Page Two THE PARISH AS ONE BODY “If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole body were hearing, where would the sense of smell be? But as it is, God placed the parts, each one of them, in the body as he intended… The eye cannot say to the hand, ‘I do not need you,’ nor again the head to the feet, ‘I do not need you.’ Indeed, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are all the more necessary . Now you are Christ’s body, and individually parts of it. “ (1 Cor. 12:17-25)

(continued) Knudson, danced the Snow Queen and then the Sugar Plum Fairy in the Grand Pas De Deux in the Nutcracker performed by the Nouveau Chamber Ballet at Fullerton College Campus Theatre. Theresa’s execution of both roles was flawless. These three events helped me to be more consciously grateful for all the wonderful opportunities that come my way as pastor.

Last week I helped celebrate the Sacrament of Reconciliation in parishes in our deanery. Advent and Lent are times when these communal celebrations are well attended. This coming week I’ll be helping at St. Anthony Claret and St. Pius V. My special thanks to Fr. Paul for leading our celebration last Thursday and to all who attended.

Please don’t forget that the Fullerton Interfaith Ministerial As-sociation (FIMA) is sponsoring an evening of scripture, prayer, song and reflection on the theme of light at First Christian Church in Fullerton this Wednesday, December 21st at 7pm. This Longest Night Service is especially helpful to those who experience sadness or darkness during the holiday season. However, the impact of this Service can be rewarding also for those who may want an extra lift during the longest night of the year. The address of First Christian Church is 109 East Wil-shire Ave. The telephone number is 714-525-5525. I hope to see you there.

Last Monday the Parish Center was humming with activity as our Knights of Columbus, St. Vincent de Paul Society, parish ladies, and other volunteers sorted through hundreds of food items you donated. They prepared baskets for over 160 patrons of the St. Vincent de Paul Society here at St. Juliana. What a wondrous sight to behold everyone cheerfully moving from table to table patiently filling cardboard boxes and labeling them. Our Boy Scouts and leaders are to be commended for the hours they helped on Sunday as well.

Please remember that we have added another Mass on Christ-mas Eve at 7pm in the church. The full Christmas schedule is published in the bulletin. It is our hope that we can alleviate the congestion at all the Masses. The Fullerton Fire department and the Diocese of Orange prohibit standing in the aisles. We will open the choir loft for overflow. Please cooperate with the ushers.

I extend my thanks to all who contributed a gift to the Retired Religious Collection last weekend. Your donation will be most helpful especially to the religious sisters who are far more nu-merous in old age than the men religious. If you still want to donate, mark your check and place it in the regular collection.

I finally finished my Christmas cards. When I drove over to the post office to buy stamps I recalled a cute story. A woman went to the post office to buy stamps for her Christmas cards. “What denomination?” asked the clerk. “Oh, good heavens! Have we come to this?” said the woman. “Well, give me 30 Catholic ones, 10 Baptist ones, 30 Lutheran and 40 Presbyterian.” See you at Christmas Mass.

In the Joy of Our Faith, Fr. Frank Falco, O.S.M.

From the Pastor ~ This is the final Sunday before our celebration of the solemnity of Christmas. Advent passes quickly in the latter days because of so much busyness. I hope you haven’t been so busy that you have missed daily or Sunday Mass. The Advent readings are

filled with hope, comfort and joy. These three themes have been the foundation of my homilies during Advent. I call them the “gifts of Advent.” Wouldn’t it be special if in all the gift- giving this Christmas season we would include these “gifts of Advent.” I am sure there are those in your circle of friends and family who need a word of hope, a gesture of comfort, or an expression of joy.

Advent hope rouses us to get up in the morning and face a new day. It motivates us to take care of our families, strive to do our best at work, in our marriage and in school. Hope spurs us on to be more patient, turn the other cheek, see the good in others, and make great plans. Advent hope inspires us to live our spiri-tuality in concrete ways.

Comfort, the second gift of Advent, is closely aligned with con-solation. Who in your family or among your friends needs to be comforted, consoled? You may think to yourself that this is Christmas time, who needs comfort? Who needs consolation? We would be surprised at how many friends and loved ones need comfort at this season of the year. Isaiah, the prophet we read during Advent, is commissioned by God to speak comfort to the people of his time returning from a horrific experience of being slaves and exiles in Babylon. “Comfort, give comfort to my people, says your God. Speak tenderly to Jerusalem…cry out at the top of your voice…here is your God! Like a shepherd he feeds his flock; in his arms he gathers the lambs carrying them in his bosom…” To be gathered in the arms of God as we would welcome the arms of those we love and who love us, would be the most profound expression of comfort. Comfort can be as simple as a smile, a gentle touch and nod of the head, a phone call, an e-mail or a note in a lunch box.

The third gift of Advent is Joy. This gift sometimes eludes us. It’s not that we don’t want to be joyful or can’t be joyful, rather we place too much emphasis on material joy….money, finan-cial security, nice things, possessions. We might call that “worldly joy.” Biblical joy is what we are talking about here. Biblical joy is an attitude closely aligned with gratitude. The most joyful people we know are those who are generally grate-ful for all they have or do not have. Isaiah and the exiles re-turning to Jerusalem are joyful because they are free from negativity. St. Paul writes to the Thessalonians: “Rejoice al-ways. Pray without ceasing, give thanks to God.” Paul had joy in his heart because he was determined. St. John the Baptist had joy because he had a goal in life; a mission. He describes this joy, “I am a voice of one crying out in the desert, make straight the way of the Lord.”

Some recent parish events brought me great hope, comfort and joy. Our school children’s Advent program wonderfully por-trayed the Nativity of Our Lord in song, gestures and dialogue with a decided Advent theme of expectation. Our high school ministry attendance at last Sunday’s evening Mass along with the Advent-Christmas party in the parish hall was a rousing success. Theresa Knudson, the daughter of Doug and Jean

PRAYER INTENTIONS

We are approaching the darkest, longest night of the year. For centuries, people in the Northern Hemisphere have kindled fires against the dying of the light, turning away the dark of the winter solstice, and leading the imagination to hope and new beginnings. It is thus easy to understand why these solstice celebrations of non-Christian Europe attracted the annual re-membrance of the birth of Jesus Christ, the Light of the World.

In time the solstice migrated away from December 25, but the Christmas feast remained in place. From this day, a whole sea-son of celebration developed, stretching from Advent through the days of Christmas, and even beyond to the February 2 blessing of the candles, and beyond that to March 25, the An-nunciation, nine months before the next Christmas. Centuries ago, this was New Year’s Day, and many reasoned that it was the date of Adam and Eve’s fall, and the date of the Crucifixion. The message is clear: don’t let your Christ-mas be over too soon. Keep the lights blaz-ing into January, and savor the meaning of the feast!

2012-13 NEW STUDENT APPLICATION THE FOUR PRESENCES OF CHRIST The Second Vatican Council reminded us of our ancient faith:

Christ is always present in his church, especially in its liturgical celebrations. So, each time we come to Mass we experience the presence of Christ in four different ways:

1. Christ is present in the congregation – the people gathered together; 2. Christ is present in the person of the priest; 3. Christ is present in the Scriptures that we listen to during Mass; 4. Christ is present in the bread and wine when it becomes Christ’s Body and Blood.

The more we are able to understand and join in the Mass, the more we will come to love it. The new translation will help us to do that because the words we will now use will say more clearly what our faith is teaching us.

PSA 2011 - A GREAT YEAR GETTING BETTER! We are most grateful to all of our parish families who have pledged to this year’s Pastoral Services Appeal campaign. We have set records in number of donors and number of pledges. As we near the end of the 2011 campaign we encourage those of you who have not joined us in giving to the PSA this year to make your pledge this month and make our Team 500 Com-munity 600. We have met our diocesan obligation of $103,000 and now the balance of all funds raised will come back directly to our parish. Some of the rebate will be used for paying down the principal of the loan on our Parish Center.

We truly are a blessed community of believers, dreamers, and achievers and each of you are a treasure! Thanks for calling Saint Juliana Falconieri your home parish. You can make out your check and drop it off at the Parish Office or go online to the Orange Catholic Foundation.

They look forward to entrusting our parish families and com-munity with their professional and caring services. They do not have any employment opportunities at this time. Hilgenfeld Mortuary is here as they have been for the past 85 years to as-sist our community with any funeral issues. They look forward to being a part of our upcoming Business Expo.

The Knudson family would like to thank several members of our parish family who attended the Nouveau Chamber Ballet Nutcracker in support of Theresa as she danced last weekend.

NOTICE! IRA CHARITABLE ROLLOVER

BENEFITS EXPIRING You only have until Dec. 31, 2011 to take advantage of this spe-cial tax benefit! On Dec. 31st, the tax-code provision that al-lows donors to make a tax-free gift from their IRA account to non-profit organizations will expire.

This special tax break, also known as the “IRA Charitable Roll-over” allows donors to make a direct distribution from their IRA account to a qualified charity - tax free.

If you have an IRA, here are two of the primary provisions to make a tax-free distribution this year: 1.) You must be 70 1/2 years of age or older when distribu-tion is made. 2.)You may give up to $100,000 (married couples can give up to $200,000.) By taking advantage of this opportunity before the end of the 2011 calendar year, you may be able to fulfill your obligation to take an IRA distribution, avoid taxes you would otherwise have to pay, AND make a generous donation to the Orange Catholic Foundation to benefit St. Juliana Parish.

For more information, please consult your financial advisor, visit the “Ways to Give” section of the Orange Catholic Founda-tion website at www.oc-foundation.org or call the Parish Office.
