THE ADVENT WREATH

The Advent wreath, like many of our customs at Christmas traces its origin to pre-Christian times when candles were lit during the winter to the "sungod" asking for light. It was the Lutherans who started the Advent wreath as a Christian custom. The word "advent" comes from the Latin term for arrival or "coming." It is the season when we await the coming of the Lord in time and at the end of time. The Advent wreath usually has four candles, three purple and one pink to match the color of the vestments of the week. The candles are lit on the Sundays of Advent. The first candle, called the Prophets' Candle, is lit on the first Sunday of Advent, then the second candle, called the Bethlehem Candle, is lit on the second Sunday along with the first. On the third Sunday of Advent a pink candle, called the Shepherds' Candle, is lit representing "Rejoice" Sunday, and then the fourth candle, called the Angels' Candle, is lit on the last Sunday of Advent. Sometimes a white candle is placed in the center of the wreath and is called the Christ candle. Sometimes the flame from that candle is used to light the others. In some parishes, the white candle remains unlit until Christmas Eve. A different explanation of the meaning of the candles can sound like the greetings we use in our Christmas cards. This explanation says that the candles represent "hope," "love," "joy," and "peace." For this reason the wreath can also be used during the Christmas celebrations but with candles that are all white.

Living the Eucharist is a parish renewal program that will be offered to all parishioners this Lent season. Small groups will gather weekly for 6 weeks during the Lenten season. There is something for adults, teens and families. The weekly gathering will be 90 minute session reflecting on the Sunday readings and other topics each week. there will be a Living the Eucharist retreat on April 28, 2012. Living the Eucharist has the potential to renew and deepen the Eucharistic spirituality of parishioners in the following ways: Increased knowledge about the centrality of the Eucharist in Catholic life Greater appreciation and understanding of preparing for and participating in Sunday Mass Deeper, more intentional engagement in Sunday Mass, and, by extension, in parish life Keener awareness of living as a disciple of Jesus and building up the Kingdom of God A stronger, more Eucharist-based Catholic identity among participants More frequent attendance at Sunday Mass Opportunities to increase the knowledge, skills, and commitment of the parish liturgical ministers, thereby creating more vibrant Sunday liturgies Increased opportunities to invite and welcome inactive Catholics and the unchurched

If you would like to become involved in the parish planning team call Eileen Maggiore at 630 396 6076 or send an email [email protected]. Our first team planning meeting will be on Monday, November 28, 2011 at 7:00 p.m. in the East Room of the rectory.

Advent 24 Hour Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament

Parishioners have recommended to the staff for 24 hour adoration on Thursdays during Advent. What a wonderful way to welcome the Christ Child! After discussion and prayer, we will have adoration during Advent. Thank you to the committee for their recommendation to us. This will take more of a commitment from those who already come each week, plus we are in need of new people to fill spaces, especially during dinner hours and night time hours. As of this time, we will do the first two weeks of Advent Adoration. Once we see parishioners are committed to attend, then we will do another two weeks. It is vital that the exposed Blessed Sacrament in the monstrance has two adorers present all the time. Please email Roberta at: [email protected] to commit. If you dont have email then leave a message for her at the rectory. Fr. Peter, Adoration Committee, Bill Runge

Mass at Good Samaritan Hospital During Advent

The director of Spiritual Care has asked Fr. Peter Jarosz to celebrate Thursday Noon Advent Masses at the Hospital chapel for the staff and families who are there. You are invited to come pray with us as we offer up our prayer and sacrifices for all the sick in the hospital, your families and of the world.

Catholic Charities Closes Foster Care Program

It is with deepest sadness that I inform you of the closing of our foster care program at Catholic Charities in the Diocese of Joliet. We have provided loving and exceptional services to children and their foster families for over 50 years and our staff have clearly demonstrated their commitment to the well-being of children and sacredness of family. Our foster families and the children entrusted in their care will be transitioning to other social service agencies in the area. Please keep them and all of our staff in your prayers. Our Maternity Services Program will continue to meet the needs of women facing unplanned pregnancies. This program provides counseling and support services including help with basic needs, housing, and medical care. You can learn more about this program on our website at www.catholiccharitiesjoliet.org Thank you for your support and prayers during these challenging times.

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Year of the Eucharist 2010-2011

