6:30 am-8 pm daily

Each year in Advent, our church community celebrates with events from two of our cultures. Simbang Gabi is a Filipino Christmas tradition. It is a series of nine dawn masses. The mass starts at 7:15 a.m. It begins on December 16 and ends on the mid-night of the 24th of December. Breakfast type/provided by: Dec. 16.-Filipino community, Dec. 17 Sunday (none), Dec. 18 American food, Dec. 19. Tongan & Samoan, Dec. 20. Hispanic group, Dec. 21 Italian, Dec. 22 Mexican food, Dec. 23 International pot luck.

This tradition was introduced by the Spanish friars to allow the farmers to hear mass before going to the fields ear-ly in the morning. Simbang Gabi is also known by its popular Spanish name as the Misa de Gallo, or "Mass of the Rooster.'' The tradition of the Posadas was brought to Mexico from Spain in the 1500's by Catholic Missionaries. The Posa-das commemorate Mary and Joseph's difficult journey from Nazareth to Bethle-hem in search of a place for the Christ Child to be born. In Spanish, the word means dwelling or lodging. The Posadas begin on Decem-ber 16 for nine evenings, culminating with the Posada on December 24. The gathering begins at 6:30 pm. The Posadas are not to be confused with a mere Christmas party. Instead, the Posadas should be seen as a religious event.

The Best Christmas Party ever!

What a night! The hall was beautiful. You could see many people must have worked on the hall. Every area had lights and decorations. The stage was for the entertainment. Seven mu-sical groups! I had no idea we had that many. How wonderful was that? Santa had his own area. The children were so happy! There was a bar with several men work-ing it; no crowded line. Tables set up with room to walk around. Sister Angela was running

around like Santa’s elf seating every one quickly. The food lines went so fast, so smoothly. In the kitch-en the Knights of Co-lumbus did such a great job! I want to thank all of you for working so hard for us to have such a good time. My favorite parts were to see all the hugs and

smiles and to see all ages having fun and loving each other. We have a wonderful community at St. Michael’s. Let’s spread it all around like

Pope Francis tells us to do. P.S. Father Gus, you take such good care of us and thank you for telling us about the Filipino and Mexican celebrations for Christmas that are coming up beginning December 16th. Barbara Filas

Los religiosos les agradecen.

Jokes for today!

It occurred to the Sunday School teacher, that with all the emphasis on the Nativity over Christmas that some children may get the impression that the birth of Jesus Christ was a recent event. He wanted to be sure they un-derstood that he grew up and did many things. So he de-cided that the topic of the lesson would be Where Is Je-sus Now?

He put this question to the class and immediately many hands shot into the air as many of the children were keen to state their opinion.

"What do you think Johnny?"

"He's in the church, sir." Johnny replied.

"Okay. What about you Rosie?"

"I believe he's in Heaven, sir"

"That's good. What about you Billy?"

Billy was a little hesitant, then blurted out "I think he's in our bathroom sir."

The classroom erupted with uproarious laughter; but eventually the teacher managed to quell the noise.

"Oh really." said the teacher. "What makes you think that Billy?"

"Well sir, some mornings my dad knocks on the bath-room door and says 'Jesus Christ, are you still in there?'

It was the doctor's last patient consultation of Christmas Eve. A mother came in with her young daughter and asked if he would examine her because she had been showing some strange symptoms, including a significant increase in weight, sickness most mornings and a num-ber of strange cravings. He checked her out very carefully and eventually told the mother that her daughter was unquestionably preg-nant. At which news she protested very strongly. 'Don't be ridiculous, my daughter has never been with a man' The girl confirmed that this was true and added that she had never so much as kissed a man. The doctor studied the girl very carefully, then quietly stood up, walked to the window and stared out of it. Suspecting the worst the mother asked if there was something wrong. "No, not really" replied the doctor. 'It might just be a coincidence, but the last time this happened a bright star appeared the East.'

Thank you to all of our parishioners who supported the Caring Tree. Gifts are due today, we will be delivering them this Tuesday.

Thank You!

I would like to once again thank all the ladies’ guild members who gave so much of their time and effort to make this year’s Christmas Boutique such a success, and to all our St. Michaels parishioners for their gener-ous support of our fundraising activities.

Gospel Reflection:

John the Baptist testifies to the light.

