Our Mission:Rooted in Christ, touched by His love and mercy, the Saint John Berchmans community finds unity in its diversity, proclaims by Word, Sacrament, and service, that the Kingdom of God is at hand, and declares that all are welcome in this place.
A letter from the Pastor
Dear SJB Family,
Today we are celebrating the fourth Sunday of Advent, and as we get closer to Christmas, the readings of this Sunday allow us to clearly see the mystery of the Incarnation.
Once again we are reunited as a family of faith here at in St. John Berchmans, understanding the announcement of the arrival of Christ, our Lord. The great Christmas party is approaching which celebrates the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ in Bethlehem and in each of our hearts. We must open our hearts and allow Jesus to lead us to proclaim the Word and to work together helping the needy, the sick, and the marginalized in our Church and in our world.
Today’s Gospel focuses on faith, love and trust. Joseph had faith in the message of the angel regarding Mary. His love for Mary and his faith and trust in God enable him to say “yes” to God’s will. We are called this Christmas to do the same. May our faith and trust in our God, who came to save us increase and enable our love for God and for each other to grow.
We join the Virgin Mary and St. Joseph, with a sincere desire to renounce everything that prevents our hearts from being born in Jesus so that together, like our Blessed Mother, and Joseph are willing to have as our only purpose in life to say “yes” and to do the will of the Father, and reflect on the mystery of the birth of Christ.
We ask you Lord, your grace on this SJB community, that we might wait in joyful hope for the return of your Son, Jesus, whose birth we celebrate. Merry Christmas to all!
Peace
Deacon Willie Mendizabal

EVANGELIZATION 101 WITH
SISTER DIANE MARIE
St. Paul, in his letter to the Romans, which we hear this week, speaks of himself being “called to be an apostle and set apart for the gospel of God. “ Through our baptism we also have been “set apart for the gospel of God.” During this Advent season we have been invited to ponder our
relationship with Jesus and as we explored, hopefully we encountered him in our lives. During this past week we were challenged to rediscover our God-given talents and accept our call to be missionary disciples. If we have truly experienced his presence, our only response can be to profess the gospel and bear witness to it wherever and however we are called to do so. It is for this that we live and move and have our being. If we have met the living God in our lives, before or during this Advent season, we must not hold back, but surrender to the call to “go make disciples.” If we have accepted Jesus in our lives, we are called to share this gift with our world that hungers for the living God who transforms the lives of all who seek him. “How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of those who bring glad tidings, announcing peace, bearing good news.” (Isaiah 52: 7)
Merry Christmas chosen ones of God!
Epiphany: January 4 and 5 we will celebrate the Epiphany, also known as “Three Kings Day.” Please be sure to take an envelope with the Epiphany blessing when you leave the Church. It is a tradition in the Catholic Church to bless chalk at the Masses for the Epiphany and then use the blessed chalk as a part of a blessing in one’s home in the New Year. Each envelope contains a small piece of chalk and instructions as to how to bless the doorways your home.
SAVE THE DATE! Saturday, January 11, 2020 after the 5 p.m. Mass in the Church Hall. Don’t miss this chance to get to know the members of our parish at one of our most popular events of the year! Join us!

Nuestra Misión:“Arraigada en Cristo y tocada por Su amor y misericordia, la comunidad de San Juan Berchmans encuentra unidad en su diversidad, proclama por medio de la palabra, Sacramento y servicio, que el Reino de Dios esta cerca y declara que todos son bienvenidos en este lugar.”
A letter from the Pastor
Querida familia de SJB:
Hoy celebramos el cuarto domingo de Adviento, y a medida que nos acercamos a la Navidad, las lecturas de este domingo nos permiten ver claramente el misterio de la Encarnación.
Una vez más nos reunimos como una familia de fe aquí en San Juan Berchmans, entendiendo el anuncio de la llegada de Cristo, nuestro Señor. Se acerca la gran fiesta de Navidad, celebramos el nacimiento de nuestro Señor Jesucristo en Belén el cual esperamos con alegría en cada uno de nuestros corazones. Debemos abrir nuestros corazones y permitir que Jesús nos guíe a proclamar la Palabra y a trabajar juntos ayudando a los necesitados, los enfermos y los marginados en nuestra Iglesia y en nuestro mundo.
El Evangelio de hoy se centra en la fe, el amor y la confianza. José tenía fe en el mensaje del ángel con respecto a María. Su amor por María y su fe y confianza en Dios le permitieron decir “sí” a la voluntad de Dios. Todos estamos llamados esta Navidad a hacer lo mismo. Que nuestra fe y confianza en nuestro Dios, que vino a salvarnos, aumente y permita que nuestro amor por Dios crezca y así poder amar a los demás.
Nos unimos a la Virgen María y a San José, con un sincero deseo de renunciar a todo lo que impida que nuestros corazones se acerquen a Jesús para que juntos, como nuestra Santísima Madre, y San José estemos dispuestos a tener como nuestro único propósito en la vida decir “si” y hacer la voluntad del Padre, y reflexionar sobre el misterio del nacimiento de Cristo.
Te pedimos Señor, tu gracia en esta comunidad de SJB, que podamos esperar con un anhelo alegre el regreso de tu Hijo, Jesús, cuyo nacimiento celebramos. ¡Feliz Navidad a todos!
Paz
Diácono Guillermo Mendizábal

EVANGELIZACION 101 CON LA HERMANA
DIANE MARIE
Esta semana escuchamos a San Pablo en su carta a los romanos, donde habla de sí mismo de haber “sido llamado por Dios para ser apóstol y elegido por Él para proclamar su evangelio”. A través de nuestro bautismo también nosotros hemos sido “elegidos por Él para el evangelio” de Dios.” Durante esta temporada de Adviento se nos ha invitado a reflexionar sobre nuestra
relación con Jesús y mientras exploramos, con suerte lo encontramos en nuestras vidas. Durante la semana pasada tuvimos el desafío de redescubrir nuestros talentos que Dios nos ha dado y aceptar nuestro llamado a ser discípulos misioneros. Si realmente hemos experimentado su presencia, nuestra única respuesta puede ser profesar el evangelio y dar testimonio de él donde y cuando sea necesario hacerlo. Es por esto que vivimos, nos movemos y tenemos nuestro ser. Si nos hemos encontrado con el Dios viviente en nuestras vidas, antes o durante esta temporada de Adviento, no debemos contenernos, sino responder al llamado de “ir a hacer discípulos”. Si hemos aceptado a Jesús en nuestras vidas, estamos llamados a compartir este regalo con nuestro mundo que tiene hambre del Dios vivo que transforma la vida de todos los que lo buscan. “ Qué hermosos son, sobre los montes, los pies del que trae buenas nuevas; del que proclama la paz,
del que anuncia buenas noticias,. (Isaías 52: 7)
