My Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,�
�
�����������Please accept my pastoral greetings and concern for you, the good Faithful in the Diocese of
Venice. My prayer is that the preparation for the Lord’s coming during this Advent Season will enliven
our hope in the promises of Christ.��
�
Allow me to update you regarding Masses as the COVID�19 Pandemic continues to impact the Diocese
and all of us. Considering the present circumstances of the virus spread, the General Dispensation for
Mass attendance is extended into the New Year and I will advise regarding its conclusion at a future
date. ��
�
� There are some optimistic signs and there are increasing numbers of the Faithful returning to
Church for Sunday Mass. Also, there is greater weekday attendance. Please continue to make every
reasonable effort to return to in�person worship if you are able. With gratitude, I acknowledge all who
have returned and commend those who continue to join the live streaming of Mass due to vulnerabilities
and those who care for them. Further, let us all keep in prayer our brothers and sisters who have had the
virus and their families.��
�
�����������As Christmas and the New Year approach, it is crucial to maintain vigilance regarding safety
precautions in Parishes.�This necessitates scaling back celebrations and holiday related
events.�Unfortunately, it cannot be as it was in the past. Particularly, I underscore the need for the
wearing masks, maintaining appropriate distances, as well as cleaning and sanitizing measures. Parishes
have been encouraged to schedule more Masses for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day than is
customary. Having additional Masses, perhaps at different times or in different locations (Parish hall or
gymnasium), will safely accommodate the potential numbers of Faithful who may attend Mass for
Christmas. ��
�
At this challenging time, let us be united in prayer as we journey through the Advent Season in
preparation for the Birth of Our Lord and Savior.�Be assured of my prayers for you and your family!�
�
�
Sincerely yours in Christ,�
�
�
+ Frank J. Dewane�
Bishop of the Diocese of�
Venice in Florida�

Collection for the
Religious Retirement
Fund is
Sunday, December 13th
�
In good times and bad, senior Catholic sisters, brothers, and religious order priests have dedicated
themselves to service and acts of mercy. Today, they pray for an aching world. Yet, years of serving for
little or no pay have left their religious communities without enough retirement savings. Your gift to the
Retirement Fund for Religious helps provide medications, nursing care, and other necessities. Please be
generous.�

�
As we prepare for the coming of Jesus, we �
remember that Jesus is our hope and our peace.
From the prophet Isaiah, “For a child is born for
us, a Son is given to us, upon His shoulders �
dominion rests. They name Him Wonder�Counselor,
God�Hero, Father Forever, Prince of Peace.” �
� � � � � � Isaiah 9:5�
The November annual collection of canned goods, clothing, furniture, cash and
online donations for our Sister parish, St. Michael’s in Wauchula, was a
success thanks to all of you. When the truck arrived at St. Michael’s Parish on
Sunday, November 15
th
, Sr. Gema had a big smile on her face and her team of
helpers quickly unloaded all the treasures. Thirty�eight boxes of food, $75 in gift cards,
and a check for more than $1700 were presented to Sr. Gema. She was very appreciative. �
�
The Young Vincentians and the Knights of Columbus provided extraordinary help
throughout the weekend. Mark McCabe of C&M Road Builders, Inc. provided the trailer
and delivered our load to Wauchula. �
�
We are grateful for our parishioners’ generous understanding, care, and partnership as you
help us continue the St. Vincent de Paul Society’s mission to feed, clothe, house, and heal
friends in need. �

CATHOLIC FAITH APPEAL
�
As you consider your Christmas giving,
please remember the CFA. Giving to the
CFA expands your charitable reach touching
the lives of many in our Diocese with
ministerial and counseling services and
material needs. Let your donation speak �
loudly of your care of others during this most �
holy season of giving.�
The Children’s Guardian Fund (CGF) and the
Sarasota Technology Users Group (STUG) have
teamed up to collect used laptops. STUG sanitizes
hard drives using a seven�step process to completely
eliminate all the data. Then they refurbish them
and install software that is typically required for
school. The laptops are distributed to area students
in foster� or state�care through the Guardian ad
Litem Program.�
�
Donate an old laptop by dropping it off at the parish
office Monday through Friday from 8:30 am until

