The Bodies of Christ The Blessed Sacrament Chapel and the Poor

A House of Prayer

After God gave Moses the Ten Commandments, He told him to build a tabernacle, saying "they shall make me a sanctuary and I will dwell in their midst” (Ex 25:28). Moses did as God commanded and

built a tabernacle in which was placed manna from the Exodus, the staff of Aaron, and the Ten Commandments. The tabernacle, a Hebrew word meaning “residence” or “dwelling place”, was a sacred place where God chose to meet his people.

The new tabernacle in our Blessed Sacrament Chapel will be blessed today at the 12:30 Mass by Bishop Vann. Located behind the crucifix and glass rererdo (wall), the Blessed Sacrament Chapel is a sacred place where God continues to meet us, His people. Unlike the tabernacle of the Israelites, the tabernacles in Catholic Churches contain the true and living presence of the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ.

One of the most powerful gifts we have to help us develop our prayer-life and our relationship with God as individuals, families, and a parish is to spend time with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. If you haven’t seen the Blessed Sacrament Chapel, please visit it today. Jesus is always there in the tabernacle as God, friend, and counselor saying to us as He did to Moses “here, I will dwell in their midst”.

The House of the Poor Our worship of the Body of Christ in the Eucha-rist leads us to recognize, love, and serve Him in His other body: the tabernacle that is the human person, created in God’s very own image and like-ness. Authentic worship leads to service and au-thentic Christian service is the fruit of prayer. I want to express my gratitude to the many individ-uals and groups who have been generous and joy-ful stewards of their time, talents, and treasure by serving the body of Christ in the “least among us”. Below are a few ways that we have work together recently to serve the body of Christ in others.

Thank YOU for a VERY Successful Jacket and Sleeping Bag Drive

Welcome INN would like to thank the parishioners of St Edward Parish for their tremendous generosity and support of the homeless on Dec 12 & 13. Through your donations we collected 200 sweatshirts, 300 jackets, 50 pairs of jeans, 70 sleeping bags, lots of socks, ponchos and blankets. Because of your love, the homeless of our community will be warmer this winter.

Thank You

We are extremely grateful to St. Edward for hosting a very successful Craft Sale for Concern America on November 22. The proceeds from the sale were $1,947. A special thank you to your Social Justice Ministry volunteers who staffed the craft sale. We, and the men and women working in the coopera-tives that produce these beautifully handcrafter items, are so very grateful for the opportunity for a better life that these sales represent. Thank you St. Edward!

Los Cuerpos de Cristo La Capilla del Santísimo Sacramento y los Pobres

Casa de la Oración

Después de que Dios dio a Moisés los Diez Mandamientos, Él le dijo que construyera un tabernáculo, diciéndole "me harán un santuario y habitaré en medio de ellos" (Éxodo 25:28). Moisés hizo como Dios ordenó y cons-

truyó un tabernáculo en el que se colocó maná del Éxodo, la vara de Aarón, y los Diez Man-damientos. Tabernáculo, una palabra hebrea que significa "residencia" o "morada", era un lugar sagrado donde Dios escogió para cumplir con su pueblo.

El nuevo tabernáculo del Santísimo Sacramento será bendecido hoy en la misa de 12:30pm por el obispo Vann. Situado detrás del crucifijo y vidrio (pared), la Capilla del Santísimo Sa-cramento es un lugar sagrado donde Dios nos espera, a su pueblo. A diferencia de la tienda de los israelitas, los sagrarios de las iglesias católicas contienen la verdadera y viviente presencia del Cuerpo, Sangre, Alma y Divinidad de Jesucristo.

Uno de los más poderosos dones que tenemos para ayudarnos a desarrollar nuestra vida de oración y de nuestra relación con Dios, como el prójimo, las familias, y una parroquia es pasar tiempo con Jesús en el Santísimo Sacra-mento. Si usted no ha visto la Capilla del Santísimo Sacramento, por favor visite hoy. Jesús está siempre allí, en el sagrario como Dios, amigo y consejero diciendo a nosotros como lo hizo con Moisés "aquí, yo habitaré en medio de ellos".

La Casa de los Pobres Nuestra adoración del Cuerpo de Cristo en la Eucaristía nos lleva a reconocer, amar y servirle en Su otra institu-ción: el tabernáculo, que es la persona humana, creada muy propia imagen y semejanza de Dios en. Adoración au-téntica lleva a reparar y auténtico servicio cristiano es el fruto de la oración. Quiero expresar mi agradecimiento a las muchas personas y grupos que han sido mayordomos generosos y alegres de su tiempo, talento y tesoro al ser-vir el cuerpo de Cristo en el "menos entre nosotros". Aquí hay algunas maneras que tenemos de trabajo juntos re-cientemente para servir al cuerpo de Cristo en otros.

"Who of you will help the poor amongst us?"

