From our Pastor... Parish Family – no Pastor likes to talk about money – trust me, it’s something we all consider as one of the hardest parts of being a Pastor – it’s not something that they teach us how to address in seminary, but talk about it we must. Thank you to all of you who have been faithful
to our parish in every way – sharing your talents, helping us out financially – even when you weren’t able to come to Mass, you continued to give! As you heard earlier this month, we are not having our Night of Entertainment this year! That revenue goes directly into our op-erating budget, which includes heating, water, and other neces-sary supplies for our parishioners, students and staff. We need and rely on that revenue. I am asking everyone here to prayerfully consider increasing your weekly offering, even by $1.00 a week. For those that typi-cally don’t think they can afford to give to the church – I would particularly ask you to prayerfully consider giving. You can start with a little each week. I’m not asking for big sacrifices. Every-thing we have is a gift from God and He will not be outdone in generosity. Can you trust God? God IS faithful. Our parish has been here 143 years – throughout that time, the parish has experienced hunger, pandemics, the Great Depression, wars, 9-11, but throughout all these hardships our parishioners did not waiver – we pulled together! Let’s continue to “pull to-gether” to build up our parish and each other – with our gifts of time, talent and treasure!
Blessings!
PARISH OFFICE HOURS CHANGE St. Bon’s Parish office will close at noon every Fri-day. Our Monday – Thursday office hours will con-tinue, 8:30 a.m. – Noon and 1:00 – 4:30 p.m. Fridays, 8:30 a.m. – noon.
HOLIDAY CO-OP The Holiday Co-op giving trees will be up Saturday, Nov. 28 through Sunday, Dec. 06. Giving Trees will be adorned with stars of people in our community in hopes of having a Merry Christmas. Please 'adopt' a star (or stars) and spend around $45/each with things off the wish list. Return unwrapped gifts to the Church Office by Monday, Dec. 7 in order for the gifts to be distributed before Christmas time. Attach the star to the items you purchase. Questions call Shelli Naughton at 402-276-4728.
NEW LITURGICAL YEAR Our new Breaking Bread missalettes are availa-ble. If your household would like to request a copy, please call the church office at 402-564-7151 or email [email protected]. You will be respon-sible for keeping your book, bringing it to Mass and taking it home again!
ADORERS NEEDED We are in desperate need of ador-ers so that Jesus is not left unat-tended. Our parish has had Per-petual Adoration since 1961. We need to continue our beautiful tradition. Covid-19 has made our adorers fearful and many are mak-ing the choice not to come to at-tend Jesus. The Scotus chapel is safe, clean and you are easily able to social distance as there are very few or limited attendance. Please
consider taking an hour to be with Jesus. If you cannot take an hour would you consider being a substitute adorer? We promise it will change your life and bring you closer to Our Lord. If you want to visit Jesus, He is always in the church (doors are un-locked between 6:00am - 7:00pm) but only exposed perpetually in the Scotus Chapel.

ADVIENTO Por: Padre Jairo Congote
Este domingo comienza el Adviento litúrgico, que durará hasta el día de Navidad. El Adviento litúrgico es el tiempo que la Iglesia quiere que los
cristianos lo dediquemos a prepararnos para conmemorar digna-mente el aniversario de la venida de nuestro Señor Jesucristo al mundo, acontecimiento que, como sabemos, ocurrió hace ya dos mil diecisiete años. El Adviento litúrgico se refiere, naturalmente, a la preparación litúrgica. El color morado que usamos en las celebraciones de Adviento significa preparación y penitencia, porque queremos llegar a la Navidad con el alma limpia. También es propia de este tiempo la que llamamos “corona de Adviento”, que son las cuatro pequeñas velas de esta corona, que significan la luz de Cristo que debe alumbrar nuestro camino hasta el día de Navidad. Tres de estas velas son de color morado, penitencia, y una de color rosado, alegría propia del tercer domingo, domingo Gaudete, por la alegría que nos proporciona la cercanía de la Na-vidad. Frente a este Adviento litúrgico está el Adviento espiritual que a nosotros nos dura toda la vida, porque toda la vida es tiempo de preparación para encontrarnos definitivamente con Cristo, cuando Dios nos llame a su lado. Las lecturas bíblicas de estos cuatro domingos del Adviento litúrgico se refieren al Adviento espiri-tual, tiempo de preparación para la llegada del Reino de Dios, de la parusía, tal como lo entendieron los judíos, durante siglos. El color propio de este Adviento espiritual sería el color verde, que significa esperanza. De hecho, el color verde es el color que usa-mos en la liturgia durante todo el tiempo ordinario, porque, como hemos dicho, toda nuestra vida es preparación y esperanza en nuestra Pascua definitiva, junto a Cristo, que ocurrirá después de nuestra muerte. Nuestro Adviento litúrgico debe ser, también, un recuerdo del largo Adviento judío, que duró siglos, esperando al Mesías. Comencemos, pues, nosotros hoy nuestro corto Adviento litúrgico, sin olvidar que toda nuestra vida es un Adviento espiri-tual en preparación para la muerte. Un tiempo en el que deben predominar las virtudes de penitencia interior, lucha contra el pecado, y esperanza en que la presencia redentora de Cristo nos salvará, siendo la luz y el camino que nos guiará hasta nuestro encuentro definitivo con Dios nuestro Padre. Vigilemos, pues, y oremos durante todo este tiempo y durante toda nuestra vida para que, cuando Dios nos llame, nos encuentre bien preparados, por-que no sabemos ni el día, ni la hora en los que va a ocurrir este encuentro. Tú eres, Señor, nuestro Padre, nosotros la arcilla y tú el alfare-
ro; somos todos obra de tu mano. En este primer domingo de Ad-viento podemos y debemos decir, con el profeta Isaías, que Dios nos ama y nos gobierna como un padre y un pastor que aman a sus ovejas y las dirige hacia fuentes tranquilas. El profeta Isaías es el cantor de nuestra esperanza en un Dios misericordioso, en
un Dios redentor, en un Dios Padre, en un Dios alfarero que quie-re hacernos dignos hijos suyos. Pero para que esto pueda ocurrir nosotros debemos dejarnos hacer y rehacer por Dios, como la arcilla se deja formar y transformar por las manos del alfarero. Ninguna preparación mejor que esta podemos hacer en estos cua-
tro domingos del tiempo litúrgico de Adviento. Pidamos a Dios que nos preparemos para el día de Navidad dejándonos formar y transformar por las manos misericordiosas de un Dios que quiere ser nuestro Padre, nuestro redentor, nuestro pastor supremo y el
alfarero de nuestras vidas. LEAVING A LASTING LEGACY
You can leave a gift to our parish by naming us in your will as the recipient of the residuary after all your family and friends have been taken care of. For questions Tony LaMar, Legacy Planning Officer, Archdiocese of Omaha at 402-557-5650 or [email protected].
