Share The Gospel
When Mary visited Elizabeth, they were both waiting for their babies to be born. Elizabeth's baby
would grow up to be John the Baptist. Mary's baby
would grow up to be Jesus our savior. Mary and
Elizabeth were excited to see each other, not only
because they loved each other, but also because
they both loved God very much. It makes God happy when we love our relatives and friends, just like
Mary and Elizabeth did. Mary couldn't wait to visit
her much older cousin, Elizabeth, up in the hills of
Judea. Both of them were expecting babies. Each
of them knew that the birth of her child was a special event that could only happen because they
trusted God. Your own mother trusted that God
would give you life in this world. Both Mary and
Elizabeth watched their children grow up to do
good things. You can grow up to do good things too,
if you trust in God.
Prayer
Dear Jesus, help me to trust you and to remember
that you are the reason we celebrate Christmas.
Something to Draw
Draw a picture of your relatives visiting
one another at Christmas.
Mission for the Week
You belong to a larger family than just the people
in your home. See how many of your relatives you
can name before you visit them at Christmas. When
you do see them, wish them "Merry Christmas!"

"Mary set out and traveled to the hill country in haste." What was the rush? Why did Mary go so
quickly to visit her cousins Elizabeth and Zechariah? It's hard to know exactly what her purpose
was, but one thing is clear: Mary and Elizabeth shared a special connection. Perhaps Mary was
anxious to be in the company of someone who could understand her unusual situation.
At this point, Mary was newly pregnant by the power of the Holy Spirit. The verses preceding today's reading tell us about the appearance of the Angel Gabriel and Mary's willingness to become
the mother of the Messiah. Now, this child was already growing within her womb, but the whole
thing was an incredible secret. Who would believe her? In whom could Mary confide the unbelievable events that had taken place? We know that at some point later, Joseph had a vision in a dream
that allowed him to understand. But before that dream came, he was planning to part ways with
Mary. It must have been during that difficult time that Mary went to see Elizabeth. And what joy
that upon her arrival, Elizabeth immediately understood. "Blessed is the fruit of your womb,"
Elizabeth cried out. The same Holy Spirit who conceived Jesus in Mary's womb enlightened Elizabeth at this moment.What a consolation this must have been to Mary. This story reminds us of
the importance of our own fellowship in the faith. Sharing our spiritual journey with other believers who are receptive to the Holy Spirit is meant to be a source of encouragement and strength.
We are not supposed to be in this alone. As we worship and celebrate together with our faith community, may we share with each other the real joy of this sacred season.
Christmas Flowers Many Thanks to those who have given their contributions toward the flowers the parish will

¡Cantemos
de alegría, el Señor está cerca! María toma su decisión, y con prisa va al encuentro de su
prima Isabel y rinde tributo a ella y a su hijo en cuanto se saludan. María esperaba una afirmación
de saber que Dios estaba con ella y la encontró en labios de su prima. "¡Bendita tú entre las mujeres y bendito el fruto de tu vientre!...Dichosa tú, que has creído, porque se cumplirá cuanto te fue
anunciado de parte del Señor". Este encuentro le provoca gran alegría y canta de júbilo el Magníficat. En este himno de alegría alaba la confianza que Dios depósito en ella. Del cómo los poderosos son derribados y los pequeños enaltecidos. En estos últimos días de Adviento la liturgia
nos invita a regocijarnos junto con María en la alegría del Niño que ya llega a darnos esperanza de
un mundo mejor. Humildad y serenidad son urgentes en nuestra sociedad, reconocer que dependemos de Dios, que necesitamos su gracia en el mundo. El secreto de María fue que siempre confió
en Dios, hoy ya no es secreto porque ella nos lo enseña para que pongamos manos a la obra y saber confiar. Miremos alrededor de nosotros y digámosle confiados a Jesús. "Señor, ya no quiero
caer de nuevo, quiero caminar, deseo seguir en la lucha, llévame en tus manos, guíame y sigue
mostrándome quien eres tú. Recuérdame que no estoy solo, deseo abrirte las puertas de mi corazón, que mis ojos vean los signos de tu amor en esta Navidad. Quiero anunciar la buena nueva de
tu Nacimiento".
Merry Christmas Feliz Navidad
