The Fourth Sunday of Advent December 23, 2018 St. Luke Church, Whitestone, New York From the Pastor. A CHRISTMAS BLESSING TO YOU May the God of infinite goodness, who by the Incarnation of his Son has driven darkness from the world and by that glorious Birth has illumined this most holy night (day), drive far from you the darkness of vice and illumine your hearts with the light of virtue. May God, who willed that the great joy of his Son s saving Birth be announced to shepherds by the Angel, fill your minds with the gladness he gives and make you heralds of his Gospel. And may God, who by the Incarnation brought together the earthly and heavenly realm, fill you with the gift of his peace and favor and make you sharers with the Church in heaven. Roman Missal With our prayers and love for a holy and joyful Christmas.

From the School CHESS NUTS PROGRAM AT SAINT LUKE SCHOOL We completed our fall session of Chess Nuts on Monday, December 3, 2018. We had 21 children enrolled in the program for 8 weeks this session and as usual it was a really nice group of children. We have been running the program at Saint Luke School since January 2011. The improvement in their chess skills is very apparent with each session and it makes for a competitive tournament. We have two instructors to allow the newer students get separate instruction until they are brought up to speed. There was an unprecedented six-way tie for first place this season! First place prizes were awarded to Franco Aleo, Antonia Ballek, Frank Lettera, Kenny Loonan, Ryan Ma and Ryan Zuccarello. Honorable mention trophies were awarded to Jack Lercara, Nicholas Noonan and Anthony Nuccio. Medals were awarded to the rest of the participants. We look forward to playing chess again this winter. 9

First, our Youth Group went to the Sisters of Mercy Residence on Parsons Boulevard to bring joy, conversation, gifts and some Christmas singing. The youth sang two Christmas songs and then some of the girls performed Irish Dancing - a great treat to all. Then the youth sat at the tables holding conversation with the sisters. It was time now for the goodies and gifts for the sisters. It was a reason to celebrate the season seeing our youth bringing joy to all of them. Please keep all these sisters in your prayers. They have dedicated so many years of service and ministry to God s people. At 6pm our Youth Group had their Christmas Party along with the Altar Servers. They had such a great time with dancing, activities and eating all the goodies. Our youth enjoyed each others company and celebrated the joy of friendship and the season. Love and Peace, Fr. Peter 11