Advent is a time of expectation and hope. The Church prepares for the feast of the Nativity of the Lord, and also hopes for His final arrival. Believers wait for the fulfillment of salvation, when time shall end, and the Church shall be revealed as Gods New Creation. During Advent, the Church also remembers that the first People of God, the Hebrews, waited for the time when the fullness of Gods promises would be revealed in the advent of the Messiah and the Kingdom of God. Christians, of course, believe that the ancient promises were fulfilled in Christ, and so many of the liturgical readings, psalms and hymns of the Advent season reflect the Old Testament hopes that were fulfilled in Christ. One hymn which contains a rich collection of Old Testament references is the old Latin hymn, sung to an ancient plain chant melody, which is known in English as O Come, O Come Emmanuel. This hymn is based upon antiphons used in the Office of Vespers, or Evening Prayer, for the last week of Advent. These antiphons, similar to the responsorial psalm verses of the Mass, occur during the Magnificat, Marys song found in St. Luke's Gospel, which begins My soul magnifies the Lord, my spirit rejoices in God my savior This Canticle is recited at every celebration of Vespers, and is always preceded and ended with an antiphon which reflects the season or the feast. The Advent antiphons, called the O Antiphons, because they begin with an address to Christ, draw on titles for the Lord taken from the Old Testament. During the four weeks of Advent, I would like to reflect on these sometimes mysterious references to Christ. The first title applied to Christ gives the name to the hymn. O come, O come, Immanuel... The name Immanuel means El, God, is immanu, with us. This name occurs in Isaiah 7:14. The prophecy of God-with-us was spoken during the later part of the 8th century before Christ. At this time, the Hebrews were divided into two kingdoms. Judah, in the south, had Jerusalem as its capital and a descendant of David, Ahaz as its king. The northern ten tribes were called Israel, they had their capital in Samaria, but the northern kings were not descendants of David. While sharing the same faith in one God, the Hebrews were divided into two different kingdoms. The Northern Kingdom was in alliance with the Syrians, and an attack on Jerusalem was imminent. The northern plan was to force Judah to join Israel and Syria in a war against the Assyrian Empire. At this time, the prophet Isaiah approached Ahaz, King of Judah, and told him that God offered him a sign of salvation, that a young girl would conceive and bear a son, that he would be raised on milk and honey, and that by the time he had reached the age of reason, the crisis would be averted. Isaiah said that the boy would be known as Immanuel, God-is-with-us. The king refined to hear the prophet, he preferred to trust that Assyrias military might was too much even for God. In being untrusting, King Ahaz was following the practice of most of the kings of Jerusalem. The two Books of Kings remain as a sad commentary on the House of David. Very few of the kings were saints, most were venal politicians. The child that Isaiah was referring to was probably the young prince who would eventually become King of Judah, and a great religious reformer. His name was Hezekiah. He and his later descendant King Josiah are two rare exceptions among the ancient Judaic kings; they were both regarded as saints and men of true faith. Christians see in Isaiahs prophecy a deeper meaning that went beyond the time of the Assyrian crisis of the 8th century. In Jesus, we see the fulfillment of the name and title Immanuel in our faith that the Messiah has come, and that in Film, who is both God and man, the promises of salvation have been completed in a way that even Isaiah did not envision. The lonely exile from God is ended, the crisis of human sin and evil has been transformed into the light, life and grace of the eternal Kingdom. Rejoice, rejoice, O Israel, to you shall come Immanuel. - Father Bob

Year of the Eucharist 2010-2011 A Thrill of Hope

November 27, 2011

So get this: You know how researchers are always doing studies to prove things you already knew? A report on "20/20," describes a study that demonstrated something amazing. Are you ready for this? They discovered that serving other people...makes you happy. Imagine their surprise. Never mind that Christians have been saying that for only 2,000 years now. God wants us to be happy, in this world and the next. And we fight that happiness, kicking and screaming. We are sure that if we just try hard enough, we will find happiness on our own terms. But we always fail. It is amazing sometimes how the world struggles to find happiness in all the wrong places, over and over again. The world seems at times to be spiraling out of control, even though we offer it the Good News that will solve all its problems. And yet we must admit that even we, God's holy people who proclaim the Gospel, fail at times. OK, a lot. We fail because we are still trying to find human solutions to our problems. We know, for instance, that wealth and possessions will not make us happy. But when we are unhappy, we think, "Hmmm. Maybe that new Mercedes is what I need." We know that forgiveness will make us happy. But when offended or insulted, we want to get even. We know that fidelity will make us happy. But when we crave self-affirmation, we seek it in infidelity. This is Advent, and I know we keep telling you to wait for Christmas. But let's take a look forward in joyful anticipation to the words of one Christmas carol: "A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices; for yonder breaks a new and glorious morn." What a beautiful thought for this hope-filled season of Advent. This is the thrill of hope expressed by Zechariah when told that his wife, Elizabeth, would bear a son. The angel Gabriel told him, "Do not be afraid," that he brought good news to Zechariah. "Do not be afraid." Did you know this is one of the most frequent sentences in the New Testament? They are words of hope. But Zechariah was afraid, and he doubted the good news. Just like us. He was struck speechless until his son John would be born. Zechariah finally gives up trying to find happiness on his own terms. He lets God be God. And his first words at the birth of John the Baptist are a glorious expression of hope. Hope that we may worship God without fear of what will make us truly happy. Hope for the mercy of God that will make us whole. Hope for forgiveness of sins that brings us new life. Hope that God will live among us. As Zechariah said, "The daybreak from on high will visit us to shine on those who sit in darkness and death's shadow, to guide our feet into the path of peace." Peace. Now there's a word the weary world does not understand. To the world, peace means to just stop killing thousands of people for a while. But for us Christians, peace means a whole lot more. The weary world needs peace. And so do we. Let's not doubt God when he tells us what will make us happy. Let's not be afraid to seek true happiness rather than the fleeting and unsatisfying pleasure of the world. And where we have failed, we acknowledge our failings with tears of joyful hope. For the Lord is kind and merciful. You and I are following a star. Sometimes it's hard to see. Sometimes we wonder if the star will really lead us to happiness. Sometimes we fall along our way. But we follow, we follow, we follow. Bloodied and bedraggled, hungry and heartbroken, torn and troubled, we follow. Because in our hearts, we have felt a thrill of hope.

November 30, 2011 Week 6: A Body Both Suffering and Glorious - The Mystical Union of Christ and the Church Clearly answering the question, What is the Church? Father Barron presents the reality of the Church as one, holy, catholic and apostolic. The Body of Christ can be seen all over the earth, while still escaping total understanding as the mystical union between Christ and his Church. December 7, 2011 Week 7: Word Made Flesh, True Bread of Heaven - The Churchs Sacrament & Worship

Father Barron explores the notion that all value is summed up in the liturgy, the supreme act by which we commune with God. Considered by the Catholic Faith to be the source and summit of its identity and mission, the Eucharist is the central practice of the Churchs culture.
