The Holy Family of Jesus, Mary, and Joseph
Letter from the Pastor
Dear Parishioners,
The Feast of the Holy Family of Jesus is a good
event to remind us of the importance of family on
many levels. Families are where we learn about
who we are. It is where tradition and morality are
first introduced to us. Families come in many
shapes and sizes. Our need to belong to a family or
to be a part of something greater than ourselves is
natural to our condition as human beings. It was
important to Jesus as well. He needed to be
nurtured just as we need to be nurtured.
Mary and Joseph took a great risk by allowing
themselves to be the parents of Jesus. Their faith
gave them the courage to accept this great
responsibility and their faith laid the foundation for
Jesus to understand his call and his mission.
Our parish community is a family rooted in faith.
Everyone needs a family and everyone has a family
if we understand ourselves to be the adopted
daughters and sons of God. We are brothers and
sisters one to another.
On Thursday we will celebrate the Solemnity of
Mary, the Mother of God. Mary is our mother too.
She is our patroness, our protector. Please join us
for our Eucharistic celebration in honor of Mary on
Wednesday evening and Thursday during the day.
Thursday is also New Year’s Day. I wish you and
your families a very happy, healthy and holy New
Year.

We have completed our first round through Father
Barron’s video series on Catholicism and those who
participated were very impressed by both Father
Barron’s explanations of our Catholic Faith and the
rich introduction to Catholic culture that the videos
do through the art and music of both the Church in
the past and today’s Church throughout the world.
Several parishioners have indicated an interest in
doing this series at another time. Would anyone like
to host a small group in their home to view and discuss the videos. There are ten videos in the set
and the group could meet weekly, bi-weekly, or
monthly depending on their interest. Call Father Pat
if you are interested? (Office phone is 201 567
2528)
We also had our first monthly “Afternoon at the Movies” with the C.S. Lewis biographical story, Shadowlands. Next month’s film is one that Pope Francis
has said is his “favorite.” (He has said this about a
couple of different films—like most of us he hates to
limit himself.) It is Gabriel Axel’s 1987 story Babette’s Feast. As soon as we pick a date we will let you
know more.
The Knights of Columbus Free Throw contest will be
held in the gym on January 10th at 4:30 pm.
The Knights of Columbus works to keep Christ in
Christmas! Are you a Knight? Why not?
With Love,
Fr. Sam

How do I pray the Rosary? How can I grow in my
faith? Where I can meet like-minded Catholics?
What is a disciple of Jesus Christ – am I one?
What is the Pope saying today?

the resource in the palm of your hand which will

"Little Christmas" in many countries.
