3 December 30, 2018 The Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph Page 3 The Friars and Staff of St. Dominic wish to thank the many people who have sent cards, letters, gifts and goodies. The entire Dominican Community has been blessed by your prayers and generosity. We shall remember all of you at our Masses and in our prayers for benefactors. He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was obedient to them; and his mother kept all these things in her heart. And Jesus advanced in wisdom and age and favor before God and man. Luke 2:51-52 Tuesday, January 1, is the Octave of Christmas, SOLEMNITY OF MARY, THE HOLY MOTHER OF GOD, a Holy Day of Obligation.

Retirement $ Christmas Flowers $ Christmas Gift Needy Families $ 1, Christmas $ $30, "After three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions, and all who heard him were astounded at his understanding and his answers." As we celebrate the feast of the Holy Family, this Gospel exposes us to a strange tension. While this family is one we can look to for an example, they are not quite the same family unit as everyone else. There is an otherness to Jesus, something profound. And yet, perhaps on second thought, are our families so different? When Mary and Joseph encountered Jesus in the temple, "they were astonished." But at what? Mary's response is surprise. They're not astonished that Jesus is preaching in a place for respected teachers. They're not astonished that their son has captured the attention of the wisest men of the time period. They're astonished at his seemingly disobedient behavior! "Son, why have you done this to us? Your father and I have been looking for you with great anxiety." All our children have an "otherness" about them, something that makes them unique and different. They are distinctly not "me." What will our own children become? What temple will they wander off to? Who will they astound?
