Michael Dallmeier, OFM - Cemetery Chaplain 2 | MISSION SAN LUIS REY PARISH, Oceanside, California—December 20, 2015 FROM THE PASTOR… Peace and all good! Here we are in the fourth week of Advent. To all of you who are visiting this Christmas season, welcome! Know that God loves you very much and we are delighted to have you as part of our parish family. I hope you've had some time to participate in some of our Advent activities such as the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, December 8th, or in our festive Triduum for Our Lady of Guadalupe. At the moment we are celebrating Simbang Gabi and Las Posadas. I'd like to say thank you to the parish and mission staffs, and all our volunteers and ministers who have worked so hard to make these liturgies and celebrations possible. I think it's been a very beautiful time of year. I know as the holidays progress, all of us, including myself, can become more busy than usual. Just trying to manage our normal day to day lives can be stressful enough without all the additional activities that Christmas brings: shopping for gifts, decorating our homes, parties with family and friends, trying to juggle money and budgets and time. If we aren't careful, the peace and joy of the season can be lost as we hurry from activity to activity. But I invite you as I invite myself, to try to take time to reflect on the deeper meaning of this season. If you haven't had the Advent you would like to have had at this point, don't lose hope. It's still not too late. The point of Advent is to slow down and spend some time in prayer with Jesus. We still have another week of Advent. We have many beautiful liturgies planned for Christmas and throughout the season. I hope you find graced moments in your life to participate and reflect on how we live our lives as disciples of Jesus. For all the priests, my Franciscan brothers, the Parish and Mission staffs and ministers and volunteers, and the entire Catholic Community of San Luis Rey, I am wishing you and your family a blessed and happy Christmas. Fr. David The Jubilee Year of Mercy Dec. 8, 2015 through Nov. 20, 2016 Motto: “Merciful like the Father” Pope Francis has said that “Mercy is the beating heart of the Gospel,” and so has proclaimed December 8th through November 20th, 2016 as a Jubilee Year of Mercy. Mission San Luis Rey is one of seven Churches throughout the Diocese of San Diego designated as Door of Mercy for pilgrims to visit during the Jubilee. This Holy Door offers an opportunity for anyone to travel through the Holy Door, in case they cannot visit the one in Rome. The Holy Door represents Christ, who is the door through which we encounter God, the Father of Mercy.

December 20, 2015 - Fourth Sunday of Advent| 3 STEWARDSHIP THOUGHT As we draw close to the Feast of the Nativity, we hear the great stewardship proclamation twice in today’s second reading from the Letter to the Hebrews: “Behold, I come to do your will, O God!” Who is this Jesus? Who are we that we should follow him? Many want him as a friend, a guide, a king, an advocate. We long to see the face of God. Jesus reveals the nature of God, the servant sent to give us new life in Him. Take time to ponder: Do we have the courage to follow Jesus? To show others the face of God? To say to the Lord: “Behold, I come to do your will?” CHILI COOK-OFF Join us at the Knight’s Chili Cook-off on Saturday, January 9, 2015 from 6:009:00 p.m. in the St. Francis Hall. Tickets are $5 suggested donation; includes: Chili bowl and cornbread or taster set. Proceeds from this event will benefit the Parish Youth Programs. Tickets on sale after Masses. A QUOTE FROM POPE FRANCIS “Most people nowadays would not consider love as related in any way to truth. Love is seen as an experience associated with the world of fleeting emotions, no longer with truth. But is this an adequate description of love? Love cannot be reduced to an ephemeral emotion. True, it engages our affectivity, but in order to open it to the beloved and thus to blaze a trail leading away from self-centeredness and towards another person, in order to build a lasting relationship; love aims at union with the beloved. Here we begin to see how love requires truth. Only to the extent that love is grounded in truth can it endure over time, can it transcend the passing moment and be sufficiently solid to sustain a shared journey. If love is not tied to truth, it falls prey to fickle emotions and cannot stand the test of time. True love, on the other hand, unifies all the elements of our person and becomes a new light pointing the way to a great and fulfilled life. Without truth, love is incapable of establishing a firm bond; it cannot liberate our isolated ego or redeem it from the fleeting moment in order to create life and bear fruit.” ― Lumen Fidei: