FROM THE PASTORS DESK

Dear Parish Family,

Merry Christmas! As the angel proclaimed tothe shepherds in Bethlehem: Peace on earth

and good will to all! On behalf of the Francis-can friars and Covenant members, the staffs ofthe Mission, Parish, and parish school (OldMission Montessori)-- and all of our lay minis-ters and volunteers, we wish each and allevery blessing of this day and season ofChrists birth and Love! And in a special way,Father Adrian, Father Luis, and I personally ex-tend to you and your families our very bestwishes. May this be for you a time of greatcelebration and joy in the company of familyand close friends.

Close is the key word in todays celebration,isnt it? Through the Incarnation of JesusChrist, our Emmanuelliterally, our God withusGod gets close to humankind. Heavenand earth embrace, the poets tell us. Noneof heavens escalators are going up (today),

reflects the contemporary preacher and writerBarbara Brown Taylor. Everybody up there iscoming down right here, right into our ownBethlehem, bringing us the God who has de-cided to make us his home in our arms.

How can we resist the story of the birth of Je-sus? It is, of course, the great story of theChristian faithand for us as followers of Je-suspart of the greatest story of all time. It is,

in a very direct and personal way, our story,too. The story of our own lives, the story ofour families, of our personal history and en-counter with the Lord. For adults, everyChristmas brings with it memories and reflec-tions of all of the Christmases of our lives. Forchildren, Christmas provides the rush and flush


3/12

of excitementthe very real and intense experi-ences of sights, sounds, smells, impressions,dreams, and feelings that make an indelible markon ones live. No wonder we take every care tomake sure that every child should have a beautifulChristmas. At no other time in the year is loveour love and Gods Lovemade so clearly present,

concrete, physical, accessible, and real. No wondertheologians call it the In-carn-ationthe literalen-flesh-ment of the Word made Flesh-- ofChrists physical arrival in our midst.

But Christmas is not just another day. And it cer-tainly not confined to the realm of memory, nomatter how beautiful our recollections may be. Itis unlike any other day in that it starts but neverreally ends. The birth of Jesus in Bethlehem is not

just the historic event of more than 2000 yearsago. It is today. Christ is born today! And each andevery day until the end of time. Christmas Daymarks the beginning of the Christ among us whowill never ever leave us, but is with us always. TheSpirit of Jesus born in Bethlehem infuses the worldwith His living Presence a Presence that we asChurch commemorate and celebrate in Word andEucharist every single day. May the Peace andLove and Life of Jesus Christ, our Savior, our Em-manuel, be in our hearts and lives now and always!

Merry Christmas!

God bless,

Fr. Chuck

LIBRARY CATEGORY: PRAYER

What is prayer? Will it help me? How do you pray? Thislarge category in our library offers a variety of books for guid-ance and renewal.

Thomas H. Greens book, Opening to God, A Guide toPrayer, challenges us to transform our daily routine into a lifeof prayer. He first defines prayer & then discusses how Godseeks us & how we can respond to our divine Pursuer.

In Listen With the Heart, Sacred Moments in Everyday Life,Sister Joan Chittister teaches us how to appreciate the sacred

in each moment by identifying patterns of behavior that canlead to a richer awareness. She concludes with a collection ofmeditations on the true meaning of blessings in life such ascommunity and music.

Beginning Contemplative Prayer, Out of Chaos Into Quiet,by Kathryn J. Hermes, is a guide to the 2000 year old practiceof contemplative prayer in the Church. Hermes presents thebenefits and meaning of contemplative prayer in a rapidlychanging society; practicalities such as finding time & how tobetter use it; & various types of contemplative prayer.

CATECHETICAL MINUTEROMAN MISSAL QUESTION

QuestionWhat happened to the Gloria and

why have we not been singing it?

AnswerThe Gloria comes to us from a Christmas Mass of

bishops in the sixth century. So to answer thisquestion today is very appropriate.

The Gloria did not go anywhere; we traditionallydo not sing the Gloria in advent, as we are in a pe-riod of preparation for the nativity when we pro-claim in the Gloria the glory of god witnessed bythe shepherds!

The Gloria is a hymn of praise modeled on New

Testament canticles and as the text suggests it ispreferably sung not recited.

The Glorias text has changed in the new transla-tion. From the original text the more extensive lit-any from the Latin has been restored; we praiseyou/we bless you/we adore you/we glorify you/we

give you thanks for your great glory. These re-stored lines bring the feel of a litany that continuesto grow as the prayer culminates in the last line.

In the next section, the tone reflects a creed with

expressions such as only begotten son and youareseated at the right hand of the father.This fo-cus is to direct our attention on Christ and his rolein salvation.

The last section completes the hymn with a Trini-tarian doxology with a specific emphasis on Christ.

Querida Familia Parroquial,

Feliz Navidad! Como el ngel les proclam a los pasto-res en Beln: Y en la tierra paz a los hombres de buenavoluntad! En nombre de los frailes Franciscanos y miem-bros de Convenio, el personal de la Misin, la Parroquia yEscuela Parroquial (Montessori) -- y todos nuestros minis-tros laicos y voluntarios, les deseamos a cada uno de uste-des todas las bendiciones de este da y de esta temporadadel nacimiento de Cristo y de su Amor!, y de una formaespecial, a Padre Adrian, Padre Luis y yo personalmente leextendemos a ustedes y a sus familias nuestros mejoresdeseos. Que este sea para ustedes un tiempo de gran cele-bracin y gozo en compaa de familiares y amigos cerca-nos.