Penitential Act�
�
I confess to almighty God and to you my brothers
and sisters that I have greatly sinned, in my thoughts
and in my words, in what I have done and what I
have failed to do. (strike the breast ) through my
fault, through my fault, through my most grievous
fault; therefore I ask Blessed Mary, ever�Virgin and
all the angels and saints to pray for me to the Lord
our God.�
�
Gloria�
Refrain: 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. �
�
Refrain: �
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.�

Refrain: �
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.�

�
Nicene Creed�
I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of
heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.�
�
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten
Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God
from God, Light from Light, true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made. �
�
For us men and for our salvation he came down from
heaven, (bow head) and by the Holy Spirit was
incarnate of the Virgin Mary and became man.�
�
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on
the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He
ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand
of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge
the living and the dead and his Kingdom will have no
end.�
�
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with
the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who
has spoken through the prophets.�
�
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and
I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the
life of the world to come. Amen �
�
Preparation of the Gifts�
May the Lord accept the Sacrifice at your hands for
the praise and glory of his name, for our good, and
the good of all his Holy Church.�

Scripture Readings
Page 13
A Reading from the Book of the Prophet Isaiah�
IS 40:1�5, 9�11�
�
Comfort, give comfort to my people, says your God.
Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and proclaim to her that
her service is at an end, her guilt is expiated; indeed,
she has received from the hand of the LORD double
for all her sins.�
�
A voice cries out: In the desert prepare the way of
the LORD! Make straight in the wasteland a
highway for our God! Every valley shall be filled in,
every mountain and hill shall be made low;�
the rugged land shall be made a plain, the rough
country, a broad valley. Then the glory of the
LORD shall be revealed, and all people shall see it
together; for the mouth of the LORD has spoken.�
Go up on to a high mountain, Zion, herald of glad
tidings; cry out at the top of your voice, Jerusalem,
herald of good news! Fear not to cry out and say to
the cities of Judah: Here is your God! Here comes
with power the Lord GOD, who rules by his strong
arm; here is his reward with him, his recompense
before him. Like a shepherd he feeds his flock; in
his arms he gathers the lambs, carrying them in his
bosom and leading the ewes with care.�
�
�
Responsorial Psalm� � � Psalm 85�
�
R\. Lord, let us see your kindness, and grant us
your salvation. �
�
I will hear what God proclaims; the LORD�for he
proclaims peace to his people. Near indeed is his
salvation to those who fear him, glory dwelling in
our land.�
R\. Lord, let us see your kindness, and grant us
your salvation.�
�
Kindness and truth shall meet; justice and peace
shall kiss. Truth shall spring out of the earth,�
and justice shall look down from heaven.�
R\. Lord, let us see your kindness, and grant us
your salvation.�

The LORD himself will give his benefits; our land
shall yield its increase. Justice shall walk before
him, and prepare the way of his steps.�
R\. Lord, let us see your kindness, and grant us
your salvation. �

A Reading from the Second Letter of Peter�
II Pt 3:8�14 �
�
Brothers and sisters:�
Do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the
Lord one day is like a thousand years and a thousand
years like one day. The Lord does not delay his
promise, as some regard “delay,” but he is patient
with you, not wishing that any should perish but that
all should come to repentance. But the day of the
Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will
pass away with a mighty roar and the elements will
be dissolved by fire, and the earth and everything
done on it will be found out. Since everything is to
be dissolved in this way, what sort of persons ought
you to be, conducting yourselves in holiness and
devotion, waiting for and hastening the coming of
the day of God, because of which the heavens will be
dissolved in flames and the elements melted by fire.
But according to his promise we await new heavens
and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.
Therefore, beloved, since you await these things, be
eager to be found without spot or blemish before
him, at peace.�

