Dear Parishioners and Friends of Our Lady of Fatima,/
Queridos parroquianos y amigos de Nuestra Señora de Fátima,
The Fourth Sunday of Advent ends the Advent Season and Christmas Day is just
around the corner. The parish will give each family who comes to Christmas Mass
the book “The Four Signs of a Dynamic Catholic” by Matthew Kelly. The Parish
Pastoral Council will distribute these books after the Masses to one member of the
family. Those who read the book we hope will become inspired to be fully committed and engaged Catholic growing in their faith.
The gospel today tells us that Jesus is the son of Mary and Joseph. Mary was betrothed to Joseph when she was found to be with child. Joseph was a righteous man
and wanted to deal with Mary in an honorable and compassionate manner. The
angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and told him, “Do not be afraid to
take Mary your wife into your home. It is by the Holy Spirit, that this child has been
conceived in her. She will bear you a son and you shall call him Jesus because he will save his people from their sins.”
The Hebrew name for Jesus is Yeshua or Joshua which literally means “God delivers or rescues!”
Jesus came to rescue mankind from their sins. This Monday and Tuesday we have the final opportunities to make good
use of the Sacrament of Reconciliation before Christmas. Monday and Tuesday confessions will be at 9am. Monday
evening there will be confessions at 6:30pm.
Con el cuarto domingo de Adviento terminamos el tiempo de Adviento y entramos al tiempo de Navidad la cual está
a la vuelta de la esquina. La parroquia dará a cada familia que venga la misa de Navidad el libro " Los Cuatro signos de
un católico dinámico" por Matthew Kelly. El Consejo Pastoral Parroquial distribuirá estos libros después de las Misas
a un miembro de cada familia. Esperamos que lean el libro y los inspire a ser católicos plenamente comprometidos e
involucrados y crezcan en fe.
El evangelio de hoy nos dice que Jesús es el hijo de María y José. María fue desposada con José cuando supo que estaba en cinta y que daría a luz a un niño. José era un hombre justo y quería tratar a María de una manera honorable y
compasiva. El ángel del Señor se le apareció a José en un sueño y le dijo: " No temas recibe a María como tu esposa en
tu casa. Es por el Espíritu Santo, que este niño ha sido engendrado en ella. Y dará a luz un hijo y le pondrás por nombre Jesús, porque él salvará a su pueblo de sus pecados. " El nombre hebreo de Jesús es Yeshua o Josué que literalmente
significa" Dios libera o rescates! "
Jesús vino a la humanidad para rescatar sus pecados. Este lunes y el martes tenemos las últimas oportunidades de
hacer un buen uso del sacramento de la Reconciliación antes de Navidad. Lunes y martes habrá confesiones a las 9 am.
Y el lunes por la noche habrá confesiones a las 6:30 pm.
