Feast of the Holy Family of Jesus,
Mary, and Joseph
Imagine: three New Year’s celebrations in little over a month! In late
November, Advent began the new liturgical year;
December 8, the Jubilee Year of Mercy; this coming
Friday, the New Year 2016. In today’s Gospel, after
three days of anguish, Mary tells Jesus how desperately she and Joseph have been searching for him.
Mary could be speaking for the whole human race.
With religious persecutions raging, international and
domestic conflicts seething, our family and friends
suffering various difficulties, not to mention our
own personal problems, how much our world needs
Jesus as another New Year veiled in mystery begins!
As we pray for God’s mercy to enfold our world and
embrace each of us in 2016, let our New Year’s resolution be to live the Jubilee Year of Mercy by being for others, as Mary was, a channel of God’s mercy and an instrument of Christ’s peace.
Fiesta de la Sagrada Familia
Imagina: ¡tres celebraciones de Año Nuevo en el
transcurso de menos de un mes!, al final de
noviembre, con el Adviento empezó el Nuevo Año
Litúrgico; luego el 8 de diciembre, el Año Jubilar de
la Misericordia y este viernes que viene, el Año
Nuevo 2016. En el Evangelio de hoy, después de
tres días de angustia, María le dice a Jesús lo preocupada que ella y José habían estado buscándolo.
María podría estar hablando por toda la humanidad.
Con violentas persecuciones religiosas, conflictos
nacionales e internacionales en plena ebullición,
nuestra familia y amigos sufriendo de varias dificultades, sin mencionar nuestros propios problemas
personales, ¡qué tanto nuestro mundo necesita a
Jesús como otro Nuevo Año empieza cubierto de
misterio! Al orar por que la misericordia de Dios se
muestre a nuestro mundo y envuelva a cada uno de
nosotros este 2016, que las resoluciones este Año
Nuevo vivan el Año Jubilar de la Misericordia para
los demás, como María fue, un instrumento de la
misericordia de Dios y de la paz de Cristo.

PROTECTING OUR CHILDREN
DID YOU KNOW?
When secrets become dangerous - There is no
better time of year to review the important family
rules that help to keep all children safe. It takes just
a few moments to review with your children what to
do in an emergency, who the special and safe adults
in their life are, and the importance of not keeping
secrets. Some secrets, like a gift for a special occasion, can be fun and safe to keep. Secrets that hurt
others, involve any kind of unsafe or inappropriate
touching or anything that bothers a child -- are secrets that are NOT safe to keep. Help your child
understand the difference. For a copy of the VIRTUS® article “Back to School: Secrets”, email: [email protected].
¿SABIA USTED?
Cuando los secretos se vuelven peligrosos - No
hay ningún mejor momento durante el ano para repasar las reglas familiares sobre la seguridad de los
niños. Tome sólo unos minutos para repasar con sus
hijos qué hacer durante una emergencia, quienes son
los adultos especiales en su vida con quiénes están
seguros, y la importancia de no mantener secretos.
algunos secretos, como un regalo para una ocasión
especial, pueden ser divertidos y seguros de mantener. Secretos que hacen daño a otros, que implica
contacto físico inapropiado o cualquier cosa que molesta a un niño son secretos que NO son seguros de
mantener. Ayuda a su hijo a entender la diferencia.
para una copia del articulo de VIRTUS “Back to
School: Secrets” (Regreso a la escuela:Secretos) envié un correo electrónico a: [email protected].
