2 THE HOLY FAMILY OF JESUS AND MARY DECEMBER 29, 2013 Today s Gospel Reflection 1st Reading: Sir 3:2-6, * Psalm 128:1-5 * 2nd Reading: Col 3:12-21 [12-17] * Gospel: Mt 2:13-15, LOVE For generations, various cultures regarded family life merely as a utilitarian necessity. Sirach introduces honor and respect. For Jews and Christians alike, the value of family goes even further. The family is seen as the indispensable school where love is learned. Paul addresses the Colossians and offers a list of virtues that make for a solid and happy church. These values also make for a happy family at ease with itself and its members: mercy, kindness, humility, meekness, patience, forgiveness. As a capstone, Paul urges love, which brings all of these domestic virtues to perfection. Paul seems to be on a roll as he lauds the virtues of the church at Colossae. With such heartfelt virtues, it is no wonder Paul bursts into song. Who wouldn t? It s clear that the center of the church is love. It is clear that no matter how far from home the members travel, the heart remains and all the members are connected by the gravitational pull of mutual love, a love first learned in family life. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co. Over all [other virtues] put on love, that is, the bond of perfection. Colossians 3:14 AMOR Por generaciones, diversas culturas han considerado la vida familiar como una necesidad sumamente útil. El libro de Sirácide introduce el honor y el respeto. Tanto para los judíos como para los cristianos, el valor de la familia da otro audaz y espléndido paso. La familia es vista como la escuela indispensable donde se aprende el amor. Pablo se dirige a los Colosenses y presenta una lista de virtudes que ayudan a crear una Iglesia sólida y feliz. Estas virtudes misericordia, bondad, humildad, docilidad, paciencia, perdón contribuyen también a que una familia feliz se sienta cómoda consigo misma y con sus miembros. Y como pilar, Pablo insta al amor que eleva todas estas virtudes a la perfección. Pablo parece estar muy entusiasmado cuando exalta las virtudes de la Iglesia en Colosas. Con estas virtudes tan sentidas no es de extrañar que Pablo rompa a cantar: Quién no haría lo mismo! Está claro que el centro de su círculo es el amor. Es evidente que no importa cuan lejos sus miembros estén del hogar, el corazón siempre está allí y todos ellos están conectados por la fuerza gravitatoria del amor mutuo. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co.

3 ST. MICHAEL CHURCH Dear Parishioners and friends, CONCLUSION OF THE YEAR OF FAITH Pastor s Message PARADISE HILLS, SAN DIEGO Could any period in history have been more difficult than the one in which we live when it comes to raising children, keeping marriages together, or maintaining ties among adult family members? Our whole culture often seems to be working against us. The Christmas season, especially, magnifies the differences between the values that we Catholic Christians hold and the values of the ordinary world. And not all the stresses are external. Many of our troubles arise from the differences among people within our families. Christmas can also exacerbate those internal tensions. Sometimes we just want to run away and hide from the dual struggle with the bad influences of the world and the strains of family life! The feast of the Holy Family gives us much needed encouragement. The Gospel story shows Joseph and Mary fleeing to Egypt to keep Jesus safe, and then returning to Nazareth in Galilee to raise him in their Jewish culture. Jesus was protected by his parents from danger of death. Yet they did not keep him sequestered forever. As a child growing up, he lived out his call to holiness while dwelling in the midst of the Galilean Jewish community, with all its positive and negative influences. The readings from Sirach and Colossians illustrate how our own call to holiness can be lived out in our everyday lives. This feast reminds us that in Christ, the divine and the human, the holy and the ordinary have been forever linked. Whether it is in our nuclear family, our extended family, our parish family, the family of Christians, or the human family, today we celebrate the holiness that is to be found within our ordinary human families and communities.

(Mk 9:37) Religious Education Deacon Jun Santos: (619) jsantos@stmichaelsandiego.org YEAR ROUND OUTREACH: cancelled postage stamps TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION We are in the season of the Incarnation, the mystery of God s love poured out in Christ s birth. The word derives from the Latin carnis meaning flesh. Throughout history, some Christians have distrusted the flesh, and stressed a hatred of this world and its pleasures. Perhaps they have not paid enough attention to how embodied the sacraments are. One third-century author put it plainly in an image that may alarm diet conscious Americans, explaining that we wash the body so the soul can be cleansed, that we anoint the body so the soul can be strengthened, and that we eat the body and blood of Christ so that the soul can fatten on God. Catholics get that God is revealed in this world. The sacraments use the stuff of creation: water and oil; the senses of the body, touch and taste and smell. We use the things of this world rightly. After all, God s love poured out into human flesh means the world has eternal value. Why else would Jesus describe the kingdom to come as a teeming city or a marriage banquet? Catholics are realists, and nowhere is that more evident than when we gather for a sacrament. Rev. James Field, Copyright J. S. Paluch Co. Culture of Life "The new evangelization calls for followers of Christ who are unconditionally pro-life: who will acclaim, celebrate and serve the Gospel of life in every situation. A sign of hope is the increasing recognition that the dignity of human life must never be taken away, even in the case of someone who has done great evil. - Pope John II Please come and pray the Rosary to promote a Culture of Life every Tuesday, 6:30pm in the Church.
