ADULT
CONFIRMATION PROGRAM
The Archdiocesan Adult Confirmation Program
is designed for practicing adult (18+) Catholics seeking
the sacrament of Confirmation, who have been baptized,
have received their first Holy Communion, and have
been educated in the Catholic faith through Catholic
Schools or religious education programs.
The Archdiocesan Adult Confirmation Program
will present an overview of the essentials of the Catholic
Faith, focusing on immediate catechesis for the recep-
tion of the Sacrament of Confirmation.
This is a program of adult faith formation that
combines presentations, group discussion, reflection and
prayer. The sessions will cover Sacred Scripture and
Tradition, the Creed, prayer and spirituality, the Church,
Catholic social teaching and meaning of the Sacrament
of Confirmation.
This program is not for adults who are unbap-
tized, or baptized but uncatechized (not practicing
Catholics); who would benefit from participation in their
parish's RCIA process. Pastor's permission is required to
participate in this program.

MISSALETTES
In December we changed over to a one-volume mis-
salette. Matthew Funeral Home generously donated the
covers for the missalettes. Please be aware that these mis-
salettes are to last until next Advent (December 2019).
We ask that you please treat these gently, as we have al-
ready found pages torn out, ripped covers, bent covers,
etc. Thank you.
REV. ANGELO J. MICCIULLA
I would like to thank all of our parishioners for your gen-
erous donations to our parish during Christmas. Your

tinue to stay strong as a family and continue to grow as
one community.

Catechism on the Holy Spirit
by Saint John Vianney
The Holy Spirit is like a gardener cultivating our souls.
. . . The Holy Spirit is our servant. . . . There is a gun; well you
load it, but someone must fire it and make it go off. . . . In the
same way, we have in ourselves the power of doing good. . .
when the Holy Spirit gives the impulse, good works are pro-
duced. The Holy Spirit reposes in just souls like the dove in her
nest. He brings out good desires in a pure soul, as the dove
hatches her young ones. The Holy Spirit leads us as a mother
leads by the hand her child of two years old, as a person who
can see leads one who is blind.
The Sacraments which Our Lord instituted would not
have saved us without the Holy Spirit. Even the death of Our
Lord would have been useless to us without Him. Therefore
Our Lord said to His Apostles, "It is good for you that I should
go away; for if I did not go, the Consoler would not come.”
The descent of the Holy Ghost was required, to render fruitful
that harvest of graces. It is like a grain of wheat--you cast it
into the ground; yes, but it must have sun and rain to make it
grow and come into ear. We should say every morning, "O
God, send me Thy Spirit to teach me what I am and what Thou
art.”
CHAPTER 4: Catechism on the Blessed Virgin
THE FATHER takes pleasure in looking upon the
heart of the most Holy Virgin Mary, as the masterpiece of His
hands; for we always like our own work, especially when it is
well done. The Son takes pleasure in it as the heart of His
Mother, the source from which He drew the Blood that has ran-
somed us; the Holy Spirit as His temple. The Prophets pub-
lished the glory of Mary before her
birth; they compared her to the sun. Indeed, the apparition of
the Holy Virgin may well be compared to a beautiful gleam of
sun on a foggy day.
Before her coming, the anger of God was hanging over
our heads like a sword ready to strike us. As soon as the Holy
Virgin appeared upon the earth, His anger was
appeased. . . . She did not know that she was to
be the Mother of God, and when she was a little
child she used to say, "When shall I then see that
beautiful creature who is to be the Mother of
God?" The Holy Virgin has brought us forth
twice, in the Incarnation and at the foot of the
Cross; she is then doubly our Mother. The Holy
Virgin is often compared to a mother, but she is
much better still than the best of mothers; for the
best of mothers sometimes punishes her child
when it displeases her, and even beats it: she
thinks she is doing right. But the Holy Virgin
does not so; she is so good that she treats us with
love, and never punishes us.
