's Gospel, it's im-
portant to understand the Jewish people. For most
of their history, God's chosen people had been un-
der someone else's heel. They were slaves in
Egypt. Their kingdoms were ravaged first by the
Assyrians, then the Babylonians. Now they were
under the yoke of the Roman Empire. Familiar
with being strangers in a strange land, welcoming
the stranger, caring for the vulnerable, and enact-
ing justice was incredibly important to them as a
people. While John's words may seem odd or
strong to our modern ears, this call to justice was
welcome, even if it was directed at the hearer.
The truth is, no one is exempt from John's call to
repentance. We all have further to go in the Chris-
tian life. We can all grow in virtue and love our
neighbors more generously. The Church gives us
the Advent season to examine our own hearts. Did
any of John's warnings resonate with you? That
could be a great thing to bring to Jesus this week.

La salvación que Dios anuncia en este tercer
domingo de Adviento trae consigo una profun-

profundizar en lo que es la alegría de Dios. Es
el domingo de alegría. En latín, "“Gaudete,"
cuyo significado es " alégrense". El profeta Sofo-

Sión,... Regocíjate y que tu corazón esté de fies-
