ADVENT WREATH PRAYERS

Second Week– Purple Candle

Jesus, John the Baptist told the people, “If you

have two coats, give one to someone who

doesn’t have any. If you have food, share it with someone

else.” As we light this candle, we remember that you bring

the light of service into our lives. May your Word be al-

ways in our minds, on our lips, and in our hearts. Amen.

CHRISTMAS MASS SCHEDULE

December 24th, 7:00pm

December 25th, 9:30am

St. Vincent de Paul is having a chili/corn bread fund

raiser after Mass on December 16. Please join us in the

their journey a little easier.

CHRISTMAS POINSETTIAS

Ss Cosmas and Damian will again honor our lost but not

forgotten loved ones starting this week with our Poinsettia

Drive. You can contribute to the memory of a lost friend

or family member by purchasing a Poinsettia. Following

Christmas, you are welcome to take a Poinsettia home.

Questions, see or call Mary Hove, 360-889-0115.

STEWARDSHIP

Our parish is grateful to the many parishioners who

answered God’s call to serve others by returning their

Stewardship of Treasure/Talent Commitment flyers. For

those who are still discerning, it is not too late to make a

commitment. Many who serve in our parish have told us

that they receive far more than they give in personal

satisfaction and spiritual growth. We pray that you too

might be blessed with joy through the sharing of your

Treasure/Talents and that you return your Commitment

flyer to the parish office or in the collection basket.

CHRISTMAS TOY BOX!!

Our Emmanuel Food Pantry is

joining hands another year with

the Sumner community, police

and fire departments and

Sumner-Bonney Lake School

District to help families in need

this Christmas. Families will be able to sign up for

gifts for their children through their school

counselor and then come to the Old Cannery

warehouse on Friday, December 14th, 10:00am-

6:00pm, or Saturday, December 15, 9:00am-

noon, to pick up gifts for their children.

Emmanuel Food Pantry will set up a mini food

pantry so all families can also leave with food for

a complete Christmas dinner, plus other items.

WE NEED HELP to set up on Tuesday,

December 11, at 10:00am (any amount of

time would be helpful!), and work crews to

give out food on Friday and Saturday.

Interested in helping? Call Arlene at

253-350-4899 or [email protected].

ADVENT WREATH PRAYERS

Second Week– Purple

Jesus, John the Baptist told the

people, “If you have two coats, give

one to someone who doesn’t have

any. If you have food, share it with someone

else.” As we light this candle, we remember that

you bring the light of service into our lives.

May your Word be always in our minds, on our

lips, and in our hearts. Amen.

ALTAR SOCIETY

All ladies of the parish are invited to

join us for our Christmas Party/

Potlucks.

The day group will meet on Thursday, December

13th, in the parish hall (Bldg. B) at 11:30am with

potluck lunch served at noon, followed by a very

brief meeting, and caroling.

The evening group will meet on Tuesday,

December 18th at 6:30pm with potluck dinner

followed by the meeting and caroling.

WELCOME TO OUR NEW CATECHETICAL CORNER!

Each week we will present a

topic or answer a question of

interest to our parishioners.

Advent has begun, and with it

we are in a new Liturgical Year. If you picked up

the Little Blue Book, you read about how we are

in a three-year cycle of readings for our Sunday

Masses. We have now begun Year C. Among

other things, that means we will hear a lot from

the Gospel according to St Luke this year. In the

Journeysongs book, you can read along each

week by turning to the number corresponding

with that Sunday. For example, today is the

2nd Sunday of Advent; you can find the readings

for today’s Mass at #863 (Second Sunday of

Advent – C). Next week’s Mass readings can be

found at #866, etc.

You will have noticed that Father is wearing

violet today, as he did last week. Violet, or

purple, is the color associated with the season of

Advent, a color of penitence and preparation as

we journey toward Christmas. Next week, look

for Father to be wearing the rose chasuble

(outermost vestment) since it is the halfway

mark in Advent and we focus on the joy that we

experience as we prepare for the birth of Our

Lord. May God richly bless you as we make room

in our hearts and in our homes for Jesus!

HONOR YOUR LOVED ONES

WITH A POINSETTIA

If you would like to purchase a

poinsettia to be placed on the

altar for Christmas ”in honor of” or

“in memory of” a loved one,

please pick up an envelope from one of the Altar

Society ladies after Mass the weekends of Dec.

08/09 and Dec. 15/16.

The poinsettias are $10 each and checks may be
