1 Catholic Parish of Lindfield-Killara Diocese of Broken Bay Holy Family Parish Church, Lindfield Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish Church, Killara LINDFIELD: KILLARA: MASS TIMES: Saturday 6:00pm Saturday Vigil: 5:30pm Sunday: 8:15am Sunday: 9:15am 10:15am 12:00 (Chinese Community Mass) 6:00pm (for both our communities) Weekdays: Monday 9:15am 7:30am Tuesday No Mass 7:30am Wednesday 9:15am ~ Thursday 9:15am ~ Friday 9:15am 7:30am Saturday 9:15am SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION: Saturdays 5:00 5:30pm (Lindfield) For 15 minutes after the 5:30pm Mass (Killara) * NO 9:15 Mass at Lindfield nor 7:30am Mass at Killara on the 2nd Friday of each month ** Healing Mass for whole parish at Killara at 10am each 2nd Friday of each month THIRTY-FOURTH & LAST SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME THE SOLEMNITY OF CHRIST THE KING This week: Ezek 34:11-12, 15-17; 1 Cor 15:20-26, 28; Mt 25:31-46 Next week : Is 63:16-17, 64:1, 3-8; 1 Cor 1:3-9; Mk 13:33-37 With the Solemnity of Christ the King the Church year draws towards a close. Next Sunday is the First Sunday of Advent and the beginning of a new liturgical year. As such it invites us to new beginnings, to revitalisation and renewal in our faith, in our spiritual life. Advent, however, can be the lost season, buried amidst the swirl of pre-christmas preparations and festivities. Our challenge is to try to re-claim some of this coming season of new beginnings and to arrive at Christmas not simply exhausted by shopping and parties, but also ready to celebrate the beginnings of our salvation.

5 5 Parish Advent Home Celebrations We would once again like to have a number of home-based Advent celebrations: it would take the form of a simple liturgy which unfolds as the various figures are added to the crib while readings are read and carols are sung. It s something which would appeal particularly to young children, who can be involved in placing the crib figures, but the prayers and readings would provide reflection and nourishment for those of all ages. You could choose the starting time for the celebration which you host. The parish would provide the text for the simple liturgy. All you need to do is provide your home, to help guide the liturgy (using the text provided), a crib, and a cuppa at the end. We would advertise the celebrations in the parish bulletin for anyone who would like to attend. We d like to have a number of celebrations on various weekday evenings during Advent. If you could host a celebration please put your name down on the sheet provided in the foyers of both our churches by this Wednesday. Celebrating Christmas Making a Joyful Sound Unto the Lord ~ Please be part of a choir for Christmas ~ Even if you are not regularly part of the choir, we invite you to be part of the special choir for the 10:30pm Vigil Mass for Christmas at Lindfield (and the Carols at 10pm preceding it). Please be part of making this Christmas celebration special. Rehearsals take place on Saturdays 2nd, 9th, 16th and 23rd December in Lindfield church from 2-4pm, or contact Christian Catsanos ( ). ADVANCE NOTICE RE VIGIL MASS ON SATURDAY 9TH DECEMBER Bishop Peter has asked that in parishes with two churches there be only one Vigil Mass on Saturday 9 th December so that one priest from each parish can concelebrate at the major Mass in The Domain for the Australian Catholic Youth Festival. Accordingly, on Saturday 9 th December we will only have the 5:30pm Vigil Mass at Killara. There will be no 6pm Vigil Mass at Lindfield on that weekend. SACRAMENTAL PROGRAMME DATES FOR 2018 The letter giving all the details and dates for our Sacramental Preparation Programmes for First Reconciliation, Confirmation and First Holy Communion is now available in the foyers of the churches. It is also available on the parish website under Sacraments Children s Sacraments. Correction: If you downloaded the letter before Friday of this last week it contained a few errors. Please re-download the letter from the website again.

6 6 THE PRAYERS AND RESPONSES OF MASS GLORIA: Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to people of good will. We praise you, we bless you, we adore you, we glorify you, we give you thanks for your great glory, Lord God, heavenly King, O God, almighty Father. Lord Jesus Christ, Only Begotten Son, Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father, you take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us; you take away the sins of the world, receive our prayer; you are seated at the right hand of the Father, have mercy on us. For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord, you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father. Amen. MEMORIAL ACCLAMATION: THE PSALM PS 22: The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I shall want. Fresh and green are the pastures where God gives me repose. Near restful waters the Lord leads me, to revive my drooping spirit. The Lord guides me along the right path; God is true to his name. You have prepared a banquet for me in the sight of my foes. My head you have anointed with oil; my cup is overflowing. Surely goodness and kindness shall follow me all the days of my life. In the Lord s own house shall I dwell for ever and ever. At Masses at which the Psalm is sung the response is: The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I shall want. CELEBRATIONS THIS WEEK: THIRTY-FOURTH AND LAST WEEK IN ORDINARY TIME Thurs: Feast of St Andrew, apostle. Next Sunday is the First Sunday of Advent the beginning of a new Church year.

7 7 THE APOSTLES CREED I believe in one God, the Father almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, (all bow at the following words in bold): who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried; he descended into hell; on the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty; from there he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen A CHRISTIAN MEDITATION GROUP now meets in the Meeting Room at the rear of and under Holy Family Church each Wednesday from 8:40am 9:05am (finishing in time for 9:15am Mass). Everyone is welcome.

8 GOSPEL REFLECTIONS 8 BY: BERYL CATES Jesus, a man of his culture believed the end of the world was imminent. It would happen shortly after he died, probably in the lifetime of people still living, though no one knew when, even Jesus himself. no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, only the Father. (Mark 24:36 13:32 Luke 21:29-33). People would know it was approaching when a series of catastrophic upheavals began on earth and sky, killing and terrifying people, wars and rumours of wars famines, pestilences, earthquakes false Christs and prophets appearing, the heavens the sun and moon lose their light, stars fall from and the powers of the heavens be shaken. (Matt 24: Luke 21:23-28 Mark 13: 24-27). Then, the present order would be no more and Jesus would return in glory to establish the Kingdom of God on earth. On a throne of glory he would judge all nations, those living and people who had died to this world and were in Sheol awaiting the end time when they would arise from their graves for the final judgement of all people. (Cf The Rich Man and Lazarus, Luke 16-19:31 Co 15:52 Matt 24:31) With high praise, Jesus would reward the righteous with places in the Kingdom and subject evil doers to dire punishment. The early Christians waited with feverish excitement for Jesus return and as time passed they became restless about the delay and the author of the second Epistle of St Peter reassured them that, God was not slow in keeping God s promises. With the Lord a day can mean a thousand years, and a thousand years is like a day (2 Peter 3: 1-18). They were still living in the last days and God had reason for the apparent long waiting not wanting anyone to be lost but all come to repentance. Since then 242 popes, saints, philosophers, theologians, scientists, fundamentalist evangelists and amateurs have predicted the date, some the hour of Jesus return and all been wrong. The latest prediction, well - publicised in the US, 23 September 2017 by US Christian theorist David Meade. Among the other unsuccessful, 12 th century Saint Malachy Archbishop of Armagh listed Popes before his time and into the future to the last two. Researchers say his cryptic metaphors indicated Emeritus Pope Benedict would be the second last, which leaves Pope Francis the last of 266 Popes. But Malachy foretold the final Pope would be a Roman taking the name Peter, so there s a problem here. Some scholars speculate the world may not end but go on expanding indefinitely being the expression or Word of its Maker, the infinite Creator Spirit. Or it will continue expanding until it begins running out of energy then start retracting back to end with Eliot s, not with a bang but a whimper. Somewhere along the way life would become extinct. Environmentalists warn that should we go on denuding earth s green forest cover, polluting its air, poisoning its rivers and streams, disrupting weather patterns, annihilating wild life and ecosystems that human life and earth s ending may concern us more than we realise. We have no guarantee earth will continue tolerating the predatory practices of its latest, most ruthless species and rid itself of us. Through ignorance and greed we could even now be beginning to commit collective suicide. But should we come to our senses and treat earth with sensitivity, there remains the threat of nuclear warfare. Yet, many failed forecasters have seen serious, scholarly signs in the heavens and earth of world s ending and been wrong, so perhaps scientists are right when they agree whatever happens it won t for another 10,000 million years give or take a million so it s safe to go on planning those extensive house renovations, long awaited holiday, or change of career. However it ends, or it doesn t, the world as we know it, ends for us when we die. We re all making our way to the death event; attendance (continued on page 9):

9 9 (continued from page 8): compulsory, no excuses be there. When we breathe our last breath here and emerge into life unending, in all revealing Christlight we will see ourselves as we really are. As St Paul said: shall know as fully as I am known (1 Cor. 13:13 ). In that definitive moment we will realise how we lived as earthlings, how we cooperated with Jesus establishing the Kingdom of God on earth. Or, with abject remorse and regret, we disrupted its coming and cry out for painful healing and purification. Are you a king? Intrigued and uneasy Pilate asked and Jesus, bruised, bleeding and wearing a mockery of kingship his cruel crown of thorns, answered: My kingdom is not of this world The Kingdom of God is not of this world but in this world. God is omnipresent, not spread out, more here than there, but infinitely God in every particle and wave in creation, every beating heart in every human being. As Jesus died in agony before a jeering taunting crowd, his indestructible spirit was raised by God into the indescribable glory and wonder of the invisible all-pervading Creator Spirit in all things, all people us. Universalised King of the Universe. When he said: Whatever you did to the least of my brethren you did to me he spoke not metaphorically but in truth. Christ has no body but yours, no hands, no feet on earth but yours. Yours are the eyes with which he looks compassion on this world. Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good, yours are the hands, with which he blesses all the world. You are his body. Teresa of Avila.

In Australia, ACOSS estimates that 3 million people are living in poverty, of which 731,000 are children.

This week we are running a stall to support the work of Cana, an organisation that is working to combat poverty and transform the lives of disadvantaged people through education, employment, housing, mentoring, care and concern. We are selling delicious gourmet foods made at Cana Farm after Mass and orders can be taken. See for more information. Thank you for your support.
