 FROM FATHER RICH
Our Advent journey is over. We didn't get lost on the way to Bethlehem be-
cause Mary was our excellent guide. She knows the way to Jesus and She brought
us to Him. We entrusted Her our preparation for Christmas on the Feast of the
Immaculate Conception and Our lady of Guadalupe. Thanks to your generous do-
nations the new beautiful statue of Our Lady of Guadalupe is ours and will stay
with us in the Blessed Mother Shrine in the back of the Church.
This weekend we celebrate the Birth of Jesus Christ and the Feast of the Holy
Family. We thank God for the gift of His Son and the gift of our own family. Let us
remember that family is love, and family is forever. Two weeks ago I watched
program called “A Family is a Family”. During this program a little boy was asked
what according to him is the most important in the life of the family. He an-
swered: “I was raised on love and that's all I need”. I pray at the feet of the New-
born Jesus that this Christmas will bring us closer to God and one another.
I pray that Jesus Christ will increase love, unity and peace in your family.
I want to wish you Merry Christmas on behalf of my family, especially my
mom, who asked me to thank you for all your prayers for her, especially during
her illness. I wish you a very Merry Christmas on behalf of Fr. Mariusz, Deacon
Irv, our Seminarian Mark, and our entire staff.
I want to share with you a prayer that you can use praying for your family.

Dear Lord, with Mary and Joseph, you have lived within a family;
Teach me always to appreciate the precious gift of being part of a family.
Christmas Greetings Show me ever new ways to protect and comfort those closest to me, and
from Fr. Rich’s Mom Let me, each day, do something that will say ‘I love you’ without speaking the words.
But remind me also to frequently say those words.
Let me never part from any member of my family in anger.
Prompt me always to turn back without delay - to forgive, and be forgiven.
And let me see your image within each person
in my own family, and in my greater family,
Knowing that in your Kingdom, we will truly be one family,
United by your sacrifice on the cross. Amen.
God Bless! Fr. Rich

Lira Singers
Christmas Concert
of Polish Carols
Sunday, December 26th
at 6:30 p.m.
Tickets may be purchased at the rectory
$25.00 - adult, Children to age 16 - $10.00
We have a permission from the Bishop to host
this concert of religious songs in our church. Lira
Singers is the charitable organi-
zation and the whole profit from
the concert will go to children for
the scholarship so that they can
continue cultivate their culture
and develop their talents. We are
aware that that the entrance to
the church should be available to
everyone, so if there is anyone
who cannot afford buying the ticket, please con-
tact the rectory for the free admission ticket. We
will make sure that the dignity of our church shall
be preserved and this Christmas caroling will
bring us closer to God and one another.
Let us adore baby Jesus in the manger.
God’s humble coming in Jesus would not surprise us if
we knew God better. So no
matter how much we try to
understand God becoming
human in Jesus we will not
be able to comprehend, it
will remain a mystery.
God became human so that we might become more like
God. Jesus if you had not come as a human like us, we
might have had difficulty in believing that God really
loved us. But now we know for sure. As we see baby
Jesus in the manger we reflect on God’s way being a way
of gentleness and tenderness. There is a lack of goodness
and love in the world but God is tender and loving. As we
look on baby Jesus we see that he is the answer to to-
day’s problems. Instead of violence, in baby Jesus we
see gentleness. Instead of selfishness, we see love for
us. Let us ask Jesus to help us to be gentle, tender and
loving with those around us as he was in the manger.
Jesus in the manger, you give us hope. In the darkness of
our world, your light has shone. Your coming in gentle-
ness encourages us to hold out the hand of reconciliation,
to help one another, to work for peace. Baby Jesus, help
us to be people of peace and to spread peace everywhere
we go. Let us pray now for peace.

receive the Sacrament of Confirmation?
