frDear Parishioners, Visitors, and Friends,

t{,rffy Niw Tearl FoLtowing Christmas,

the birth of our Savior, Csd has

given us another new beginning. For most of us, the year that is just about to end has been a combination of joy and sadness, ups and downs, triumph and faiture. As we reflect 0n the year, we turn to Cod for comfort, consotation, strength, thanksgiving and guidance.

'''.|.{ryF

We would like to thanl( you for your presence through the year, especiatly your participation and contributions in making Sts. Peter and Paul a toving and welcoming parish. We thank you for the financial, spirituat, social

chooses to show the delightful communion among them.

Mary sits comfortably in the center of the fami[y, busily collecting water. Perhaps she will wash the cherries or the toddler's dirty hands. Her face, full of serenity and joy, is lost in thoughts that go beyond the work of the present. She is the model of so many mothers who, in spite of challenging circumstances, focus their energy on loving their children and creating an oasis of peace^

Saint Joseph stands behind the Madonna and reaches up into the tree to pull off a branch for the child Jesus. His strong arm and hand extend straight down toward the child as they both grasp the wood from opposite ends-one giving and the other receiving. This simple domestic gesture of providing for the son is strongly syrnbolic of what so many husbands and fathers do on a daily basis. Alongside their wives, they care for their families with hard work.

Iesus shows us that Cod's po\ 'â&#x201A;Źr and lorre are greater than any evil. Teach children that they can talk

to Jesus alrout anyt]ring that happens, good or bad. At the same tirne, stress that Jesus is God and deseryes to be worshipped and,:beyed.

fulfill God's saving plan. It is also

Clearly this w.as a thoughtful teacher. I hung up the phone and decided I would trust him to run his own classroom.
