From the Pastor --
Come, O long expected Jesus, Born your people to deliver,
Born to set your people free; Born a child, and yet a king;
From our fears and sins release us; Born to reign in us forever,
Christ, in you our rest shall be. Now your gracious kingdom bring.
Israel’s strength and consolation, By your own eternal Spirit
Hope to all the earth impart; Rule in all our hearts alone;
Dear desire of ev’ry nation, By your all sufficient merit
Enter ev’ry longing heart. Raise us to your glorious throne.
(Come, O Long Expected Jesus - Advent Hymn)
The Christmas lights are already up in Whitestone Village and throughout the city; stores offer
Christmas sales amid stores decorated for the “Holiday Season”’ Christmas music can be heard on the radio;
gifts are being bought; Christmas Cards written - and some already mailed and all before Thanksgiving.
So...what happened to Advent? The joyful Season of Advent begins on Sunday, November 29. This
season of gladness is meant to open hearts and minds to the Lord Jesus. As we remember in profound
gratitude the birth of our savior in Bethlehem of the Virgin Mary, Advent reminds us to prepare to receive
the Lord when He comes again in glory and majesty - at a time unknown to establishment the fullness of
God’s kingdom. Advent also challenges us to be ready to open the door of our hearts to Jesus as He comes
to us NOW!
And so back to the hectic pace of the weeks before Christmas. Rather than spend time condemning,
why not try to do all that we do in prayer - as a way to open hearts to the presence of the Lord who comes in
love. Advent/Christmas is a beautiful and joyful time. Let us not allow the “things” we must do stress us
and burden us. Do them as a gift to honor the birthday of Christ the Lord.
Next Sunday - November 22nd - is the Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ the King! As a new
liturgical year begins, let our prayer be for a year of blessings - especially the blessing of peace and good
health.
Remember the Reason for the Season …..Jesus.
God bless.
Let us pray for one another,

GIFTS FROM BETHLEHEM
Olivewood Handcrafted from the Holy Land
A Traditional Art and Livelihood for Holy Land Christians
The handicrafts trade evolved as a cultural tradition of Christians in the Holy Land for
centuries. This indigenous form of art has since become an industry of great importance to
the local people of the Holy Land who rely on it for livelihood, and to Christian pilgrims from
all around the world whose holy pilgrimage can be memorialized for a lifetime in cherished
olive wood or mother of pearl souvenirs. The olive wood carving market is the major source
of income in the Bethlehem area. More than 65 percent of the income of the community in
Bethlehem comes from this work.
In recent years, however, the holy crafts trade has suffered many hardships due to
social and economic pressures. Because of a sharp fall in tourism and also as a result of
diminishing numbers of craftsmen who leave their traditional trade and emigrate due to the
difficult conditions in their homeland, the Holy Land handicraft market is facing serious
danger, and so is the Christian community in the Land.
On the weekend of November 28 & 29 our parish will host an Olivewood Carving
Event by Gifts from Bethlehem. The sale of articles will take place after all the Masses in
the Pastoral Center. Please stop by and support the Christian Community in the Holy
Land.

YOUTH GROUP MINISTRY
This past Saturday, November 7, nine from our St. Luke Youth Group along with
Youth Group Leaders, parents and Fr. Peter went and experienced an amazing and uplifting
trip to the Missionary Sisters of Charity Soup Kitchen located in the Bronx. By the direction
of Sr. Christina, who was so welcoming and helped the youngsters to have a great experience.
The Youth Group was put into full action to see actual hands on how a soup kitchen operates
and how it serves those most in need. As the saying goes, “A picture is worth a thousand
words”. You can see by the pictures how our wonderful youth spent the day at the soup
kitchen. After it was all done we ended our day in the sisters’ chapel praying with them and
giving thanks to God for blessing us with such an amazing experience of His love for us and
others. I thank the youth that were present and the leaders and parents for
saying Yes to the call of serving those most in need.

Math

Tech-
nology in 4th Grade
The fifth grade hasn’t been the only class enjoying the new
Chromebooks (thank you once again to our very generous
donors!); the 4th grade has been able to use these new
additions in their Math classes. Using a website called
Socrative (www.socrative.com) we have been able to create
online quizzes for the students to test their Math skills. The
students can see their results on the interactive whiteboard as
soon as they answer a question, and are able to see the
percentage of correct answers. This helps both the students
and the teacher!
While it may sound as if the students are simply taking
a traditional quiz (only on the computer), it soon became a
game to the 4th grade. They cheered each other on as they
watched their friends’ names pop up after they answered the
question. They made sure that their work was done quickly
but accurately so that they could get the correct answer. The
students questioned why an answer they received was wrong
and pressed for an explanation so that they could get it right
next time.
Math class with the Chromebooks has become
a fun, interactive class where the students are
able to challenge themselves and find a love for
Mathematics that they didn’t know they had.

Saint Luke School
Is Following In Pope Francis’ Footsteps
“The Lord was able to invite others to be
attentive to the beauty that there is in the world
because he himself was in constant touch with nature,
lending it an attention full of fondness and wonder.”
– Pope Francis
Inspired by Pope Francis, Saint Luke School spent the day before Halloween very differently than you
would imagine. Yes, of course we celebrated with candy, goodies, and maybe a few dances to the Monster
Mash. But, our day’s mission was specifically focused on helping those in need. On Friday, October 30th, 8th
Grade teacher Mrs. Volpe, organized for our students to have a “SAVE THE PAWS” two-dollar dress down
day. Students were asked to wear either a pink or gray shirt. Why pink and gray you might ask?
Pink and gray symbolized the colors of Second Chance Rescue’s logo. Second Chance Rescue was
formed in 2009 on the belief that all animals deserve to be loved and cared for. This rescue is a 100% non-
profit organization that rescues dogs and cats from the streets and “death row” in New York City. Most of the
animals rescued are stray, have been abandoned, abused or neglected, or have serious medical issues and re-
quire immediate emergency veterinary care.
Thanks to some help from our very own Nursery teacher Mrs. O’Neill, who is the Vice President of
Second Chance Rescue, our students were able to raise over $1,600! All the proceeds, including Second
Chance t-shirt sales, went to the rescue to help save these precious animals! Saint Luke School will continue
to follow in Pope Francis’ footsteps as we shortly begin our Church’s holy year of mercy on December 8th.
St. Luke School’s Junior High students represent Mrs. Volpe’s 8th grade girls recreated Second Chance’s logo!
Second Chance with their brand new t-shirts!
Since SECOND CHANCE does not have a physical shelter, most of their rescues are place in loving foster
homes or private boarding facilities as they wait their forever homes. If anyone is interested in fostering or
adopting a dog or cat or would like more information, please contact the rescue at:
