And you are, dear brothers and sisters, the face of Jesus. Pope Francis Amar a Dios y al prójimo significa ver en cada persona el rostro del Señor para ser servido. Y ustedes son, queridos hermanos y hermanas, el rostro de Jesús. Papa Francisco While there is no written Dress Code concerning how the faithful should dress when attending Mass, common sense dictates proper and modest attire and an environment of silence and devotion when in the Real Presence of the Lord. Mass is not a social gathering. Those who recognize the Real Presence of the Lord in the Church show respect, reverence, and pride.

5 WEEKDAY READINGS SCRIPTURE INSIGHTS MONDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 2017 I MACCABEES 1:10-15, 41-43, 54-57, LUKE 18:35-43 With the end of the liturgical year only a week away, day s readings offer a fitting reflection on how we can prepare for the return of the Master and the full manifestation of God s Kingdom. The First Reading from Proverbs describes the good wife, using some of the imagery applied Lady Wisdom in last week s reading from Wisdom. The good wife works skillfully and with love not only for her family, but also for the needy. Fear of the Lord has nothing do with fright. Rather, it describes reverence ward God and obedience God s will. In the Second Reading, Paul addresses a question troubling the Thessalonians the delay of the end-time and return of the Christ. He reminds them that the end will come when people least expect it so they need stay alert. But because they are disciples ( children of the light ), they have what they need prepare for this event and need not fear. In the same vein, day s Gospel provides a parable about how we ought live as we wait for Christ s return. A man, before going on a long journey, gives three of his servants huge amounts of money invest. (In biblical times, a talent represents thousands of dollars.) The master, representing Christ, eventually returns evaluate the servant s work. He praises two of them for their productive investment of the resources he left them, but the third one is severely scolded because he was fearful and did nothing while his master was away. Clearly, the master has expectations for us. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 2017 PRESENTATION OF THE BLESSSED VIRGIN M ARY 2 MACCABEES 6:18-31 LUKE 19:1-10 WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 2017 ST. CECILIA, VIRGIN & M ARTYR 2 MACCABEES 7:1, 20-1 LUKE 19:11-28 THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 2017 ST. CLEMENT I, POPE & M ARTYR ST. COLUMBAN, ABBOT BLESSED MIGUEL AGUSTIN PRO, PRIEST & M ARTYR THANKSGIVING DAY I MACCABEES 2:15-29 LUKE 19:41-44 FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 2017 ST. ANDREW DUNG-LAC, PRIEST AND COMPANIONS, M ARTYRS I MACCABEES 4:36-37, LUKE 19:45-48 SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2017 ST. CATHERINE OF ALEXANDRIA, VIRGIN & M ARTYR I MACCABEES 6:1-13 LUKE 20:27-40 Proverbs description of the good wife reflects its culture and time. How might a modern version describe a good wife or husband? And what insights can you draw from the reading? As a Christian waiting for the Parousia (return of Christ), what does the command, Stay alert and sober, mean you at this moment of your life? Prayerfully reflect on the parable of the talents? What talents have you been given invest? What can you resolve do day better please the master on his return? Aunque no hay un Código de Vestimen escri sobre cómo deben vestirse los fieles cuando asisten a la Misa, el sentido común dicta vestimen adecuado y modes y un ambiente de silencio y devoción cuando en la Presencia Real del Señor. La Misa no es una reunión social. Aquellos que reconocen la Presencia Real del Señor en la Iglesia muestran respe, reverencia y orgullo.
