Third Sunday of Advent December 16, 2012 Today is Gaudete Sunday, the Sunday during Advent when we pause to "Rejoice" that the Savior is coming. The Holy Father calls this Sunday "Bambinello Sunday," and blesses the bambinelli - the babies - in St. Peter's Square. At all Masses today we bless the infant Jesus figures from your home manger scenes. Also provided on pg. 2 of today’s bulletin and on our website is a family blessing to be used in the home in case you forgot your infant Jesus figure. Finally, next weekend on the Fourth Sunday of Advent, both in the bulletin and on our website, we will provide a family blessing to be used on Christmas day when you place your baby Jesus figure in your manger. We are very happy to share with you this tradition of the Holy Father’s in Rome, and invite you to, perhaps, adopt this as a family tradition in your home.

Third Sunday of Advent December 16, 2012 The King of Israel, the LORD, is in your midst, you have no further misfortune to fear. — Zephaniah 3:15b REJOICE! Today has traditionally been called “Gaudete Sunday.” The Latin tag is derived from Paul’s appeal in the second reading to “rejoice always in the Lord,” and the Latin Mass text based on that reading. The irony and paradox of this Christian joy is underlined by the fact that Paul wrote those words in prison. But from there he could see the progress of God’s work. Is it obvious to us? We feel that this is not the time for joy when there is so much suffering and moral evil. It is interesting, then, that the first reading is from the prophet Zephaniah, who is almost exclusively concerned with gloomy visions of Judgment Day. Today the Church selects the only optimistic text in Zephaniah, in which the prophet has been touched by the spirit of joy. This, we are assured on all sides, is “the season of joy.” Let us recapture that feeling of joy in our lives and reflect it to those who are joyless. Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Years ago, the trick question on religion quizzes would be to name all the liturgical colors, or the colors of the vestments worn at Mass. Rose is a color seldom seen, used at most two days a year. Today, “Gaudete Sunday,” is one of those days. The name of the day is drawn from an opening verse in the old Latin Mass texts: Gaudete is Latin for “Rejoice!” This year’s Gospel certainly reflects that mood as Elizabeth feels her infant within her leaping for joy at the presence of Mary. Mary’s visit to her aged cousin is an act of compassion between women, as two kinswomen who are bearing children into the world share their joy. Some churches retain the custom of having the priest wear rose vestments today, and many will use a rose candle in the Advent wreath. Violet is the official color for Advent and Lent, but many parishes employ different hues for each season, trying to keep them distinct. In medieval times, dye was costly, and poor parishes used unornamented plain cloth for vestments. Dyes were expensive and some colors, particularly purple, difficult to achieve. In England, purple dye was made from mollusks, yielding at best a deep indigo or blue and not the desired violet. Thus, the color of Advent in the British Isles has long been a deep blue, reminding many people of Mary’s presence at the heart of the Advent mystery. That theology is largely unplanned: it’s all because of the clams! —James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

Third Sunday of Advent
December 16, 2012
Dear Children of Incarnation Parish: On Sunday, January 6, 2013, as we celebrate Epiphany, we are reminded of the journey that the Three Kings made to meet the Baby Jesus. They brought him gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. You are invited to share in their journey by bringing baby gifts to leave at the manger during the offertory at all masses. Items such as diapers, bottles, baby wipes, receiving blankets, etc. will be collected for mothers and mothers-to-be at the Foundations of Life Pregnancy Center. (If anyone has not had an opportunity to return their baby bottles from the collection held during October, those may also be left at the manger.) Thank you for sharing the love that is Christmas.
WORLDWIDE MARRIAGE ENCOUNTER WEEKEND
At Noon Friday, Dec.21st Thru Wed., Dec. 26th
It has been said that the greatest gift you can give your children is two parents very much in love with each other. This Christmas, give your whole family the gift of your deep love by attending a Worldwide Marriage Encounter Weekend. You deserve the best and your children deserve your love for one another. Join us on the next Worldwide Marriage Encounter weekend and rekindle and renew the deep love that God wants for you.

Tercer Domingo de Adviento 16 de diciembre de 2012 El Señor será el rey de Israel en medio de ti y ya no temerás ningún mal. — Sofonías 3:15b Tercer Domingo de Adviento. Diciembre 16 2012 Las fiestas de Navidad están ya cercanas, y la Palabra de Dios nos hace una llamada a la alegría cuando nos dice:
«Estén siempre alegres en el Señor; se lo repito, estén alegres». Y sin embargo, para muchos éstas no son
precisamente unas fiestas alegres: la crisis económica, los problemas de salud o familiares, el recuerdo de quienes han muerto durante estos meses pasados, lleva a muchas personas a desear de corazón que pasen estos días. Hablar de alegría, en este contexto, no es lo mas placentero para muchos. Sin embargo, la Navidad es una fiesta para los que nos llamamos seguidores de Jesús, y debemos celebrarla con alegría, pero no una alegría falsa, puramente externa. La alegría que brota aun en medio de las dificultades porque «el Señor está cerca». A pesar de que los problemas y circunstancias de la vida nos agobien, estamos invitados a celebrar esta fiesta, estamos llamados a acoger de nuevo al Señor en nuestra vida. El tiempo de Adviento es un tiempo de preparación para que el Señor pueda estar “en medio” de nuestra vida, de sus circunstancias favorables y desfavorables.
La conciencia de esa presencia del Dios-con-nosotros hará posible lo que san Pablo nos dice: «Nada los
preocupe, sino que en toda ocasión, en la oración y súplica con acción de gracias, sus peticiones sean presentadas a Dios». El tiempo de Adviento es un tiempo para cuidar especialmente la oración, para presentar a Dios nuestra vida y pedirle que sepamos acogerle en ella, como en un pesebre, pobre y humilde.
Esta certeza hará que vivamos la Navidad como una fiesta, con la alegría que merece y que nada ni nadie nos podrá quitar. Los problemas y circunstancias negativas seguirán estando presentes, pero las sabremos afrontar como personas esperanzadas, porque «la paz de Dios, que sobrepasa todo juicio, custodiará nuestros corazones y nuestros pensamientos en Cristo Jesús». P. Jairo
LA FE NOS SUMERGE La fe cristiana no nos separa del mundo, sino que nos sumerge en él.
Servicios de Reconciliación La próxima semana tendremos tres Servicios de Reconciliación en conjunto con otras dos parroquias. Estos son los siguientes: Incarnation el 17 de diciembre, Christ the King el 18 de diciembre, St. Lawrence el 19 de diciembre – todos a las 7:00pm. Les recomendamos a nuestros feligreses que aprovechen esta oportunidad para recibir el Sacramento de la Reconciliación en este tiempo de Adviento.
El Comité de Ministerios de Vida estará llevando a cabo la colecta anual de “Shoeboxes for Seniors”, este fin de semana del 16 de diciembre. Gracias por compartir el amor de Dios con otros y por bendecir a una persona de edad avanzada esta Navidad.
Gracias por su donativo al Fondo para la Jubilación de Religiosos. Una hermana de Pensilvania escribe: “En nuestras oraciones, todas las hermanas recuerdan de manera especial a los fieles de las diócesis que apoyan la colecta [del Fondo para la Jubilación de Religiosos]. Estamos consientes de que sus sacrificios y generosidad han hecho posible esta ayuda [financiera]. Que Dios se lo pague”.
La Oficina Parroquial estará cerrada para las fiestas de Navidad desde el viernes, 21 de diciembre al mediodía hasta el miércoles, 26 de diciembre.