A Reading from the Holy Gospel According to
Mark� � � � � MK 1:1�8 �
�
The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ the Son
of God. As it is written in Isaiah the prophet:
Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of you; he
will prepare your way. A voice of one crying out in
the desert: “Prepare the way of the Lord, make
straight his paths.” John the Baptist appeared in the
desert proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the
forgiveness of sins. People of the whole Judean
countryside and all the inhabitants of Jerusalem were
going out to him and were being baptized by him in
the Jordan River as they acknowledged their sins.
John was clothed in camel’s hair, with a leather belt
around his waist. He fed on locusts and wild honey. �
�
And this is what he proclaimed: “One mightier than I
is coming after me. I am not worthy to stoop and
loosen the thongs of his sandals. I have baptized you
with water; he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”�

Prayer to St. Michael�
Saint Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle, be
our protector against the wickedness and snares of
the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray;
and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the
power of God, thrust into Hell Satan and the other
evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin
of souls. Amen�
�
Hail, Holy Queen�
Hail, Holy Queen. Mother of Mercy, our life, our
sweetness, and our hope! To you do we cry, poor
banished children of Eve; to you do we send up our
sighs, mourning and weeping, in this veil of tears.
Turn, then, most gracious advocate, your eyes of
mercy toward us; and after this our exile, show unto
us the blessed fruit of your womb Jesus. O Clement,
O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary! Pray for us, O holy
Mother of God, that we may be made worthy of the
promises of Christ.�
�
Prayer Before Confession�
Lord our God, you are patient with sinners and
accept our desire to make amends. I acknowledge
my sins and I am resolved to change my life. Help
me to celebrate this sacrament of your mercy so that I
may reform my life and receive from you the gift of
everlasting joy. We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen�
�
Prayer for Vocations�
Lord, you call all of us by name to follow your path.
You always bless your Church and guide followers to
become leaders who think of others before
themselves. Mold us in the image of your Son to
respond to your call as Sisters, Priests, Brothers,
Deacons, and Lay servants of the Gospel. Embolden
us all to grow in knowing of you and allow this
knowledge to open our hearts, mind, and souls to
your enduring call. We ask this in Jesus name.
Amen�
Blessed be God �
Blessed be his Holy Name�
Blessed be Jesus Christ, true God and true man�
Blessed be the Name of Jesus�

Prayer Before the Crucifix�
Behold, O kind and gentle Jesus, I kneel before
you and pray that you would impress upon my
heart the virtues of faith, hope, and charity with
true repentance for my sins and a firm purpose of
amendment. At the same time, with sorrow, I
meditate on your five precious wound, having in
mind the words which David spoke in prophesy,
“They have pierced my hands and my feet. I can
count all my bones.” Psalm 22�
�
Act of Contrition�
My God, I am sorry for my sins with all my heart.
In choosing to do wrong and failing to do good, I
have sinned against you whom I should love
above all things. I firmly intend, with your help,
to d penance, to sin nor more, and to avoid
whatever leads me to sin. Our Savior Jesus Christ
died for us, in his name, my God, have mercy.
Rite of Penance, no. 45.�
�
For Peace�
Mary, Queen of Peace, save us all, who have so
much trust in you, from wars, hatred, and
oppression. Make us all learn to live in peace,
and educate ourselves for peace, do what is
demanded by justice, and respect the rights of
every person, so that peace may be firmly
established, Amen�
�
Come Holy Spirit�
Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful
and enkindle in them the fire of your love. Send
forth your Spirit and they shall be created and you
shall renew the face of the earth.�
�
O God, who has instructed the hearts of your
faithful by the light of the Holy Spirit grant that
by the same Holy Spirit we may have a right
judgment in all things and evermore rejoice in his
consolations. Through Christ Our Lord. Amen�
Blessed be the Holy Spirit, the Paraclete �
