12/20/14 simbang gabi mass & celebration, st margaret mary lomita
12/20/14 simbang gabi mass & celebration, st margaret mary lomita...around Los Angeles a lot of catholic churches celebrate the filipino tradition of simbang gabi "Simbang Gabi ("Night Mass"; Spanish: Misa de Gallo, "Rooster's Mass") is a novena of dawn Masses from 16 December to Christmas Eve. The Simbang Gabi is practised mainly by Catholic and Aglipayans, with some Evangelical Christian and independent Protestant churches having adopted the practise of having pre-Christmas dawn services. Attending the Masses is meant to show devotion to God and heightened anticipation for Christ's birth, and folk belief holds that God grants the special wish of a devotee that hears all nine Masses. Morning observance of Simbang Gabi begins as early as 03:00 PST, while in some parishes, anticipated Masses begin the previous evening at 20:00 PST. After hearing Mass, Catholic families buy traditional Filipino holiday fare for breakfast outside the church and eat it either within the
church precincts or at home. Vendors offer many native delicacies, including bibingka (rice flour and egg-based cake, cooked using coal burners above and under); putò bumbóng (a purple, sticky rice delicacy steamed in bamboo tubes, buttered then sprinkled with brown sugar and shredded dried coconut meat). Drinks include coffee, salabát (a ginger infusion) and tsokoláte (thick, Spanish-style hot chocolate). Some Aglipayan churches invite the congregation to partake of the "paínit" (literally, "heater"), a post-Mass snack of mostly rice pastries served with coffee or cocoa at the house of the Mass sponsor..." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_in_the_Philippines
...here's the IRONY about being an angloAmerican (ie "white guy" ) celebrating simbang gabi with mostly Filipinos. Some of them look at me as if to say "What's this white guy doing here with us?" (by the way, amongst some minority communities in southern California there is sometimes negative stereotyping of single white guys
who don't have any obvious title/garb such as priest ...things I wish I could tell them before they negatively stereotype me: Yes, I do have a Christian tradition..I grew up in the historic Christian Reformed Church; & yes I am committed to the faith and do have a higher educational degree (BA/BA/M.Div), ...and even more, I actually DID mission work in the Philippines...and the Filipinos were nice to me there than they are sometimes here in the United States! And I try to attend some of the Filipino church services because I truly care about you as a group and individually, and keep the country and people of the Philippines in my prayers. I truly care about you. Do you care about me?

Christmas concert @ St. VIncent Depaul, Huntington Beach
12/19/14 re Christmas concert, st vincent de paul church, east huntington beach (not near the ocean...)...nice concert,...one thing that bothered me was that when the offering plate came to our row..I had a check in hand to put
in the plate but the deacon made a point of emptying the plate before passing it down our row...; also the priest is a bit overbearing...I think he's a nice guy but he is very large & doesn't need the robe & all the effects to impress or even intimidate..; think of protestant churches where most pastors just wear suits, or in some cases not even suits, but let their shirt hang out casual style (ie rick warren et al)...; i sense a bit of a corporate problem at this church even though the music and concert was nice enough..so we pray, Lord, for your presence at st vincent de paul huntington beach ...may the priest and his staff be filled with the fruits of the Spirit and trust You with all their heart, mind, and soul...and may they faithfully lead the parishioners in the faith ...for the kingdom !

CHristmas concert, peninsula community church, palos verdes
\
sort of a hipster concert...not the audience but the performers..had that hipster vibe to them...and clearly they had "profiled" the audience as wealthy white suburban palos verdes residents who probably didn't know or care much about poor people and minorities...there was a tone of "in your face" to their production...I felt sorry for the palos verdes audience...they must get a LOT of this from clergy and visiting productions... it was a bit TOO much for me to stomach..