St. Edward’s parish is entering into a pilot program with Family Assistance Min-istries (FAM), in San Clemente. FAM is a faith based, nonprofit organization that has a long record of successfully aiding the poor, feeding the hungry and sheltering the homeless in this area. Technology has provided instant access to a wide range of resources and has enhanced case managers’ ability to provide long-term care and planning to aid those who seek a path out of poverty. FAM Is linked to many databases throughout the Orange County and state that gives them the ability to seek long-term solutions. Their goal is to offer personalized

supportive counseling to aid clients in bridging the gap from dependency to self-sufficiency.

This partnership will augment St. Edward’s Christian Services and the Saint Vincent de Paul ministries. Their focus has been and will continue to offer emergency assistance. They have done a remarkable job of providing food, rental assistance, hotel rooms and many other services when desperate people had nowhere else to go. This new partner-ship with FAM will now add another level of assistance, which up to now, was not available.

We are seeking parish volunteers who are willing to serve twice a month for a 3-hour shift. It will be held at our San Felipe de Jesus chapel midday every Friday. Commencing in January, FAM will provide orientation to those who want to be a part of this exciting new ministry. Based on the response we receive, we hope to begin serving “the least among us” by February. If this is something you would like to be a part of or want more information, please call our program volunteer coordinator, Jane Galligani 949.276.7382 or leave your name at the church office.


THANK YOU to the Amazing St. Edward the Confessor Parish Family!

I am continually amazed and grateful to see the action you take to help those in need! True givers of heart! With the help you and others provided, in December Family Assistance Ministries (FAM) was able to serve: 3,180 people with food; 463 of these were food distributions to homeless. 24 homeless women and children were sheltered at Gilchrist House, FAM’s homeless shelter, and provided with

life’s necessities. 19 people were re-housed through FAM’s Rapid Rehousing Program. All clients were provided financial counseling and workable solutions toward stable housing. 900 children were adopted for Christmas and provided with toys. 545 children were able to see Santa and pick

out two toys. Many children received a new pair of shoes at FAM’s Annual Children’s Christmas Party!

Here’s the story of one of the many people you helped by supporting FAM: A man, homeless since 201, came in for help to find shelter from the cold. He had been surviv-ing by living in his vehicle but then injured his back. We were able to provide him with food and personal care items. We paid to repair and smog his vehicle so he could register it AND provid-ed a referral to a shelter so he could heal. He came back to thank us and to tell us he has helped two homeless women get off the street! Praise God! Mary Gray Perdue, Executive Director Family Assistance Ministries

Thank You for Supporting the Poor and Sharing Joy Thank you for your support and donations during the months of November and December. As a result of your generosity many of our less fortunate brothers and sisters received food, toys, gift cards and other support from our Christian Service and St. Vincent de Paul ministries.

In mid-November BUNDLE SUNDAY was once again a huge success! The St. Vincent de Paul truck left our lot fully packed with your donations of household items and clothing that will be sold at SVdP thrift stores to raise money to help the poor.

For Thanksgiving, 80 turkeys were given to the poor individuals and families from St. Edward the Confessor and San Felipe de Jesús most of who receive food weekly from our food pantry.

During Advent and Christmas you helped to bring the joy of Christmas to many poor individuals and families in our community with your gift cards and cash donations of $3,474.

Fifty-eight families, made up of 99 adults and 171 children, were adopted by you and provided with Christmas dinner and gifts.

And you didn’t forget the children! It was such a joy to see 141 excited children be blessed with new toys donated by parishioners, school children, the Knights of Colum-bus, and St. Vincent de Paul Toy Collaborative.

THANK YOU to the many volunteers who helped to make these programs so successful. They donat-ed many hours to bring joy to others. We are truly blessed as a parish to have so many volunteers who

help serve and care for the poor.

Faith Formation Calendar at a Glance

What Is A Small Group and What Do They Do? A small group consists of three or more people who gather at a chosen time in a home, workplace, other designated place, or online. A small group comes together to talk about God and faith and Some groups study Scripture or watch and discuss a video se-ries. Other groups do service projects together. IT’S UP TO THE SMALL GROUP TO DECIDE what to do at each meeting. The main purpose is to form companionship on the spiritual journey so that no one feels alone.

Who Can Join a Small Group? Any adults, any age – singles, married people (with children or without children), co-workers, neighbors, friends – can join a small group. You can choose a multi-generational group or a group specifically your age… Ready? Find a group that fits you or start one of your own.

Start A Small Group We need people who are willing to start small groups and host them. This simply means that you are the designated organizer/facilitator. The best part of starting a small group is that you get to choose when you meet, the location, and what you would like the group to do. WE WILL TRAIN YOU TO BE A FACILITATOR. IT IS EASY AND NOT TIME-CONSUMING. The parish will match people to what your group does, when it meets, and where. OR you can invite people to join your group and form it yourself. Whatever works for you.

Support Christian Refugees

Christians in the Middle East face perse-cution and extinction simply because they are Christians. The Knights of Columbus have pur-chased olive wood crosses made by Christians in Beth-lehem. If you would like one of these crosses, they will be available from the Knights at a table after Masses on the weekend of January 17. The Knights are requesting a minimum donation of $10 dollars for a cross. The proceeds will go to the refugee camps in Iraq and Syria.
