Join Fr. Tom Allender at St. Christopher Catholic Church
Monday - Jesus says we are to love and be loved Tuesday - How do we live love? How does Pope
Francis live love? Wednesday - “Beyond Faith: Let’s be healers of
wounds” Come with an open heart, in preparation for the coming of Christ.
REJOICE Isaiah proclaims truly good news to us! God’s com-ing brings not sadness, guilt, fear, wrath, or condemna-tion. No, God’s coming is a source of comfort and joy. Saying it once is not enough, for today’s readings are full of joy. Mary’s Magnificat substitutes for our psalm today, and our second reading encourages us to rejoice, to give thanks and praise. This is the root meaning of the Greek word for eucharist. We are urged to rejoice and give thanks, because the coming of the Lord brings joy, healing, liberty, release, vindication. It makes the very earth spring up with new life! Good tidings!
Third Sunday of Advent December 17, 2017 Rejoice always. Pray without ceasing. — 1 Thessalonians 5:16-17

Tercer Domingo de Adviento 17 de diciembre de 2017 Vivan siempre alegres, oren sin cesar. — 1 Tesalonicenses 5:16
¡ALÉGRATE!
¡Isaías realmente nos proclama una buena nueva! La venida del Señor no trae tristeza, culpa, miedo, ira ni condena. No, la venida del Señor es fuente de júbilo y consuelo. No basta con decirlo una vez, las lecturas de hoy están llenas de júbilo. El Magníficat de María reem-plaza a nuestro salmo hoy y nuestra segunda lectura nos anima a alegrarnos, dar gracia y rendir alabanza. Éste es el significado principal de la palabra griega para eucaris-tía. Se nos insta a alegrarnos y dar gracias, porque la ve-nida del Señor trae júbilo, curación, libertad, perdón y vindicación. ¡Hace que la tierra eche brotes de vida nue-va! ¡Buenas noticias!