The Light of Faith PARISH LIBRARY NOTES Advent is a time for new understanding, for putting different pieces of God’s revelation together to see the Divine Plan more clearly. Here are some aids for the season and that discernment: Advent Light- Stephen Binz [264.1Bin] provides 30 short reflections for the season. A Child in Winter [Advent, Christmas and Epiphany with Caryll Houselander] - Thomas Hoffman [264.1Hof] shares insight and inspiration for the seasons before, during and after Christmas. Biblical Mediations for Advent and the Christmas Season- Carroll Stuhlmueller, CP [264.1Stu]; The Vigil [Keeping Watch in the season of Christ’s coming] - Wendy Wright [264.1Wri] offers scripture and personal reflections for this season of Hope. SALT & LIGHT RADIO HOUR Lupe Rios Radio Interview Lupe’s radio interview will be broadcast on Salt and Light Radio Hour with host Deacon Pedro Guevara Mann at www.saltandlighttv.org/radio or in various locations through AM/FM radio and on Sirius XM129. Lupe will discuss his music, work at Mission San Luis Rey Parish and his CD: Lupe Rios - Songs of Advent and Christmas. FROM SR. GLADYS LOWE, C.PP.S I wish all my friends at San Luis Rey a wonderful Christmas and God’s many blessings throughout the New Year. I am 101-years-old now and well taken care of and not completely helpless. I still walk with the help of a walker to meals and get around, and enjoy playing cards and bingo. It is very hard for me to write cards and letters, so I send you this general greeting. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Aquí estamos en la cuarta semana de Adviento. A todos los que nos visitan en esta temporada de Navidad, ¡bienvenidos! Sepan que Dios los ama mucho y estamos encantados de tenerlos como parte de nuestra familia parroquial. Espero que hayas tenido un tiempo para participar en algunas de nuestras actividades de Adviento, como la Fiesta de la Inmaculada Concepción el 8 de diciembre, o en nuestro Triduo festivo de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe. Por el momento estamos celebrando Simbang Gabi y Las Posadas. Me gustaría dar las gracias al personal de la parroquial y de la misión, y a todos nuestros voluntarios y ministros que han trabajado tan duro para hacer que estas liturgias y celebraciones fueran posible. Creo que ha sido una muy hermosa época del año. Sé que al progreso de los días festivos, todos nosotros, incluyéndome a mi, podemos llegar a estar más ocupados que de costumbre. Tratando de manejar nuestras vidas día a día puede ser bastante estresante sin todas las actividades adicionales que trae la Navidad: las compras de los regalos, la decoración de nuestros hogares, fiestas con familiares y amigos, tratando de hacer malabares con el dinero, los presupuestos y el tiempo. Si no tenemos cuidado, la paz y la alegría de la temporada se pueden perder al apresurarnos de una actividad a otra. Así que te invito como a mí mismo, a tratar de tomar tiempo para reflexionar sobre el sentido profundo de esta temporada. Si tu no has tenido el Adviento que te gustaría haber tenido a este punto, no pierdas la esperanza. Todavía no es demasiado tarde. El punto del Adviento es reducir la velocidad y pasar algún tiempo en oración con Jesús. Aún tenemos una semana más de Adviento. Tenemos muchas liturgias hermosas previstas para la Navidad y a lo largo de la temporada. Espero que encuentres momentos de gracia en tu vida para participar y reflexionar sobre la forma en que vivimos nuestras vidas como discípulos de Jesús. Para todos los sacerdotes, mis hermanos Franciscanos, el personal de la Parroquia y de la Misión y los ministros y voluntarios, y toda la Comunidad Católica de San Luis Rey, les deseo a todos ustedes y a su familia una Navidad bendecida y feliz. Padre David Gaa, OFM Año Jubilar de la Misericordia diciembre 8, 2015 a noviembre 20, 2016 Lema: "Misericordioso como el Padre" El papa Francisco ha dicho que "La misericordia es el corazón palpitante del Evangelio ", y ha proclamado el 8 de diciembre al 20 de noviembre 2016 como Año Jubilar de la Misericordia. La Misión San Luis Rey ha sido designada como una de las siete iglesias en la Diócesis de San Diego que abrió una Puerta de la Misericordia para que peregrinos la visiten durante el Jubileo. Esta Puerta Santa ofrece una oportunidad para que cualquiera pueda viajar a través de la Puerta Santa, en caso de que no pueden visitar a la de Roma. La Puerta Santa representa a Cristo, que es la puerta por donde nos encontramos con Dios, el Padre de la Misericordia. SACRAMENTO DE RECONCILIACION El Sacramento de Reconciliación que toma lugar los sábado reanudará el sábado 9 de enero del 2016, de 9:00 -10:00 a.m. Mientras tanto, te sugerimos que asistas a uno de las Reconciliaciones Comunales que se anuncian en la última página del boletín.
