2 Living the Word of Christ Together Pastor: Deacons: Office Administrator: Rectory Phone: Office Phone: Fax: website: Father Bruce Riebe Bill Fredrick, Robert Kirschner Michele Wiltshire Dear Parishioners: Peace in the world and good will to all! That s a familiar expression at this time of the year. You ll especially find it on Christmas cards and greetings. But can we find this peace in our world today? There seems to be an overall feeling of unrest because of the rash of terrorist attacks that have occurred, especially on our soil. This would be the opposite of peace as we know it. However, true peace can only be found in the Prince of Peace. To know Him is to know peace. If we do not know Him there will be no peace. It s simple but complicated. To know Him means to make Him our priority the top of the totem pole. That s what is complicated, because other matters compete for our allegiance. When He is at the top, there is no fear of anything, because nobody or thing can truly harm us. It takes real intimacy with Him to arrive at that juncture, but when we do, what a difference our perspective of the world takes. There was no room for Him at the inn. Let s make room for Him in our hearts so that we can enjoy the accompanying peace. In the peace of the Newborn Savior, Fr. Bruce Riebe

Karaffa The most vivid memories of Christmases past are usually not of gifts given or received, but of the spirit of love, the warmth of Christmas worship, the results of others acting in the spirit of Christ. December 26: Synaxis of the Mother of God Each major feast of the Church is followed, on the second day, by a little feast called the synaxis a Greek word meaning a gathering or assembly. On the second day of the feast the Church gathers to celebrate and remember the person or persons who helped to make the feast possible. For example, on the day after Theophany (The Baptism of Our Lord), we remember St. John the Baptist who baptized Jesus; on the day after the Meeting of the Lord in the Temple, we remember Saints Simeon and Anna, who waited many years to see and receive the baby Jesus in the Temple. On the day after Christmas, we remember the person who made Christ s birth as a man possible: the Most Holy Virgin Mary, the Mother of God. The special hymn for this day says that Jesus, who was begotten from all ages of God the Father without a mother is today made flesh and born of Mary His Mother without a father (meaning, without an earthly father). Mary is the person who said yes to God, on behalf of all mankind, and accepted to give birth to God s Son in the flesh. It is because of Mary that Jesus was able to come into this world and be born as a man. For this, we remember and give thanks to Mary, the Mother of Our Lord. Saturday is a Solemn Holyday. The liturgy will be celebrated at 10:00 a.m. Father will hear confessions on Christmas Eve from 2-4 in the event you haven t had the opportunity to utilize this wonderful sacrament during this Holy Year of Mercy. The liturgy on Christmas Eve will be at 10:00 p.m. Our newly formed choir will sing the responses. Carols will be sung starting at 9:30. Following the liturgy everyone is invited downstairs for fellowship/merriment. The liturgy on Christmas Day will start at 10:30 a.m. Mirovanije $$ from the Feast will be used for rectory almsgiving.

5 A Candy Maker s Witness A candy maker in Indiana wanted to make a candy that would be a witness, so he made the Christmas Candy Cane. He incorporated several symbols for the birth, ministry, and death of Jesus Christ. He began with a stick of pure white hard candy. White to symbolize the Virgin Birth and the sinless nature of Jesus, and hard to symbolize the Solid Rock, the foundation of the Church, and firmness of the promises of God. The candy maker made the candy in the form of a "J" to represent the precious name of Jesus, who came to earth as our Savior. It could also represent the staff of the "Good Shepherd" with which He reaches down into the ditches of the world to lift out the fallen lambs who, like all sheep, have gone astray. Thinking that the candy was somewhat plain, the candy maker stained it with red stripes. He used three small stripes to show the stripes of the scourging Jesus received by which we are healed. The large red stripe was for the blood shed by Christ on the Cross so that we could have the promise of eternal life. Unfortunately, the candy became known as a candy cane a meaningless decoration seen at Christmas time. But the meaning is still there for those who "have eyes to see and ears to hear." Pray that this symbol will again be used to witness to the wonder of Jesus and his great love that came down at Christmas and remains the ultimate and dominate force in the universe today.
