PARISH ANNOUNCEMENTS

Saturday, December 8, 2018

9:00pm - 1:00am It was on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception (then celebrated on December 9) that Our Lady of Guadalupe first appeared to Saint Juan Diego. The National Night of Prayer for Life bridges these two feasts to honor Our Blessed Mother and to pray for restoration of a sense of sanctity for all human life.

Please join us as we unite in prayer with Catholics throughout the county.

Come! Adore Jesus, receive his mercy in confession, pray the Rosary & Divine Mercy

Chaplet in the newly blessed Adoration Chapel.

Sometimes we get caught up in the hustle and bustle of getting ready for Christmas.

The most important part of Advent is to prepare our hearts for the coming of Our Savior.

Give yourself a retreat from the world and attend Assumption's Advent Retreat on Saturday, December 15 in St. Joseph Hall. The day will start with 9:00 am Mass and end with the Divine Mercy Chaplet at 3:00 pm in Monsignor Francis Ansbro Perpetual Adoration Chapel.

To prepare for the retreat, watch "The Story of the Nativity" on Formed. Set up your own free account on Formed at: www.assumptionpeekskill.formed.org.

Prefer to go out for a movie and popcorn?

Join us on Tuesday, December 11 at 6:30 pm in St. Joseph Hall and we will watch the movie together.

Please call the Rectory and reserve your seat for both events.

FIRST SUNDAY OF ADVENT

“All-powerful God, increase our

strength of will for doing good that

Christ may find an eager welcome

at his coming and call us to his

side in the kingdom of heaven,

where he lives and reigns with

you and the Holy Spirit one God,

forever and ever.”

(-William G. Storey)

MARANATHA. Marana-tha. Maran-atha. The word emerges in the music of the Advent. Its origin is Aramaic, the common language of the Jews in Jesus’ time, as opposed to the Hebrew which was their proper liturgical language (as Latin is ours.) It can be interpreted in two very different senses, one looking forward, the other looking back. In Romans 10:9 an Corinthians 12:3, Saint Paul, looking back uses “Maran-ATHA” as a profession of faith in the fulfillment of the prophecies regarding an anointed savior promised as early as Genesis 3:15 THE LORD HAS COME. Looking forward, “Marana-THA” is found in Paul’s I Corinthians 16:22 and is clearly a command: OUR LORD, COME! It is clearly the prayer of the young church longing for the Second Coming of Christ.

IMMACULATE CONCEPTION

MASS SCHEDULE

Vigil Mass ~ Friday, December 7, 2018 5:30pm English Mass 7:30pm Spanish Mass Saturday, December 8, 2018 9:00am English Mass 7:00pm Spanish Mass

PRAYER TO THE

IMMACULATE CONCEPTION

O God, who by the Immaculate

Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary,

did prepare a worthy dwelling place for

your Son, we beseech you that, as by

the forseen death of this, Your Son, You

did preserve Her from all stain, so too

You would permit us, purified through

Her intercession, to come unto You.

Through the same Lord Jesus Christ,

Your Son, who lives and reigns with

You in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God,

world without end. Amen.
