4 FOURTH SUNDAY OF ADVENT / CUARTO DOMINGO DE ADVIENTO Men s Group Classes The Men s Study Group with Deacon Bill is Currently studying a series called: The Catholic Faith Explained. The format will be a DVD presentation followed by group discussion. Classes are every Wednesday, until we finish the 20 week series. Come, see and learn more about our faith which we all profess A Catholic Moral Vision A Love that lasts (Part 1) A Love that lasts (Part 2) Catholic Social Teaching (Part 1) Catholic Social Teaching (Part 2) Fellowship (Place to be determined) The Universal Rights of Christ the King No one claiming to be a Christian would, one hopes, dispute the fact that as individuals we must submit ourselves to the rule of Christ the King, but very few Christians, Catholics included, and conservative Catholics among them, understand, let alone uphold, the Social Kingship of Chris Strictly speaking, God alone has rights which belong to Him of His very nature. As human beings we possess only contingent rights, rights which are accorded to us by God. We have a right to do only what is pleasing to God. The fundamental meaning of the word, "liberty," is the ability to act without constrain Angel Tree The Divine Mercy Social Ministry reminds everyone that if you are a registered parishioner of Divine Mercy and need assistance in buying Christmas presents for your children 11 years and under please register at the church office for the Angel Tree.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT We are like the penny, because we have the image of the king stamped on us, the divine king. -G.K. Chesterton The surest sign that God is alive in you is joy. -Father Robert Barron It is the attitude of some leaders of God s people; they continually scold others, hurl reproaches at them, tell them to be quie Madam, take your crying child out of the church as I am preaching. As if the cries of a child were not a sublime homily. -Pope Francis We may ignore, but we can nowhere evade, the presence of God. The world is crowded with Him. He walks everywhere incognito. -C.S. Lewis God s grace and mercy are bigger than the biggest challenge we may face today and the worst decision we might make today. -Father Jonathan Morris To join two things together there must be nothing between them or there cannot be a perfect fusion. Now realize that this is how God wants our soul to be, without any selfish love of ourselves or of others in between, just as God loves us without anything in between. -Saint Catherine of Siena

This tradition was introduced by the Spanish friars to allow the farmers to hear mass before going to the fields early in the morning. Simbang Gabi is also known by its popular Spanish name as the Misa de Gallo, or ``mass of the rooster.'' In the olden days, the church bells start ringing as early as three o' clock waking people up so they can get ready for the four o'clock dawn mass. The Roman Catholic churches across the nation start to open their doors shortly before the break of dawn to welcome the faithfuls to the Simbang Gabi mass. Simbang Gabi is not just a tradition that is celebrated because we need to do so. but it is the spiritual preparation for Christmas, in commemorating the birth of Jesus Chris The Simbang Gabi is also seen as a way of requesting blessings from the Lord, as most people believe that if one completes the whole series of nine dawn masses, wishes will be granted.
