Pope Francis’ Prayer for the Families of the World
Jesus, Mary and Joseph
to you, Holy Family of Nazareth,
today we turn our gaze
with admiration and confidence;
in you we contemplate
the beauty of communion in true love;
to you we commend our families,
so that in them marvels of grace be renewed.
Holy Family of Nazareth,
alluring school of the Gospel:
teach us to imitate your virtues
with a wise spiritual discipline,
grant us a clear vision
that recognizes the work of Providence
in the daily realities of life.
Holy Family of Nazareth,
faithful custodian of the mystery of salvation:
help us to regain an appreciation for silence,
make our families cenacles of prayer
and transform them into little domestic Churches,
renew the desire for sanctity,
sustain the noble toil of work, of education,
of listening, of mutual understanding and of forgiveness.
Holy Family of Nazareth,
reawaken in our society the consciousness
of the sacred and inviolable character of the family,
an inestimable and irreplaceable good.
May every family be a place where goodness and peace are welcomed
for children and for the elderly,
for those who are sick and alone,
for those who are poor and needy.
Jesus, Mary and Joseph,
we pray to you with confidence, we entrust ourselves to you with joy.
A Message from our Pastor,
Fr. Bob Cilinski
““Heartfelt compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness,
and patience.” ~ Col 3:12
Annual Parish
Offertory
Commitment
My dear parishioners,
The Christmas message brings incredible hope and joy to
the world. The Christmas story continues to happen in our
lives. Christ the Savior is born into our families and into
each of our hearts. God comes as an unexpected gift, an
unexpected child, a holy surprise of God.
This Christ child continues to break down the barriers
caused by sin, to bring reconciliation and healing to the
world. That first Christmas night, heaven and earth met,
and the human family was once again reconciled with God.
Peace was announced by the angels. And we can always be
at peace with God and one another if only we accept and
welcome Christ into our hearts.
I am so inspired by the faith and generosity of All Saints
Parish. There is lots of love in the community and I see the
face of Christ in each family and each person. On behalf of
Fr. Melmer, Fr. Puigbo, Fr. Donelan, Fr. Stephen, Deacon
O’Connell, Deacon Eberlein, Sister Trinidad, O.S.B. and
Sister Ann Marie, O.S.B., I wish you all my sisters and
brothers, a most blessed and grace filled Christmas. Be
assured you will all be remembered in the holy sacrifice of
the mass. May the light of Christ shine on all your hearts.
Merry Christmas!
Love and blessings,
Fr. Bob Cilinski
Pastor

THANK YOU to all the parishioners who responded to
our annual pledge drive. Reflecting on God’s goodness
and the many blessings He has given us, a record number
of parishioners submitted their pledges of support for the
coming year. The new commitment began with the
Advent season. Your donation enables the parish to
continue our mission of bringing the community closer to
Our Lord Jesus Christ through the sacraments, outreach
and prayer.
If you have not yet completed your pledge form, you may
stop by the parish office to request one.
May God continue to pour out His blessing on each one of
us as we approach the New Year, filled with opportunities
for gratitude and grace.
