We had several angels, some little cows, Mary and Joseph, 3 wisemen, 3 little shepherds, St. Michael heading the float and St. Gabriel. A big thank you to Bill Bedrick for driving the float and also donating the use of his truck and trailer. You can go to the church website to view pictures of the parade. Coffee and Catechism You are invited to coffee in the Religious Education office on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings from 6pm to 6:25pm followed by an hour helping in one of the Religious Education classrooms or monitoring a hallway during class time. We have excellent Catechists, but we are often short of the required 2 nd screened adult in the classroom. This is not difficult work and most of the adults comment that they really learn a lot and enjoy helping. At this time there are no inside hall monitors or outdoor monitors on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. We really need your help so that all of our children can have a memorable and safe experience as they study the Catholic faith. If you have a little free time to help, please contact Susan Warner in the Religious Education office, send an to susanwarner0309@sbcglobal.net, or text for details. Thank you.

To request a Mass to be offered, please visit the parish office or return to the office a completed Mass intention card. Available cards are located in the foyer of the church. Anointing of the Sick Because of the Privacy Act, hospitals and nursing homes are no longer able to provide a list of the Catholic patients/residents for the Churches use in order to visit and administer the Sacraments of Holy Communion or Anointing of the Sick. Therefore, I need your assistance when you have a family member who is hospitalized or in a nursing home. Please call Fr. Orosco at the Church Office at (972) so that I may be of assistance.

3 Second Week of Christmas Religious Education Calendar for January: Sunday Classes: 3 rd, 10 th, 17 th, 24 th. Tuesday Classes: 5 th, 12 th, 19th, 26 th. Wednesday Classes: 6 th, 13 th, 20 th, 27 th. We are almost a month into Pope Francis s Year of Mercy. Instead of making New Year s resolutions to give up candy, lose weight, or improve our exercise routine (all of which are good), let each of us work on being more compassionate, understanding, patient, and caring of each other. Our world needs more love and understanding. Let us be the ones that reach out to others to help in any way that we are able. Parents are reminded to follow the Drop Off and Pick Up procedures in the Religious Education Parent Handbook. Parents dropping off their children in grades 5-12 are to turn right off Frances St. (not left) into the driveway between the Parish Hall and the Parish Center then drop their children off by the ramp at the Parish Center. Parents that continue to drop their children on Frances St. or in the parking lot north of the church will be given a refund on tuition and their children will be removed from the program. Parents that have an issue with this may contact Susan Warrner or Fr. Orosco in the Parish office. The safety of our children is much more important than the few minutes it might save a parent getting home. We ask everyone s patience and cooperation. Thank you for complying with this request. Children s Christmas Eve Mass and Pageant The annual Children s Christmas Pageant, O Come Let Us Adore Him, was performed on Christmas Eve just prior to the Children s Christmas Eve Mass, December 24, 2015 at 4:00pm. Due to the early deadlines for submitting bulletin news for the Christmas season, a written account of the pageant, complete with thanks to all who helped, will appear in the January 10 th bulletin. On Sunday, January 3, many parts of the world will celebrate the Epiphany of the Lord, although some countries will celebrate it on Wednesday, January 6. The Epiphany celebrates the light that has come into the darkness of the world and that our salvation was made known to the Gentiles. In countries not celebrating Epiphany, the Second Sunday of Christmas is celebrated, with the beginning of John's Gospel and its poetic images of light and the Word. Monday is the Memorial of Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton, and Tuesday the Memorial of Saint John Neumann, Bishop. In the week that follows the Epiphany we continue with more of the beautiful first readings from the First Letter of John. He wants us to believe the message: we are from God and are loved by God and whoever is without love does not know God, for God is love. The Gospels this week are from all four gospel writers, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. We read of Jesus traveling through Galilee teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the Gospel of the Kingdom, and curing every disease and illness among the people. He feeds loaves and fishes to the hungry and exhorts his disciples, Take courage, it is I, do not be afraid! when they are caught in a storm at sea. When he reads from the scriptures at the synagogue, he proclaims, Today this Scripture passage is fulfilled in your hearing. When a leper begs for healing, Jesus says, " I do will it. Be made clean. On Saturday, John tells his followers he is not the Christ. He must increase; I must decrease.

4 EPIPHANY OF THE LORD/LA EPIFANIA DEL SEÑOR EL REGALO DEL REY HERODES Grupo de Oración El Grupo de Oración se reúnen cada lunes a las 7:00pm en la Casa St. John. v En estos días, especialmente al leer el evangelio de hoy, casi siempre nos fijamos en los regalos que los Reyes Magos (que ya sabemos que no eran reyes ni tampoco magos, en el sentido que hoy le damos a esas palabras) le llevaron al Niño Dios, y casi nunca nos fijamos en el regalazo que el rey Herodes les hizo a los mismísimos Reyes Magos al darles este consejo: Vayan a averiguar cuidadosamente qué hay de ese niño. v Siguiendo este consejo, ellos fueron y descubrieron al Niño con María doble regalo- y, postrándose, lo adoraron, es decir, lo reconocieron como Dios. v Pero el regalo del rey Herodes no sólo fue para los sabios que en aquel entonces llegaron de oriente, sino para todos los que hoy leemos el evangelio y seguimos su consejo: Vayan a averiguar qué hay de ese niño. v Si logramos averiguarlo, simple y sencillamente habremos conseguido la vida eterna, pues como el mismo Jesús nos dijo más adelante: La vida eterna consiste en que te conozcan a ti, Padre, y al que tú has enviado. v Y no es difícil la averiguación, sólo es cuestión de hacernos el propósito de principio de año de leernos con calma, pero íntegramente, los evangelios. No hay nada más importante en la vida que conocer bien a Jesucristo, pues sólo así lo podremos amar.
