Christmas is time of joy, peace, love, rejoicing and
thanksgiving! It is also a time of the great Mercy of God
to humanity because the Son of the Most High God was
incarnated through the Blessed Virgin Mary. In the
fullness of time in history, the whole humanity was
restored back to God. Jesus, the Emmanuel, is Lord and
Savior!
Today, we celebrate the Feast of the Holy Family. It is
the family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph. It is thus a perfect
family for Jesus – the perfect setting where Jesus, the
Son of God, raised as human and divine and grew in
wisdom and age.
May the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph be a
perfect model for all families to live in holiness, love,
forgiveness, sacrifice, humility, and unity!
A Blessed, Healthy and Bountiful New Year to all of you
and may your family be faithful and loving forever and
ever!

La Navidad es tiempo de alegría, paz, amor, alegría y
accion de gracias! Tambien es un tiempo de la gran
misericordia de Dios a la humanidad porque estaba

en la historia, la humanidad entera fue restaurada con
Dios. Jesus, el Emmanuel, es Senor y Salvador!
Hoy, celebramos la fiesta de la Sagrada Familia. Es la
familia de Jesus, María y Jose. Así es una familia
perfecta de Jesus-el escenario perfecto donde Jesus, el
hijo de Dios, criado como humano y divino y crecio en
sabiduría y edad.
Puede la Santa familia de Jesus, María y Jose un modelo
perfecto para todas las familias a vivir en santidad,
amor, perdon, sacrificio, humildad y unidad!
Beata, sano y ano nuevo de abundancia a todos ustedes

jamas!
