FOURTH SUNDAY OF ADVENT
ECHOING MARY’S DECISION
The angel Gabriel today confronts Mary with a mystery. The mystery of salvation in Christ is not a mystery
that is solved, but a reality beyond our comprehension
that we must choose to enter into. In the liturgy of the
Eastern Church, everyone waits to see if Mary will enter
into the mystery: God waits, Adam and Eve and all the
souls of the dead who long for paradise wait, angels wait
for new heavenly companions. And there is much rejoicing when her decision is “yes.”
We have less dramatic choices offered to us, but the
mystery of our salvation in Christ is by no means
“solved.” We may understand it a bit better due to
Mary’s “yes.” We may be a bit closer to it through the
passion, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. But it
still remains a mystery to which we all must give our
own “yes.” Soon we will be singing “O come, let us
adore him.” May our Advent prayer, our echo of Mary’s
“yes,” continue then, so we may enter into the mystery
of our salvation in Jesus Christ, God among us.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION
By the year 800, when anointing was defined as the
proper office of priests, very complicated rituals began
to take shape. Perhaps this was to reassure the laity,
who had memories of an earlier practice, that the new
way was not only better, but impossible for a layperson
to conduct. Blessings and sprinkling of holy water, the
singing of as many as seven psalms, penance, anointing
of all the senses, viaticum, all capped off by the clothing of the sick person in penitential garments, were part
of the rite. This proved unwieldy, and creative spirits
got to work. By the 1500s people made distinctions
between visiting the sick, anointing, and viaticum.
The attempt of the Church to be faithful to the image of a healing Christ has some complicated history,
including centuries when the celebration was rare.
Most sick people had no access to the rites at all; only
monastics or the well off had much hope of this care.
Today, those unhappy days are long behind us, and the
care of the sick is an essential task in every parish’s
life. As Christmas approaches almost everyone comes
in contact with someone who is a candidate for pastoral
care. You live out the best of our tradition when you
arrange for a sick person to receive Holy Communion
or the sacrament of the sick and the consolation of regular contact with the faith community.

CHRISTMAS IN THE HEART
Christmas! ’Tis the season for kindling the fire of
hospitality in the hall, the genial fire of charity in the
heart.
—Washington Irving
CONTINUAL CHRISTMAS
A good conscience is a continual Christmas.
—Benjamin Franklin
IMITAR LA DECISIÓN DE MARÍA
El ángel Gabriel hoy le presenta a María un misterio.
El misterio de salvación en Cristo no es un misterio que
se pueda resolver, sino una realidad más allá de nuestro
entendimiento en la cual nos decidimos a participar. En
la liturgia de la Iglesia Oriental, todos esperan para ver
si María participará en el misterio: Dios espera, Adán y
Eva y todas las almas de los muertos que anhelan el Paraíso esperan, los ángeles esperan tener nuevos compañeros celestiales. Y hay gran regocijo cuando su decisión es un “sí”.
A nosotros se nos ofrecen opciones menos dramáticas, pero el misterio de nuestra salvación en Cristo de
ningún modo queda “solucionado”. Puede que ahora lo
entendamos un poco mejor gracias al “sí” de María.
Puede que estemos un poco más cercanos a él mediante
la pasión, muerte y resurrección de Jesucristo. Pero un
misterio al cual todos debemos dar nuestro propio “sí”.
Ya pronto estaremos cantando “Venid y adoremos”.
Que nuestra oración de Adviento, a imitación del “sí”
de María, continúe para que podamos participar en el
misterio de nuestra salvación en Jesucristo, Dios-connosotros.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
En el cristianismo hay muchas y variadas imágenes
de la escena de la Anunciación narrada por Lucas (1:26
-38). Casi siempre se ve al ángel Gabriel que, bajando
del cielo, se acerca a la Virgen María. La jovencita, a
veces está trabajando, pero casi siempre está en oración
o leyendo la Sagrada Escritura. Ella se voltea para ver
al ángel, quien normalmente apunta hacia el cielo con
un dedo, recordando que su mensaje es de origen divino. Estas imágenes son reconocidas como “La Anunciación” y conmemoran el mensaje anunciado: Jesús.
Hay que ver más allá del ángel y la Virgen en estas
imágenes. Es necesario seguir el dedo de Gabriel y ver
que Dios se manifiesta en este anuncio. Muchas veces
Dios es presentado como el Padre celestial y/o el Espíritu Santo que envía rayos de luz hacia el vientre de la
Virgen. A veces en estos rayos se encuentra un pequeño grano de trigo: semilla del Verbo Divino. En esa
semillita se encuentra el anuncio verdadero: Dios se
hace uno de nosotros. El anuncio es la Encarnación del
Hijo de Dios.
—Fray Gilberto Cavazos-Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.
LA NAVIDAD EN EL CORAZÓN
¡Navidad! Es la estación para encender el fuego de
la hospitalidad en la sala, y el fuego y de la simpatía en
el corazón.
—Washington Irving
NAVIDAD CONTINUA
Una buena conciencia es una Navidad continua.
—Benjamin Franklin

DID YOU KNOW?
Tips for choosing safe toys for kids
Millions of toys are out there, and hundreds of new ones hit the stores each year. Toys are supposed to be
fun and are an important part of any child's development. But each year, scores of kids are treated in hospital
emergency departments for toy-related injuries. Here are some general guidelines to keep in mind when toyshopping: Toys made of fabric should be labeled as flame resistant or flame retardant. Stuffed toys should be
washable. Painted toys should be covered with lead-free paint. Art materials should say nontoxic. Crayons
and paints should say ASTM D-4236 on the package, which means that they've been evaluated by the American Society for Testing and Materials. For more information, please visit: www.kidshealth.org.
¿SABIA USTED?

año. Los juguetes son una parte importante del desarrollo de cualquier niño. Pero cada año, decenas de niños son tratados en las salas de emergencia de hospitales por lesiones relacionadas con juguetes. Aquí hay
algunos ejemplos generales a tener en cuenta al comprar juguetes: Juguetes de tela deben ser etiquetados como resistentes al fuego. Los juguetes de peluche deben ser lavables. Juguetes que estén pintados deben de
ser cubiertos con pintura sin plomo. Materiales de arte no deben ser tóxicos. Los paquetes de lápices de colores y pinturas deben de decir ASTM D-4236, lo que significa que han sido evaluados por la Sociedad
Americana para Pruebas y Materiales. Para más información, visite: www.kidshealth.org.
