From Father Mark Mertes, Pastor:

Make straight in the wasteland a highway for our God! Every valley shall be filled in, every mountain

and hill shall be made low … then the glory of the Lord shall be re-

vealed. (Isaiah 40.5) God and life circumstances and the coronavirus have certainly changed the “landscape” of our lives. Advent makes perfect sense as we say Mara-natha, Come Lord Jesus! I know that I need a Savior to come and guide me and those I love through this time. For our part, we need to make an Advent place where we can meet the Lord. We need a prayer space, a solitary spot, a quiet refuge, a prayer closet……somewhere that is our own where we can let go of all that is swirling around us. For most this place is indoors; for others it could be outside in nature; it may be in our bedroom, our car, our lunch-break….. I invite us to “change our landscape” this Advent. Some ideas: Advent wreaths can be as simple

as four candles placed in a circle. Return to your wreath as you do your daily quiet time.

Enjoy Advent music. I have really been enjoying Advent at Ephesus which is sung by the sisters in Gower, MO.

Take 3 weeks to set up your Christmas tree. Start with a tree and then day by day make it ready.

Scripture Readings for Week of December 7-13

Mon/Lun: Isaiah 35:1-10; Luke 5:17-26 Tue/Mar: Genesis 3:9-15, 20; Ephesians 1:3-6, 11-12; Luke 1:26-38 Wed/Mie: Isaiah 40:25-31; Matthew 11:28-30 Thur/Jue: Isaiah 41:13-20; Matthew 11:11-15 Fri/Vie: Isaiah 48:17-19; Matthew 11:16-19 Sat/Sab: Zechariah 2:14-17; Luke 1:26-38 Sun/Dom: Isaiah 61:1-2a, 10-11; 1 Thessalonians 5:16-24 John 1:6-8, 19-28

Be consoled by the warmth of your home and those with whom you share it on a chilly December day. I light candles to set the mood. (I learned this from my mother.) As our travel plans are modified or even cancelled, pay attention to the opportunities of being together in our homes.

Enjoy the December Feasts of Mary with a daily rosary. Dai-lyrosary.net is a great resource.

Instead of running around like cra-zy shopping and trying to fulfill the perfect Christmas list, watch for the new simpler plan the Lord will reveal for this year.

Let us all prepare a place to welcome the Christ who will surely come!

Desde Padre Mark Mertes: ¡Preparad en el desierto para el Señor un camino! Que los valles se eleven, que las montañas y colinas se aba-

jen…. La gloria del Señor se manifes-tará. (Isaías 40,5)

Dios y las circunstancias de la vida y el coronavirus ciertamente han cambiado el “panorama” de nuestras vidas. El Adviento tiene mucho sentido cuando decimos Maranatha, ¡Ven Señor Je-sús! Sé que necesito un Salvador que venga y me guíe a mí y a mis seres queridos durante este tiempo. Por nues-tra parte, debemos hacer un lugar de Adviento donde podamos encontrarnos con el Señor. Necesitamos un espacio de oración, un lugar solitario, un refu-gio tranquilo, un armario de oración... un lugar que sea nuestro donde poda-mos dejar ir todo lo que se arremolina a nuestro alrededor. Para la mayoría, este lugar está en el interior; para otros, podría estar en la naturaleza; puede ser en nuestro dormitorio, nuestro coche, nuestro lugar de almuerzo…. Les invi-to a “cambiar nuestro paisaje” este Ad-viento. Algunas ideas: Las coronas de Adviento pueden ser

tan simples como las velas coloca-das en círculo. Valla a su corona mientras hace su tiempo de silencio/reflexión diario.

Disfrute de la música de Adviento. Realmente he disfrutado del Advien-to en Éfeso (Advent at Ephesus), que cantan las hermanas en Gower, MO.

Limpieza de la Iglesia La limpieza de la iglesia a sido pospuesta.

Ministerios

SI usted desea inscribirse o informamrase so-bre los ministerios de Lector, Ministro Extraor-dinario de la Comunion, Hospitalidad, limpie-za de los viernes, Coro, o Monaguillo, por fa-vor de mandar un correo electronico a [email protected]. Su parroquia los nece-sita. Si le gustaría hablar con el Padre Mark por favor de llamar al 913/299-3370 en la oficina parroquial. También, si necesitan ayuda en español por favor de llamar al 913/299-3370, ext. 104.

Tómese 3 semanas para arreglar su árbol de Navidad. Comience con un árbol y luego, día a día, arrégle-lo.

Déjese consolar por la calidez de su hogar y de aquellos con quienes lo comparte en un frío día de di-ciembre. Me gustan las velas para crear el ambiente. (Aprendí esto de mi madre). A medida que nuestros planes de viaje se modifican o in-cluso se cancelan, preste atención a las oportunidades de estar juntos en nuestros hogares.

Disfrute de las Fiestas de María de diciembre con un rosario diario. Dailyrosary.net o YouTube son un gran recurso.

En lugar de correr como locos comprando y tratar de cumplir con la lista perfecta de Navidad, esté atento al nuevo plan más simple que el Señor revelará para este año.

¡Preparemos todos, un lugar para reci-bir al Cristo que seguramente vendrá!

Retirement Fund for Religious Collection Sunday, December 13

In good times and bad, senior Catholic sis-ters, brothers, and religious order priests have dedicated themselves to service and acts of mercy. Today, they pray for an aching world. Yet years of serving for little or no pay have left their religious communities without enough retirement savings. Your gift to the Retirement Fund for Religious helps provide medications, nursing care, and other necessi-ties. Please be generous.

Christmas Collection for Catholic Charities

When we feed the hungry and shelter the stranger, we are also serving Jesus himself. This past fiscal year we provided food and shelter to 57,573 people. We provided 88,613 summer meals to children during the Pandemic. Open your hands and hearts to embrace the poor through a gift to the Christ-mas 2nd Collection to support Catholic Chari-ties.

Christmas Flowers In Memory Of …

Checks will be ac-cepted at the parish office or in the weekend offertory through December 18. Please be certain to indicate on your envelope or in the memo line of your check that the donation is for flowers in the name of your deceased loved one. The list of Loved Ones will be pub-lished in a bulletin shortly after Christmas. Thank you for your contribution to add to the beauty of the Christmas season and the Church!
