3 FINDING GOD The splendid magi, all sparkle and dash and solemnity, march right up off the pages of Matthew s Gospel and into our churches today. Matthew alone tells us this grand and seductive story so that we might see the light and know that the child these magi visited is the fulfillment of prophecy, the king of the world that stretches to the magi s home country and beyond, right down the ages to us. We too see and understand anew. Like the magi, our patron saints for this day, we see in the newborn child the king of the universe and light of the world. Like the magi, we find in ourselves a new faith and a new life. Like them, we return to our home by a new route. We are asked to come away from this festive season ourselves renewed and awake to the presence of God among us. We are asked to find God where God is to be found, to be attentive and surprised and ready to bow down in adoration and to offer our gifts. TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Monday of this week is Christmas Day in Russia and in much of the Orthodox world. This curious difference in schedule has a lot to do with how calendars have been developed and changed over the years. In the year 45 B.C. Julius Ceasar gave the empire his Julian Calendar, with the winter solstice on January 6. This put an end to a system in which officials called pontiffs were able to tweak the calendar by adding extra days in as needed. He invented two new months at that time, December and January; and in order to correct the mess the pontiffs had made, forced a year of 445 days on the empire in what he named The Last Year of Confusion. The new months varied in number of days according to a complex schedule, but the calendar was still off by nearly twelve minutes a year, and lost a full day every 130 years. Pope Gregory XIII reformed the calendar in 1583, but not everyone appreciated his efforts. England held out for two hundred years. The year 1700 was a leap year in England, but not in France; they were eleven days apart! George Washington was really born on February 11; when the Gregorian calendar was finally adopted in the English colonies shortly before the Revolution, he had to move his birthday to February 22. Now the calendars are thirteen days apart, which accounts for Russia s Julian calendar Christmas. And Caesar thought he had brought confusion to an end! FOOD PANTRY PLEASE do not place perishable items in the Food Pantry Bins in the vestibules of church. These bins are not cleared out on a day to day basis, therefore we have experienced some spoiled and rotten food. Our Food Pantry distributes food on the second Saturday of the month only! We accept all canned goods, boxed dinners, canned meats etc. We appreciate your generosity and thank you for your support!

Diane Merz (# ) Dynamic Catholic, Alive! Introducing the Year of Prayer, Study, Generosity & Evangelization The year 2019 is dedicated to all Four Signs of a Dynamic Catholic: Prayer, Study, Generosity, and Evangelization! Two key components of Evangelization are being welcoming and providing radical hospitality. The Gospel today provides a great example of both welcoming and hospitality. The wise men traveled a very long distance to show welcome and hospitality to the newborn King of the Jews. They provided generous gifts and gave Him homage. Mary and Joseph welcomed the strangers and presented a beautiful example of radical hospitality. Mary and Joseph were probably still extremely tired from their own journey from Nazareth to Bethlehem and from the anxiety of giving birth to a baby in a manger. However, they realized they were called to share Jesus with others and they did. How do you show welcoming and radical hospitality? When was the last time you shared Jesus with others? archstl.org/dynamic Annual Roe v. Wade Memorial Mass Saturday, January 26, Cathedral Basilica January 22, 2019 marks 46 years since the U.S. Supreme Court legalized abortion. Please join the St. Louis Pro-Life Community at 10 a.m. on January 26 at the Cathedral Basilica to pray for an end to abortion, healing and forgiveness for those involved in abortion, and an increased respect for all human life.
