3 NEW YEARS MASSES December 31 4:00 PM Vigil Mass January 1 11:00 AM Mass EN EL HOGAR ESTÁ LA FAMILIA La idea, el sueño y la realidad de lo que es familia es tan fuerte y perdurable que lo usamos para describir lo mejor de las relaciones humanas. Hablamos de una familia de naciones, de nuestra familia eclesial y parroquial. El mejor halago que podemos dar a un amigo o amable anfitrión es decirle que nos sentimos como en casa con su compañía, que nos sentimos parte de la familia. Las familias son el primer crisol en el que se prueba y se fortalece el amor. Jesús mismo fue una de tres personas que vivía a la sombra del otro. Esta familia, como la nuestra, no siempre lo hacía todo bien, pero siempre trataba. Estos tres amateurs celebraban un día de fiesta, y uno de ellos se perdió. Los otros dos se preocuparon bastante y se esforzaron grandemente para encontrar al tercero, un niño después de todo, que siempre buscaba el significado de su llamado. Encontró su vocación hacer la obra del Padre pero también volvió a casa con sus padres. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

4 THE HOLY FAMILY OF JESUS, MARY, AND JOSEPH December 30, 2018 My eyes have seen your salvation, which you prepared in the sight of all the peoples Luke 2:30-21 HOME IS WHERE THE FAMILY IS The idea, dream, and reality of family is so strong and durable that we use it to describe all that is best about human gatherings. We speak of the family of nations, of our church and parish families. The greatest compliment we can pay a friend or gracious host is to say that we feel at home with them, we feel part of the family. Families are the first crucibles in which love is tested and tempered. Jesus himself was one of three people who lived in the shadow of each other. This family, like our own, did not always get it right, but they always tried to. These three amateurs were on holiday, and one of them got lost. Two were worried sick and took great measures to find the third, a boy after all, who was seeking the meaning of his calling. He found his vocation to do his Father s work but he also returned home with his parents. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co., Inc.

5 FEAST OF THE HOLY FAMILY DECEMBER JANUARY 5, 5, 2019 HOW TO REQUEST A MASS INTENTION Congratulations to Samuel and Victoria Burns on the Baptism of their daughter, Rylee Anne Burns. Who was Baptized here at St. Andrew, Sunday, December 16, 2018 May the Lord keep her always, wherever she may be, a faithful member of His holy people. COLD & FLU SEASON and COMMUNION The flu and cold season is underway. When we suspect illness, each of us can help decrease the spread of illness by not receiving the Precious Blood of Christ from the cup during Communion. Those wishing to honor a loved one during the celebration of Mass for the living or the deceased, or for prayerful remembrance of anniversaries, birthdays, and other special intentions may call or visit the office. Masses are usually scheduled months in advance, so if there is a particular date on which you want the Mass Intention, please make the request well ahead of time. The suggested stipend for each Mass is $5.00. The Social Events Committee is sponsoring a drive to supply the homeless with gentlyused coats, gloves, sock hats, long underwear, socks, and blankets. Please check your closets for anything you can give. There will be tubs in the foyer for the donations. The donations will be given to our local homeless population and any children's items will be taken to the local school resource centers. LITURGICAL MINISTRY SIGN-UPS can be found in the Foyer. Please sign-up for the New Years Masses ATTENTION: If you serve as a Liturgical Minister PLEASE arrive for Mass at least 10 minutes early and sign in on the sheet in the sacristy. Thanks in advance!
