THE EPIPHANY OF THE LORD
JANUARY 3, 2016
LOOKING IN THE RIGHT PLACES
“Appearances can be deceiving,” as the saying goes. As
we celebrate the Epiphany, the “appearing” of the eternal
Word of God on earth, this is still true.
What rapturous foresight must have filled Isaiah as he
wrote the words we hear today. How, for four hundred
years, they must have filled the hearts of the people of Israel with hope for the day when God’s glory would shine on
them. How deceived some must have felt when the glory of
God came to them in the lowliest and humblest of human
lives.
We have many expectations about how the divine presence will appear among us. But we can also set ourselves
up, through these expectations, to miss the divine glory
when it truly appears. We get caught up in looking for the
star, forgetting that the star is not the divine sign, the babe
is. It may take a persistent journey for us to come upon the
true appearance of God’s glory in our lives: Jesus Christ.

Rise up in splendor, Jerusalem! Your light has come, the glory of the Lord shines upon you. — Isaiah 60:1
XV CLASSES!
If you plan on celebrating your XV Anos
Thanksgiving Mass, please contact the parish
office ASAP. We need to know who will attend
the classes. Classes will start soon! Thank you!
“Chalking The Door” is a way to celebrate and literally mark the occasion of the Epiphany and God’s blessing of our lives and home. With time the
chalk will fade. As it does, we let the meaning of the symbols written
sink into the depths of our heart and be manifest in our words and
actions.
A traditional way of doing this is to use chalk (it can be blessed) to
write above the home’s entrance, 20 + C + M + B + 16. The letters C, M,
B have two meanings. They are the initials of the traditional names of
the three magi: Caspar, Melchior, and Balthazar. They also abbreviate the Latin words Christus mansionem benedicat, “May Christ
bless the house.” The “+” signs represent the cross and 2016 is the year.
LOST & FOUND
Please check the lost and found, located in the vestibule. There are lots of
items! In order to keep the church looking tidy, all items will be donated to
local charities at the end of each month.
Don’t forget! There IS RELIGIOUS EDUCATION
this week. See you there!

BUSCAR EN EL LUGAR CORRECTO
“Las apariencias enganan” dice el refran. Al celebrar la epifanía,
la manifestacion del Verbo de Dios eterno en la tierra, el refran sigue siendo cierto.
¡Que sublime premonicion debe haber sentido Isaías al escribir
las palabras que hoy escuchamos! Por cuatrocientos anos, como
habran llenado los corazones del pueblo de Israel con esperanzas
de que llegaría el día en que la gloria de Dios se derramaría sobre
ellos. ¡Que desilusionados deben haberse sentido algunos cuando la
gloria de Dios les llego en una vida humana de las mas bajas y humildes!
Tenemos muchas expectativas de como la presencia divina va a
manifestarse entre nosotros. Pero tambien podemos exponernos,
por culpa de esas expectativas, a perder de vista la gloria divina
cuando se nos aparece de verdad. Nos entretenemos buscando la
estrella, y nos olvidamos que la estrella no es la senal divina, sino el
bebe. Puede que tengamos que persistir en el camino antes de llegar
a encontrarnos con la apariencia real de la gloria de Dios en nuestra
vida: Jesucristo.

Levántate y resplandece, Jerusalén, porque ha llegado tu luz y la gloria del Señor alborea sobre ti. — Isaías 60:1
CLASES DE XV AÑOS!
Si planeas celebrar tu Misa de Accion de Gracias de
XV Anos, por favor ponte en contacto con la oficina
parroquial lo mas pronto posible. Necesitamos
saber quien va a asistir a las clases. Las clases comenzaran pronto! ¡Gracias!
"Poniendo Gis en la Puerta" es una manera de celebrar y literal-
mente marcar la ocasion de la Epifanía y la bendicion de nuestras vidas y la
casa de Dios. Con el tiempo el gis se desvanecera. Igual nosotros
dejamos que el significado de los símbolos sea escrita en las
profundidades de nuestro corazon y ser manifestado en nuestras palabras y acciones.
Una forma tradicional de hacer esto es utilizar gis (pude ser
bendecido) para escribir por encima de la entrada de la casa, 20
+ G + M + B + 16. Las letras G, M, B tienen un significado. Son las iniciales de los nombres tradicionales de los tres Reyes Magos: Gaspar, Melchor y Baltasar. Tambien son relacionados al frase en latín Christus mansionem benedicat." Que Cristo bendiga la casa." Los signos "+" representan la cruz y 2016 es el ano.
CAJA DE COSAS OLVIDADAS
Por favor fije en la caja de las cosas perdidas, ubicada en el vestíbulo. Hay un
monton de artículos! Para mantener a la iglesia limpia, todos los artículos seran
donados a organizaciones de caridad locales al final de cada mes.
No se les olvide! Si habra clases de educacion
religiosa esta semana!!
REPORTES DE CONTRIBUCIÓNES
Si se necesita un reporte para la temporada de impuestos
con una lista de las donaciones realizadas para el 2015,
por favor pongase en contacto con la oficina. Vamos a
tenerlos listos tan pronto como sea posible. Gracias por

¡GRACIAS!

arbol de regalos este ano. Nosotros, como familia parroquial

ayudar con la propagacion del amor de Cristo este ano con los
menos afortunados.

donadas anonimamente. Por favor, pongase en contacto con la
oficina de la Iglesia si usted desea donar, el costo es de $50.
