1 THE TOWER December 4, 2016 second Sunday of advent THE IMMACULATE CONCEPTION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY THURSDAY DECEMBER 8th MASS SCHEDULE: 7:00 a.m. 8:30 a.m. 6:15 p.m.

2 HEART TO HEART pastor to parish Immaculate Conception December 8, the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, is a holy day of obligation. Masses are celebrated here at 7:00 a.m., 8:30 a.m. (school children present), and 6:15 p.m. Readiness! That s what Jesus says to his disciples: stay awake... be prepared, for at an hour you do not expect, the Son of Man will come (Matthew 24:42-44). That s what we heard in the proclamation of the gospel text last Sunday at the start of the season of Advent. Stay wake, be ready, watch! William Shakespeare wrote (in Richard II, Act V, Scene 5): I wasted time, and now doth time waste me. Are we wasting the time given to us? Are we making ready and preparing the way for the Lord to enter our lives? Are we going about doing good and by small and large means proclaiming the kingdom of God? Are we wasting the time given to us, for if we are, then, surely, time will waste us. Advent presents an opportunity to grow in faith and then to act upon that faith in the world around us. A simple suggestion to growing in faith: take home one of the Advent refection booklets found at the doors of the church, spend a quiet moment in prayer each day and read the daily reflections contained in that booklet. A simple suggestion to act in faith: join the tutoring effort at St. Columbanus, or help to prepare or serve food at A Just Harvest, or when the first big snowstorm arrives offer to shovel your elderly neighbor s driveway (if there is such a person in need nearby).

3 Hearts Nurtured by Faith If God can work through me, he can work through anyone (St. Francis of Assisi) POPE FRANCIS: TO MEET JESUS, WE MUST GO ON THE JOURNEY The Christian faith is not a theory or a philosophy it is the encounter with Jesus. That was the message of Pope Francis at the morning Mass at the Casa Santa Marta at the beginning of Advent. The Pope emphasized that in order to truly encounter Jesus we undertake the journey with three attitudes: vigilance in prayer, industriousness in charity, exultant in praise. Encountering Jesus: this is the grace that we desire in Advent. Pope Francis centered the homily for the Holy Mass on the theme of the encounter with the Lord. He noted first that in this period of the year, the Liturgy shows us many encounters with Jesus: with His Mother in the womb, with Saint John the Baptist, with the Shepherds, with the Magi. All this, he said, shows us that Advent is a time for journeying and going forth to meet the Lord, that is, a time to not stand still." Prayer, charity, and praise: how we encounter the Lord And so we must ask ourselves how we can go forth to meet Jesus. What are the attitudes that I must have in order to encounter the Lord? How, the Pope asks, must I prepare my heart for the encounter with the Lord? In the prayer at the beginning of the Mass, the Liturgy points out three attitudes: vigilance in prayer, industriousness in charity, and exultant in praise. That is, I must pray, with vigilance. I must be hardworking in charity fraternal charity, not only giving alms, no; but being tolerant of the people who annoy me, being tolerant at home of the children when they make too much noise; or of the husband or wife when they are difficult; or the mother-in-law I don t know but tolerant: tolerant charity, always, but hard-working. And also the joy of praising the Lord: Exulting in joy. That is how we must live this journey, this desire to encounter the Lord. To encounter Him in a good way. Not standing still. And we will encounter the Lord. However, the Pope added, there will be a surprise, because He is the Lord of surprises. The Lord, too, does not stand still. I am on a journey to encounter Him, and He is on a journey to encounter me, and when we meet one another we see that the great surprise is that He was seeking me before I began to seek Him. The Lord always goes before us in the encounter Pope Francis said that this is the great surprise of the encounter with the Lord: He sought us first. He is always first. He makes His journey in order to find us. That is what happened with the Centurion: The Lord always goes beyond, goes first. We take one step and He takes ten. Always. The abundance of grace, of His love, of His tenderness that never tires of seeking us. Even, at times, with small things: We think that encountering the Lord would be something magnificent, like that man of Syria, Naaman, who was a leper [did]. And it s not simple And he too had a great surprise at God s way of acting. And our God is the God of surprises, the God that is seeking us, is awaiting us, and asks of us only the little step of good will. We must have the desire to encounter Him, the Pope continued. And then He helps us. The Lord, he said, will accompany us during our life. Although many times, perhaps, we seem to be far from Him, He waits for us like the father of the prodigal son. Faith does not consist in knowing dogmas, but in encountering Jesus Often times, he added, He sees that we want to draw close, and He comes out to meet us. It is the encounter with the Lord: This is the important thing! The encounter. Pope Francis said he was always struck by something Pope Benedict had said, that the faith is not a theory, a philosophy, an idea; it is an encounter. An encounter with Jesus. If, on the other hand, one has not encountered His mercy, it would be possible even recite the Creed from memory without necessarily having faith : The doctors of the Law knew everything, all the dogmas of that time, all the morals of that time, everything. They did not have faith, because their hearts were far from God. Drawing away or having the will to go forward to encounter. And this is the grace that we ask for today: O God, our Father, raise up in us the desire to meet your Christ, with good works. To meet Jesus. And for this we remember the grace that we have asked in prayer, with vigilance in prayer, industriousness in charity, and exulting in praise. And so we will encounter the Lord and we will have a very beautiful surprise. (Excerpt from Vatican Radio: en.radiovaticana.va)