Cercano es la palabra clave en la celebracin de hoy,no es as? Por medio de la Encarnacin de Cristo Jess,nuestro Emmanuelliteralmente, nuestro Dios con noso-

trosDios se acerca a la humanidad. El cielo y la tierra seunen, los poetas nos dicen. Ninguna escalera mecnicadel cielo subir (hoy), reflexiona la escritora BrbaraBrown Taylor y predicadora contempornea. Todos vie-nen abajo aqu, a nuestro propio Beln, trayndonos alDios que ha decidido hacer su casa en nuestros brazos.

Cmo podemos tolerar la historia del nacimiento deJess? Que es, por supuesto, la gran historia de la fe Catli-cay para nosotros como seguidores de Jessparte de lahistoria ms grande de todos los tiempos. Que es, en unaforma muy directa y personal, nuestra historia tambin. Lahistoria de nuestra propia vida, la historia de nuestras fami-lias, de nuestra historia y el encuentro personal con el Se-

or. Para los adultos, cada Navidad trae consigo recuerdosy reflexiones de todas las Navidades de nuestra vida. Paralos nios, la Navidad les provee la precipitacin y el ruborde la excitacinla experiencia muy real e intensa de mo-numentos, sonidos, olores, impresiones, sueos y senti-mientos que hacen una marca imborrable en nuestra vida.No es de extraar que nosotros tomamos todo el cuidadopara asegurarnos que todo nio deba tener una Navidadhermosa. En ningn otro tiempo del ao es amornuestroamor y el amor de Diosse hace claramente presente, con-creto, fsico, accesible y real. No es de extraar que los te-logos le llaman En-carn-acinel literal en-carne-cin

de la Palabra hecha Carne -- de la llegada fsica de Cristoentre nosotros.

Pero la Navidad no es solo un da ms. Ciertamente, noes limitada a la esfera del recuerdo, no importa qu tanhermosos pueden ser nuestros recuerdos. Es diferente acualquier otro da en que comienza pero en realidad nun-ca termina. El nacimiento de Jess en Beln no es solo unevento histrico de hace ms de 2000 aos. Es hoy.

Contina en la siguiente columna...

Del Escritorio del Prroco Cristo ha nacido hoy y todos y cada uno de los das hasta elfin del tiempo! El Da de Navidad marca el inicio del Cristoentre nosotros que nunca jams nos abandonar, y queest con nosotros siempre. El Espritu de Jess nacido enBeln penetra el mundo con Su Presencia vivienteunaPresencia que nosotros como Iglesia conmemoramos y ce-lebramos en Palabra y Eucarista todos los das. Que la Pazy el Amor y la Vida de Cristo Jess, nuestro Salvador, nues-

tro Emmanuel, est en nuestros corazones y en nuestrasvidas ahora y siempre! Feliz Navidad!

Dios los bendiga,

Padre Chuck

Pregunta sobre el Misal Romano

PREGUNTAQu sucede con el Gloriay porqu ya no lo cantamos?

CONTESTACIONGlorianos llega de una Misa de Navidad de los Obispos

del siglo sexto, por lo que es muy apropiado contestar estapregunta.

El Gloria no estaba includo en alguna parte; nosotros nocantamos tradicionalmente el Gloria en Adviento, ya que es-tamos en un perodo de preparacin para la Navidad, cuandonosotros proclamamos en el Gloria la Gloria de Dios siendotestigos los pastores!

El Gloria es un himno de alabanza modelado en cnticosdel nuevo testamento y como sugiere el texto, es cantadopreferiblemente y no recitado.

El texto de Gloria ha cambiado en la traduccin nueva. En

el texto original la letana ms extensa del latn ha sido res-taurada; Nosotros te alabamos, nosotros te bendecimos,nosotros te adoramos/nosotros te glorificamos, nosotros tedamos gracias por tu inmensa gloria. Estas lneas restauradasnos traen el sentido de una letana que contina creciendohasta que la oracin culmina en la lnea final.

Es la seccin prxima el tono refleja un credo con una ex-presin tal como nico hijo y ests sentado a la derecha delPadre. Este enfoque es para dirigir nuestra atencin a Cristo,y a Su Papel de Salvacin.

La seccin final completa el himno con una doxologa Trini-taria con un nfasis en Cristo.

TREASURES FROM OURTRADITIONAn old joke asks, "What time is Midnight Mass?" The

answer is not really obvious, since Christmas is uniquein having several distinct celebrations. The readingsand prayers vary greatly from hour to hour. The VigilMass hinges on the family heritage of Jesus and hisorigins. The concept of "midnight" predates clock time,and really has to do with a celebration in the hours ofdarkness. Years ago, it was not possible to receiveCommunion without fasting for a full day, so the latehour of this Mass made it possible for the people toreceive. The first Mass after sunrise, the Mass at Dawn,

was once known as "The Shepherds' Mass," and laterMasses set aside stories of Jesus' birth to focus on thekey to the day's celebration: John the Evangelist's ma- jestic theology of Christ's identity as the Word madeflesh, dwelling among us. One feast, four separateMasses. Only monasteries manage the whole round.Parishioners typically take just one entry point into themystery. Yet there is much to savor and celebrate inthe coming of Christ into the world. Christmas is not aday, but a season. You still have two weeks to sendthose Christmas cards before you're officially late!
