3 PAGE THREE NOVEMBER 25, 2018 SATURDAY, DECEMBER 8th, A SPECIAL DAY Of course, it is a Holy Day of special obligation on which attendance at Mass is a requirement for all Catholics. It is also the anniversary of the Dedication of Regina Pacis as a Papal Basilica. As such we are privileged to ask for and receive a Plenary Indulgence for ourselves or for a deceased person. What is required is Holy Mass and Communion, Confession, Prayers for our Holy Father and some act of charity. It is the Feast of the Immaculate Conception of Mary. This is our belief that she was born without original sin. Mary, under this title, is the Patroness of the United States. On this day, the 5 PM Mass will be a celebration of this great feast, not the vigil Mass for Sunday. Christmas Giving This year we are requesting your help in providing for families and children who can use some assistance with Christmas gifts. Instead of collecting toys or clothes for strangers, we are asking you to donate GIFT CARDS which we will give to families in need. In this way we preserve their dignity and allow them to buy what they really need, when they really need it. This is totally anonymous giving. No one knows who gave what to whom. If you are willing to help us, just drop the gift cards in the collection basket on the weekends, and we will distribute them. Anonymous generosity is the best kind! Thanks for thinking of others.

The Holy Father speaks Worshipping the Lord means giving Him the place that He must have; worshipping the Lord means stating, believing not only by our words that He alone truly guides our lives; worshipping the Lord means that we are convinced before Him that He is the only God, the God of our lives, the God of our history.

6 PAGE SIX NOVEMBER 25, 2018 Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe November 25, 2018 On the last Sunday of each liturgical year, the Church celebrates the Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe, or Christ the King. Pope Pius XI instituted this feast in 1925 to respond to growing secularism. He recognized that attempting to thrust Jesus Christ and his holy law out of public life would result in continuing discord among people and nations. Today reminds us that while governments come and go, Christ reigns as King forever. In 2018, the Church faces pressures from without and crisis from within. Pope Pius XI reminds the faithful that Christ reigns as king of the entire world forever. Let us rededicate ourselves this year to acknowledging the reign of Jesus Christ and his Sacred Heart in every aspect of our lives. Purple is for Advent December 2 is the beginning of the season of Advent and the beginning of the new liturgical year. Purple is a penitential color. That means that the color is to remind us of our need to repent and change our hearts. Advent is a hopeful season and our acts of penance are part of our preparation for the Lord s coming both now and at the end of time. Attend an Advent Penance and Reconciliation service to help prepare for the Lord s coming. Make a special effort to pray before bedtime each night with your child. Use one of the traditional prayers of the Catholic faith or pray spontaneously from your heart.

7 PAGE SEVEN NOVEMBER 25, 2018 RCIA Classes are in session. If you are interested in English Adult RCIA classes, please register as soon as possible. God created all things from nothing. He continually sustains them in existence. He makes possible their actions and leads them to their ultimate perfection. At our meetings for those inquiring into the Catholic faith, we review Scripture from the first book of the Bible called Genesis. Why did God create anything at all? The world was made for the glory of God and to communicate his everlasting love to his beloved creation. He does not need to create us because he is lonely or in need of our love. Rather, God creates out of his goodness and superabundant love. Are you interested in learning more about the Catholic tradition? Are you looking for a pressure-free, non-judgmental environment where you can learn about Catholicism? Have you had a previous bad experience while looking into the faith? Want a fresh start? Perhaps you are searching quietly and need some answers. Get all of your questions answered! It is not too late to join us. You do not have to journey alone!
