3 PASTOR S MESSAGE 3 Dear brothers and sisters: Christ is King. Pilate said to Jesus, are you a king then? Jesus answered, you say that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause I came into the world (John 18: 33-38) - He was proclaimed king before His birth, Behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus. He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Most High; and the Lord God will give to him the throne of His father David, and He will reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of His kingdom there will be no end." (Lk 1, 31-33) - He was proclaimed king when He was born, Wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, saying, " Where is He who has been born king of the Jews? (Mt. 1: 1-2) - He proclaimed this kingdom during his life, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent, and believe in the gospel. (Mk 1: 15) - He was proclaimed king before His death, When Jesus entered into Jerusalem those who went before and those who followed cried out, "Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the kingdom of our father David that is coming! Hosanna in the highest! (Mk 11: 9-10) - He was proclaimed king at His death, There was also an inscription over him, This is the King of the Jews. (Lk. 23: 38) and the good thief words, Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom. And he said to him, Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise. (Lk. 23: 42-43) Because He is our King we must serve Him. To follow Him means imitation: to live as He lives. Only God can call a person "to follow Him" without reserve or limitation. This call is already present in the Old Testament, "The Lord, your God, you will follow... His commandment you will observe... you will serve Him and hold fast to Him alone" (Dt 13:5). In the Old Testament, this to follow Him means to fulfill His commandments, but here, in the New Testament we have a new element that is new and surprising: Jesus calls us to follow Him personally. This call is at the very heart of the Gospel, and this is a call to follow Him by imitation. To follow Him means renunciations, the rich young man understood this point perfectly, and on hearing the invitation of Jesus, he went away sad for he had many possessions (Mt 19:22; cf. Mk 10:22).To follow him means sacrifice and sometimes the supreme sacrifice. Because of this he says to his disciples, "If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it; and whoever loses his life for my sake will save it..." (Mt 16:24-25). Happy Feast of Christ the King! Fr Javier Ibarra EUCHARISTIC ADORATION For those who were unable to sign up for an hour of Eucharistic Adoration here at Ss. Peter and Paul Church, please contact Linda Zumwalde at or at lmzumwalde@gmail.com. Days of adoration are Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays from 7:30 AM until about 7:00 PM. We are now looking for adorers to share an hour with another adorer as most hours are filled with at least one person. You could, therefore, come just every other week making it more achievable for busy people. Call me as soon as posible. Adoration begins the first week in December. Finding God in All Things The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius of Loyola ( ) are being offered at SS Peter & Paul Catholic Parish, Xavier Hall in Mankato beginning Saturday, December 1 st at 10:15AM. The theme of the Spiritual Exercises is to know, love and serve God in this world. The exercises help us see who we are one loved by God. They help us realize we are called by God to follow Jesus Christ, who became man over 2000 years ago to show us how to live. He still shows us how to live today. We will be using an established format conducive to the Spiritual Exercises in Everyday Life, in which someone can "make" the Exercises over the course of several weeks. We will begin the exercises in Advent, meet weekly through Advent and Christmas (5-weeks), break for two months and then resume March 2 nd covering the periods of Lent and Easter (8 weeks). Those interested in making the Spiritual Exercises or would like more information should contact Frank & Jackie Cesario at , fcesario@hickorytech.net

Peter and Paul Jesuit Hall PHÚC ÂM: Ga 18, 33b-37 "Quan nói đúng: Tôi là Vua". Tin Mừng Chúa Giêsu Kitô theo Thánh Gioan. Khi ấy, Philatô hỏi Chúa Giêsu rằng: "Ông có phải là Vua dân Do-thái không?" Chúa Giêsu đáp: "Quan tự ý nói thế, hay là có người khác nói với quan về tôi?" Philatô đáp: "Ta đâu phải là người Do-thái. Nhân dân ông cùng các thượng tế đã trao nộp ông cho ta. Ông đã làm gì?" Chúa Giêsu đáp: "Nước tôi không thuộc về thế gian này. Nếu nước tôi thuộc về thế gian này, thì những người của tôi đã chiến đấu để tôi không bị nộp cho người Do-thái, nhưng mà nước tôi không thuộc chốn này". Philatô hỏi lại: "Vậy ông là Vua ư?" Chúa Giêsu đáp: "Quan nói đúng. Tôi là Vua. Tôi sinh ra và đến trong thế gian này là chỉ để làm chứng về Chân lý. Ai thuộc về Chân lý thì nghe tiếng Tôi".

Están todos invitados a la fiesta que seguirá después de la Santa Misa en el salón de la Iglesia. Novena de Rosarios en Preparación, Desde el día 7 de diciembre hasta el día 15 se va a rezar el Rosario a las 7 de la tarde delante de la Imagen de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe. Es un hermoso gesto de preparación y devoción. CRISTO ES REY El último domingo del año litúrgico celebramos la fiesta de Cristo Rey. Puede que entendamos las lecturas de hoy como acontecimientos que sucedieron hace mucho, mucho tiempo o predicciones que se harán realidad algún día en algún lugar. Pero en realidad nos invitan a aclamar a Cristo como nuestro Rey aquí y ahora. Las palabras de Jesús a Pilatos en el Evangelio nos recuerdan que su Reino trasciende el tiempo y el espacio. Y las profecías de Daniel y del Apocalipsis nos dan motivos para ser fieles a Cristo, nuestro Rey, aquí y ahora. Al terminar el año con esta fiesta proclamamos nuestra fe en que Jesucristo es el único Rey de todos los tiempos, pueblos y de toda la Creación. Sin importar cuál sea nuestra nacionalidad ni qué idioma hablemos: Cristo y ha hecho de nosotros un reino (Apocalipsis 1:6), en un pueblo unido en el amor y la paz por toda la eternidad. Copyright J.