Each of the four gospels proclaims who Jesus is in its own way. Each gospel makes John the Baptist sig-nificant to how Jesus’ story begins.

Last Sunday, Mark’s gospel pro-claimed Jesus is “the Christ, the Son of God.” Jesus is the messiah that Israel’s prophets promised God would send. John the Baptist be-comes the last in this line of proph-ets, a voice calling people to turn toward God.

John’s gospel begins before history, before anything exists, in God’s realm. These verses, John 1:1-5, de-scribe the Word who was with God from the beginning. The image of the Word grows out of the Old Tes-tament wisdom books, written in the last centuries before Jesus. These writings emphasize God as Creator and personify Wisdom as a partner with God in making the world.

The wisdom and knowledge we hu-mans acquire as conscious beings can reveal God to us. Wisdom is “a reflection of eternal life, a spotless mirror of the working of God”.

John’s gospel begins with 18 verses about the pre-existent Word who be-come flesh in Jesus. These verses include the three about John the Bap-tist that begin Sunday’s gospel.

The Baptist is a man sent from God as a witness to testify to the light. His witness has the same purpose as the whole gospel-that all might be-

lieve in Jesus through him.

The Baptist is a witness to the exist-ence we may take for granted, the light that rises with the sun each morning, the air we breathe. To testi-fy to the light is to raise people’s consciousness that the life and light in which we live reveals God and is God’s gift.

Like the people of Israel during their sojourn in the wilderness, the Baptist must have learned God’s nearness in the silence and solitude of the wil-derness where he lives. His preach-ing opens people to God’s presence in Jesus, in whom Wisdom, the Word, has come into the world and become one of us.

Why is John the Baptist and his wit-ness so essential to Jesus’ story? First, the Baptist gathers a company of followers eager to recognize God’s presence with them. Jesus be-gins his ministry among these open-hearted folks.

Second, the Baptist speaks as a prophet in continuity with the proph-ets in Israel’s history. In fact, Chris-tian tradition hears in the preaching of John the Baptist an echo of the voice that called captive Israel home from exile.

Third, the Baptist functions in John’s gospel as a legal witness. Priest and Levites interrogate him in Sunday’s gospel. His preaching has stirred in-terest. People from all over Judea are coming to hear his message. His questioners want to know if he is the one who fulfills God’s promises to Israel.

This dialogue suggests the richly varied ways in which people imag-ined the messiah and events they thought would precede the messiah’s coming. The prophet Malachi ex-pected Elijah, who was carried to heaven in a fiery chariot, would re-turn as the herald of the messiah. In Deuteronomy 18, God promises to raise up other prophets like Moses and put words in their mouths.

John the Baptist insists he is neither Elijah nor Moses but a voice crying out in the desert, “Make straight the way of the Holy One.” His role, like Second Isaiah’s, is to testify God will come to revive and forgive us.

John anticipates one greater than he is coming. He insists that “Among you stands one you do not recog-nize.” The words come down the centuries to haunt and taunt us into recognizing where we see Jesus among us.

Our current political scene has awak-ened voices that divide us. What if this Christmas season we attempt to listen and learn from voices that dif-fer from us? Can we recognize Christ speaking in their voices and values? Can we listen and learn from those we only know by stereotype?

Ours is the task of recognizing God at work in that hardest of all places to see-in ourselves, in our passion for justice, in the events of our histo-ry, in our own unrelenting efforts to hold our families and communities together. We live in an unfinished drama and unfolding mystery that is God’s life-giving presence with us.

PERPETUAL ADORATION NEEDS YOUR HELP

We are in the process of registering volunteers for Per-petual Adoration and we ask all members of our Parish to consider. We have registration forms under the podi-um sign at the vestibule of the church. There is infor-mation attached to help you understand what Adoration is.

We offer shared hours for those who might consider a long term commitment. We also are in great need of substitute volunteers - those who would be available to take the place of a permanent adorer who is ill or on va-cation. Time periods convenient to you are offered. We urge you to check the bulletin board for substitute needs as well.

All of our current Permanent Adorers are required to re-register to update our data. All information submitted by current and new volunteers is strictly confidential. Our deadline is January 1, 2018.

Please consider this beautiful ministry. Your blessings from Our Lord are bountiful. Call Roberta, Jackie (Spanish) or Jan for questions and thank you.

There will be no baptism classes in December due to other events.
