Daily Reflections for Advent & Christmas
—Waiting in Joyful Hope
Meditation: How do you assess people’s worth? How does your judgment affect the
way you treat them?
Prayer: O God, who alone sees the depths of the human heart, free us from the burden of judging others by false standards and grant us the grace to see and treat
everyone as your chosen child.

Year of Mercy
Jubilee Year of Mercy
In proclaiming the Jubilee Year of Mercy, Pope Francis proclaimed his desire that this Holy Year
be “steeped in mercy,” as we disciples “go out to every man and woman,” bringing the “balm of
mercy” to “believers and those far away, as a sign that the Kingdom of God is already present in our
midst!” (Misericordiae Vultus, 5). In her visitation of Elizabeth, Mary beautifully presents just such
an image. Despite the perils of her pregnancy, not to mention her preoccupations as a young unwed
mother, Mary instantly, unselfishly, “goes out” of herself, hastening far and over dangerous terrain,
to “bring the balm of God’s tender mercy” in assistance rendered to her older relative. Since baptism
and the Eucharist have made us, in a way, bearers of the living Christ within as Mary was, such selfless “going out” of ourselves to be of loving service to others in mercy should especially mark our
Christmas season this Jubilee Year.

CHRIST CATHEDRAL
DRAMA SERIES
ST. MAXIMILIAN
JANUARY 22-24, 2016
Maximilian: Saint of Auschwitz tells the gripping story of the Polish priest
whose legendary actions offer a profound example of Christ-like courage in the face of evil.
In 1941, Father Maximilian Kolbe was arrested by the Gestapo and sent to the infamous
Nazi death camp at Auschwitz. There he was forced into slave labor, tortured, and finally
came forward to offer his life for another prisoner, a married man condemned to death.
Saint Maximilian’s story is dramatic, his message is inspiring, and the production is simple yet
spectacular. In an amazing tour-de-force performance, Leonardo Difilippis creates a face-toface encounter with a saint who proved by his life that “hate is not creative; only love is creative.”
This performance comes to the Freed Theater at Christ Cathedral January 22-24, 2016. For

Año Jubilar de la Misericordia
Cuarto Domingo de Adviento
Al proclamar el Año Jubilar de la Misericordia, el Papa
Francisco exclamó cómo él deseaba que este Año Santo esté
“lleno de misericordia”, nosotros como discípulos vamos “al
encuentro de cada persona llevando la bondad y la ternura de
Dios. A todos, creyentes y lejanos, pueda llegar el bálsamo de
la misericordia como signo del Reino de Dios que está ya presente en medio de nosotros” (Misericordiae Vultus, 5). Al visitar a Isabel, María presenta bellamente una imagen así. A pesar
de los riesgos de su embarazo, sin mencionar su preocupación
por ser una mujer joven sin casarse todavía, María de inmediato, sin egoísmo “sale” de sí misma y a toda prisa avanza sobre
terreno peligroso para llevar “el bálsamo de la misericordia” de
Dios para ayudar a su pariente. Ya que el Bautismo y la Eucaristía nos han hecho, de alguna manera, portadores de un Cristo
Vivo dentro de nosotros, así como María fue, esa generosidad
de “salir” de nosotros mismos para ofrecer un servicio atento de
misericordia a nuestros prójimos, debe marcar especialmente
nuestro Tiempo de Navidad este Año Jubilar.
UN ORDEN NUEVO
“Oh, pequeña aldea de Belén”; un clérigo de
Filadelfia llamado Phillips Brooks escribió este
popular villancico a mediados de los 1800, pero el
profeta Miqueas hubiera podido hacerlo primero.
Miqueas sabía que el tesoro grande viene en estuche pequeño. En la primera lectura de hoy, él sabía
que del pueblito de Belén vendría el Señor.
El escritor de la carta a los hebreos explica que
Cristo vino a nosotros para hacer la voluntad de
Dios de establecer un nuevo orden y ser un sacrificio perfecto. Y Lucas nos dice que Isabel y Juan,
el pequeño en sus entrañas, comprenden que grandes maravillas han llegado con la venida del Señor.
Este es el Cuarto Domingo de Adviento. Mañana celebramos de nuevo el fruto de tu vientre,
María. Como se nos dice en Hebreos, el nuevo
orden de Jesús se está creando hoy mismo. Y como proclama Miqueas, su grandeza llega ahora
mismo hasta los confines de la tierra. Copyright © J. S.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
Congreso Pro Vida y Evangelización
30 De Enero Del 2016 – Mater Dei High School
El Congreso es patrocinado por la Conferencia de Obispos
de los Estados Unidos por su Oficina de La Secretaria ProVida. Es presentado cada dos años para alcanzar a Hispanos y LaƟnos en nuestra Iglesia y hacerles un llamado a
todos a ser tesƟgos de su fe en la vida pública informados
por los valores en los que trabajamos acerca de vida, matrimonio, familia, y migración. Este es el cuarto Congreso y
la primera vez en la costa oeste. Para más información,
llama al (714) 282-6044 o por email a [email protected]. Inscripciones pueden ser transmiƟdas en línea: www.rcbo.org/events/congresoprovida/
Esta semana recordamos a los niños judíos que
fueron asesinados por orden del Rey Herodes en
Belén. Esa tragedia que ocurrió cuando el viejo y
celoso rey se enteró del nacimiento de un nuevo
rey de los judíos. Él mandó a matar a todo niño
que tuviera menos de dos años. El llanto de las
familias que perdieron sus pobres inocentes se ha
convertido en risas en varios países latinoamericanos. El 28 de diciembre en muchas partes es conmemorado como el día de los inocentes que viene
siendo el April Fools Day de Latinoamérica. En
ese día se hacen bromas para burlarse de los amigos. Si la broma funciona al pobre que fue engañado se le llama “inocente”.
La inocencia normalmente se atribuye a los
niños o a los ingenuos, pero en si la inocencia es
una virtud cristiana, de los que hemos sido perdonados por Cristo. Esta inocencia no es ingenuidad
mas bien es la candidez, simplicidad y generosidad
de una persona que conoce bien lo duro que es la
vida y aún así mantiene la esperanza.
