1 My Brothers and Sisters, This Third Sunday of Advent was known for hundreds of years in the Church as Gaudete Sunday gaudete is the Latin word for rejoice a title taken from the Latin Introit verse (Philippians 4:4-5) of today s Mass which reads, in English: Rejoice in the Lord always. I shall say it again: rejoice! Your kindness should be known to all. The Lord is near. This theme of rejoicing is carried out visibly in our celebration of the Mass: the rose-colored candle on the Advent wreath is lit on this Third Sunday of Advent and the priest is permitted to wear rose-colored vestments all of which helps set a tone of joyful expectation for the Lord s Second Coming and prepares us to begin the second phase of Advent, where we ready ourselves to joyfully celebrate the first coming of Christ at Christmas. This year, the calendar in a sense deprives us of the opportunity to fully enjoy the Christmas-centered Advent preparations that begin on December 17 th because this year, the Fourth Sunday (and indeed the Fourth Week of Advent) is only a few hours long! That s because the Fourth Sunday of Advent falls on December 24 th in 2017, which also happens to be Christmas Eve. So, admittedly, the schedule for next weekend is going to give all of us pause for thought. In a nutshell, we will be celebrating the Fourth Sunday of Advent on Saturday at 4PM (the usual Vigil Mass time) and then Sunday morning at 7:30 and 9:00AM ONLY. There will be no 11:00AM Mass next Sunday, and the usual 5PM Sunday evening Mass will drop from the schedule in favor of our five Christmas Eve Masses being celebrated at 4:00, 4:15 (in Father Feeney Hall), 6:00, 8:00 and 10:00PM. On Monday, Christmas Day, Masses will be celebrated at 8:00 and 10:00AM. Anytime there is a liturgical overlap of this sort of a Sunday with Christmas Eve, the inevitable question arises: Can I go to a Christmas Eve Mass which takes place on a Sunday and fulfill my obligation for both Sunday Mass and Christmas Mass all at once? Well, no. The Church asks us to participate in a Mass for the Fourth Sunday of Advent as well as to participate in a Mass for the Solemnity of the Nativity of the Lord: Christmas. The reason is, quite simply, these are two very distinct and important celebrations and worth our while to celebrate individually so that we can have the advantage of entering into all four Sundays of Advent, leading us up to the celebration of God s entry into the world s history in human flesh that we celebrate at Christmas. We continue to stay awake and prepare, to await in joyful expectation the coming of Christ into our lives at the end of time while we also prepare to celebrate Christ s first coming into the world in the manger of Bethlehem, two thousand years ago. What a wonderful time this is to rejoice and drink deeply of God s love for each of us! Advent joy and peace, Rev. Charles G. Kieffer Pastor
2 THIRD SUNDAY OF ADVENT PARISH NEWS Mass Schedule Change December 23th/24th Because the Fourth Sunday of Advent and Christmas Eve are the same day this year, there will be no 11AM Mass and no 5PM Mass on Sunday, December 24th. (The 4PM vigil, 7:30AM, and 9:00AM Masses will be celebrated as regularly scheduled.) Our normal Christmas Eve schedule will then begin with the Children s Mass at 4PM. Thank you for your understanding! Christmas Flowers To help cover the cost of flowers for Christmas, donations are gratefully appreciated. If you wish, you may give in memory or in honor of your loved one(s). Please PRINT the name of the person to be remembered on an envelope marked "Christmas Flowers" or use the envelope provided with your offering envelopes. This year you also have the ability to make these donations with your regular WeShare online giving or as a one-time donation through online giving by going to All remembered names will be inserted in a special Christmas bulletin. Submission deadline for ALL names will be TODAY, December 17th!!! Families For Caring Thanks to each and every one of you for sharing the hope and joy of Christmas with our less fortunate neighbors. If you still have a gift please leave it by the tree this weekend or bring it to the Parish Office. If you still have an ornament, you may toss it and rest assured all of the needs were met. This is the wonder of the fish and loaves which multiply within a parish of love and hope. Merry Christmas! Newspaper Recycling Drop-Off The students of St. Theresa Catholic School appreciate parishioner support for their paper recycling program, but they request that parishioners NOT drop off papers during school hours, since opening the security gates during the school day and vehicle traffic around the Msgr. McMahon Center Gym causes some safety concerns for our students. Please drop off recycling when you come to weekend Mass, or on weekdays between 3 & 5PM when security gates are open and the recycling bins are accessible. Thank You! Friends Of St. Vincent De Paul we are looking for a desk! There is limited space so the dimensions shouldn t be much greater than 50 inches wide and 26 inches deep. If you have one but are not using it, we would appreciate you donating this for our St. Vincent de Paul office or perhaps selling it for a bargain price. In responding, please leave a message by calling ext Thank you. Many Hands Make Light Work! Christmas is fast approaching, and we need about 20 people to decorate the Church and Fr. Feeney Hall on Friday, December 22nd, starting at 9AM. (We ll especially need some hearty individuals to help with the ladder work.)
