Meditation for the Week: The season of holiday visiting is drawing to a close. Lights still shine, the manger scene is special today, and unwrapped gifts are still to be seen. The memories of visits, carols and delicious traditional foods are still fresh and happy. But what happens now? Like the magi we have waited, searched and found the Christ. It’s our turn to bring gifts, not the three mentioned in Isaiah and Matthew, but a more precious gift, a more valued gift, the one that the Lord Jesus is waiting to receive from us. It is the gift of ourselves. We bring joy, hope and happiness. Joy - because we have a Savior, Hope - because our world can become better, Happiness - because He has chosen me to bring Him to others. We bring an awareness that this Jesus comes again and wishes to accompany us in this new year. He can’t wait for us to get started. We can choose this route, or just simply take the decorations and put them away to gather dust for another year. The choice is quite clear. “They departed for their own country by another way.” __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

A special thank you to Thomas Hall, Proprietor of “Restore a Stone” for volunteering to clean and restore the statues of Our Lady of Fatima and the three children kneeling before her in St. Patrick’s Cemetery. Tom uses a solution and a two-step process he developed specifically to clean headstones. In addition to cleaning the statues Tom also installed Led solar lights so all four statues light up at night. In the spring all four statues will be painted and sealed. We appreciate Tom’s time and effort, but more importantly his interest in helping St. Patrick’s Cemetery look the best it can. If you are interested in having Tom clean a headstone please call (914) 382-1317. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________

THE EPIPHANY OF THE LORD
First Reading: Isaiah 60:1-6 Isaiah rejoices over the light and glory that will shine upon Jerusalem. He describes how the wealth of nations will be brought to Jerusalem, and travelers will arrive bearing gifts and praising God. Second Reading: Ephesians 3:2-3a, 5-6 Paul explains to the Ephesians that the Gentiles are now co-heirs with the Jews. Through Jesus, they became members of the same body. Therefore, they would receive everything God had promised the Jewish converts if they followed Christ's teachings. Gospel: Matthew 2:1-12 Astrologers from the east came looking for the newborn king of the Jews, which greatly disturbed King Herod. Herod wanted to kill Jesus, and asked the astrologers to return and tell him where Jesus was. The astrologers found Jesus and brought him gifts, but received a message in a dream telling them not to return to Herod.

SOLEMNIDAD DE LA EPIFANIA DEL SEÑOR
La luz hilvana todas las lecturas de hoy. En la del profeta Isaías Jerusalén se convierte en faro para el resto del mundo: “Caminarán los pueblos a tu luz y los reyes, al resplandor de tu aurora” (Isaías 60, 3). Para el autor de la carta a los efesios esa luz llega como una revelación de que todos los creyentes son “miembros del mismo cuerpo y partícipes de la misma promesa en Jesucristo” (efesios 3, 6). Y en el Evangelio tenemos, por supuesto, la estrella. La estrella que marcó el lugar del nacimiento de Jesús. La estrella que indicó el nacimiento del nuevo soberano. La estrella que condujo a estos hombres sabios de tierras lejanas hacia el pequeño niño en el pesebre. Isaías habla de caravanas que atraviesan el desierto y que traen incienso y oro. El oro era apropiado para un rey, pues es un metal precioso usado para joyas y ornamentación. El incienso es una resina aromática que se usa para ofrecer oraciones a Dios. A estos dos regalos los magos añaden la mirra, un aceite usado para la unción, particularmente para preparar el cuerpo para la sepultura. Así presagia o anuncia la Pasión, pues Jesús no sólo es rey y sumo sacerdote, sino también la víctima sacrificada que será ungida con mirra antes de su sepulcro. Al ver a Jesús por primera vez los magos “postrándose, lo adoraron” y “le ofrecieron regalos: oro, incienso y mirra” (Mateo 2, 11). En ningún lugar del relato de Mateo se nos dice que los magos adoraron ni ofrecieron regalos al rey Herodes, pues ellos reconocieron la diferencia entre el rey temporal y el rey eterno, entre aquel que era digno de reverencia y el otro indigno de tal honor.
GRUPO DE ORACIÓN: Todos los jueves a las 7:30 pm en el sótano del salón parroquial MISA DE DEVOCIONES: Los segundos sábados del mes a las 7:30 pm. CONFESIONES: Los primeros sábados del mes después de la Misa de las 7:30pm. EXPOSICION Y ADORACION DEL SANTISIMO SACRAMENTO: Los primeros jueves del mes a las 7:30pm.
