YEAR OF MERCY December 8, 2015 - November 20, 2016
Fourth Sunday of Advent
In proclaiming the Jubilee Year of Mercy, Pope Francis proclaimed his desire that this Holy Year be “steeped
in mercy,” as we disciples “go out to every man and woman,” bringing the “balm of mercy” to “believers and those far away, as a sign that the Kingdom of God is already present in our midst!” (Misericordiae Vultus, 5). In her visitation of Elizabeth, Mary beau-tifully presents just such an image. Despite the perils of her pregnancy, not to mention her preoccupations as a young unwed mother, Mary instantly, unselfish-ly, “goes out” of herself, hastening far and over dan-gerous terrain, to “bring the balm of God’s tender mercy” in assistance rendered to her older relative. Since baptism and the Eucharist have made us, in a way, bearers of the living Christ within as Mary was, such selfless “going out” of ourselves to be of loving service to others in mercy should especially mark our Christmas season this Jubilee Year.
Cuarto Domingo de Adviento
Al proclamar el Año Jubilar de la Misericordia, el Papa Francisco exclamó cómo él deseaba que este Año Santo esté “lleno de misericordia”, nosotros como discípulos vamos “al encuentro de cada perso-na llevando la bondad y la ternura de Dios. A todos, creyentes y lejanos, pueda llegar el bálsamo de la misericordia como signo del Reino de Dios que está ya presente en medio de nosotros” (Misericordiae Vultus, 5). Al visitar a Isabel, María presenta bella-mente una imagen así. A pesar de los riesgos de su embarazo, sin mencionar su preocupación por ser una mujer joven sin casarse todavía, María de inme-diato, sin egoísmo “sale” de sí misma y a toda prisa avanza sobre terreno peligroso para llevar “el bálsa-mo de la misericordia” de Dios para ayudar a su pa-riente. Ya que el Bautismo y la Eucaristía nos han hecho, de alguna manera, portadores de un Cristo Vivo dentro de nosotros, así como María fue, esa generosidad de “salir” de nosotros mismos para ofrecer un servicio atento de misericordia a nuestros prójimos, debe marcar especialmente nuestro Tiem-po de Navidad este Año Jubilar.

YOUR PRO-LIFE MINUTE …
Mother Mary’s View of Life
Mary, the Mother of God, faced an un-planned pregnancy. Her response was and
is “Let it be done to me according to your word.” The truth of God’s Word is most important, before her own choosing or desires. She loves and trusts, placing hope in God’s will above her own. This is the heart of the “pro-life” mindset. Let us be like Mary.
LIFE IS SACRED
