Saint Teresa of Avila is known for writing that

“patience obtains all things.” Perhaps Saint Teresa

was inspired by reading the letter of Saint James,

proclaimed today as the second reading in the lit-urgy. In the letter, he writes of a patience that joy-

fully awaits the coming Messiah, and is announced

by signs of the kingdom. Today, we are able to get

glimpses of the kingdom in the Scriptures. Jesus in-

vites us to define our faith commitment as we define

clearly who he is in our lives.

Our relationship with Jesus must be reflected

in how we care for others, through works of mercy

that become evident through our service. For this reason, we should live life filled with joy in the

good news of our Lord. We should ask ourselves:

Do we live in the Lord? How can we best express

our love of God in our ministry and beyond our

community?

*******************************************

A santa Teresa se le atribuye la famosa frase: “La paciencia todo lo alcanza”. Quizás, santa Teresa de Jesús vivió esa frase en su vida después de haberla leído en la carta del apóstol Santiago, que hoy se pro-clama como segunda lectura. Es una paciencia que espera con alegría la llegada del Mesías, anunciado por los signos del Reino, que hoy se vislumbran tanto en la primera lectura como en el texto del Evangelio. Jesús nos invita a definir nuestro compromiso de fe al definir quién es Él en nuestras vidas. Nuestra relación con Jesús se ha de reflejar en el cuidado de los demás, en los signos de la misericor-dia de Dios que se hacen palpables a través del servi-cio. Por ello, debemos vivir alegres con la Buena Noti-cia del Señor. Nos podemos preguntar: ¿Vivimos una vida plena y feliz en el Señor? ¿De qué manera lo ex-presamos en nuestro ministerio más allá de la comuni-dad? Rev. Juan J. Sosa

PARISH NEWS

Mary’s Dream - Last night, Mary had a dream about the celebration of her Son’s birthday...everyone was p repa r ing f o r weeks, shopping, baking, decorating their homes, buying gifts. Everyone seemed to be so

happy, and excited about His upcoming birthday, but the strangest thing was, they didn’t have any gifts for her Son, some of them didn't even know who her Son was. Mary couldn’t understand why someone could put so much effort into the birthday of someone they didn't even know and who they never ever mentioned his name. She was so relieved when she realized that it was only a dream, because her Son was being ignored and it seemed like He was not part of His own birthday…. (Imagine how terrible for everyone if this dream was true) Merry Christmas everyone and remember…

nuestra Oficina Parroquial para más información. El Sueño de María: Ayer por la noche Maria tuvo un sueño acerca de la celebración del cumpleaños de su Hijo. Todo el mundo se apresuraba para ir de compras, decorando y todos parecían estar felices y emocionados por su próximo cumpleaños. Pero era lo más extraño. No tenían regalo para su Hijo. María no podía entender, por que algunos ponían tanto esfuerzo en el cumpleaños de alguien que no conocían. Estaba tan aliviada, cuando se dio cuenta, de que era solo un sueño, que su Hijo estaba siendo ignorado, y que parecía que no era parte de su propio cumpleaños. (Imagine, cuán terrible para todos si este sueño fuera cierto.) Feliz Navidad para

todos. Recuerden:
