Manassas, Virginia ALL SAINTS CATHOLIC CHURCH December
Manassas, Virginia ALL SAINTS CATHOLIC CHURCH This year of 2015-2016, our parish theme is I know well the plans I have in mind for you, says the LORD, … plans to give you a future full of hope. Jer 29:11 All Saints is a tithing parish, giving of our time, talent, and treasure so as to give glory to God. Today we have the opportunity to reflect upon family life. Whether we look at our families of origin or families of which we are now a part, through marriage, we find that family life touches all of us. Family life is something practical yet mysterious, something beautiful yet challenging, something very down to earth yet giving us relationships of eternal value. It is a place of celebration and a place of growth, even transforming suffering at times. We are brought into this world without our choice and brought into a family. It is through this set of relationships of father, mother, and children, that we find ourselves learning how to live and grow with others. None of us has the perfect family. (If you did, then you have probably died and gone to heaven!) The Holy Family of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, shows us the value and the power of human relationships touched by grace. Jesus became incarnate so that we would be able to see our God with a human face. Just as we are taught to gaze upon the face of Christ, in order to know Christ, we can gaze upon the face of Mary and the face of Joseph. In this gaze, we discover that they also were people who knew the dignity of everyday ordinary work. They were people sharing their joys and sorrows in the family. Each new year is a time to give thanks for the past and look forward to the new, in hope. May the Lord bless you in this coming new year with peace and good health. May God bless all of you in this New Year!

What have you done for your marriage today? New Year’s Resolutions for Couples What can you do for your marriage in 2016? Try making a New Year’s resolution to improve your relationship. Here are some ideas to get started: • Schedule several “Date Nights” for the first few months of the year. • Would you like to improve your communication skills? Start by taking one or more of our Marriage Quizzes. • Draw up your 2016 household budget together. Discuss spending priorities, including charitable donations. • Take turns selecting a favorite Scripture passage to pray about each week. Share your reflections with each other. • Resolve to read at least one book on how to strengthen your relationship. Unsure where to start? Browse through the archived book reviews. • While it’s important to strengthen the marriage relationship, marriage is also a sacrament of service. It’s true that marriage benefits the couple, but it’s also good for their family, community, and the Church. Resolve to do at least one service activity this year, as a family or a couple. Perhaps it’s bringing canned goods to the local food pantry on a regular basis or helping out with a parish fundraising project. I feel so blessed. The Year of Mercy just started and I already received mercy. Last night a group of high school students from All Saints came to our house and sang carols for me and my husband. Gillian who had been bringing me the Eucharist had told them that I just had surgery so they decided to bring us some Christmas cheer. I was a little apprehensive when I got the call about it so I asked if they are doing this to raise funds for some cause. In my mind I thought that whatever I can give them will probably be much less than what others would. But I was told, “No, they do not expect anything.” They only want to sing for us to help alleviate the tediousness of my condition. And so they came, a whole lot of young, joyful teenagers on a Sunday evening when most other teenagers were probably doing homework, partying, or worse …. After singing a number of songs, the lady who seemed like a teacher said they also brought us a gift and this boy came up the steps to hand me a pot of beautiful poinsettia. She also asked if they can say a prayer for our family and I gratefully said “yes” while trying to hold back the tears welling up in my eyes. I was very deeply touched by this selfless act of giving shown by these kids who perhaps unwittingly answered the Pope’s call for mercy. So I sent them off with a blessing that they may continue to bring God’s love wherever they go and to their parents and their school I whispered, “Well done, people of God.” — from w w w . f o ry o u r m a r r i a g e . o r g Nazareth is a kind of school where we may begin to discover what Christ’s life was like and even to understand his Gospel. … First, we learn from its silence. … Second, we learn about family life. … Finally, in Nazareth, the home of a craftsman’s son, we learn about work and the discipline it entails. Pope Paul VI (from an address in Nazareth, Jan. 5, 1964) Pope’s Intentions for January: Universal Intention: That sincere dialogue among men and women of different faiths may produce the fruits of peace and justice. Intention for Evangelization: That by means of dialogue and fraternal charity, and with the grace of the Holy Spirit, Christians may overcome divisions.

The first thing that a person finds in life and the last to which he holds out his hand, and the most precious that he possess, even if he does not realize it, is family life. — Blessed Adolph Kolping (died, 1865) The Christmas season continues with today’s feast of the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. On Fri., Jan. 1, we celebrate the solemnity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of God. Sun., Jan. 3, finds us celebrating the Epiphany of the Lord.
