2 Page Two St. Charles Borromeo Church 2nd Sunday of Advent

We hear as it is written in the book of the words of the prophet Isaiah: A voice of one crying out in the desert: Prepare the way of the Lord; make straight his paths.

3 Page Three St. Charles Borromeo Church December 9, 2018 From the Desk of Padre José.. Today in our Gospel from St. Luke we are reminded of the preparation which we are invited to partake with John the Baptist. We hear as it is written in the book of the words of the prophet Isaiah: A voice of one crying out in the desert: Prepare the way of the Lord; make straight his paths. Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be made low. The winding roads shall be made straight, and the rough ways made smooth. And all flesh shall see the salvation of God. Let us continue trusting in the light of Christ as we prepare for the Lord to guide us. This past Wednesday, our school children did a wonderful job at our regular Mass of bringing different examples of objects that give light to them. I truly enjoyed their examples because they were focusing on seeing and being guided. May we continue to trust in God and His light. Fraternally, Fr. José P.S. This coming December 12th we are celebrating Our Lady of Guadalupe. Traditionally there is an early Mass to commemorate her with morning songs. This time we will celebrate her Mass on December 12 at 12:00AM. The Church will be open to those who want to come and pay homage to her. The Church will be open all night so as to accommodate different traditions. Our Church will be safe since there are many ministers staying behind on vigil. The 6:30PM Mass on December 12th is for our Religious Education Program. The Mass will be bilingual with most of it being done in English for our Religious Education kids and teenagers. All are welcome. Del Escritorio del Padre José.. Hoy en nuestro Evangelio de San Lucas se nos recuerda la preparación que se nos invita a participar con Juan el Bautista. Oímos como está escrito en el libro de las palabras del profeta Isaías: Una voz de uno que clama en el desierto: Preparad el camino del Señor; Enderezad sus caminos. Cada valle será llenado, y toda montaña y colina serán reducidas. Los caminos sinuosos se harán rectos y los caminos ásperos se suavizarán. Y toda carne verá la salvación de Dios. Sigamos confiando en la luz de Cristo mientras nos preparamos para que el Señor nos guíe. El pasado miércoles, nuestros niños de la escuela hicieron un trabajo maravilloso en nuestra misa regular al traer diferentes ejemplos de objetos que los iluminan. Realmente disfruté sus ejemplos porque se enfocaban en ver y ser guiados. Que sigamos confiando en Dios y en su luz. Fraternalmente, Padre José PD El próximo 12 de diciembre vamos a celebrar a Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe. Tradicionalmente hay una misa temprana para conmemorarla con canciones de la mañana. Esta vez celebraremos su misa el 12 de diciembre a las 12:00 AM. La Iglesia estará abierta a aquellos que quieran venir y rendirle homenaje. La Iglesia estará abierta toda la noche para acomodar diferentes tradiciones. Nuestra Iglesia estará a salvo ya que hay muchos ministros que se quedan en la vigilia. La misa de las 6:30 pm del 12 de diciembre es para nuestro programa de educación religiosa. La misa será bilingüe y la mayoría se realizará en inglés para nuestros niños y adolescentes de educación religiosa. Todos son bienvenidos.
