Christmas 2015

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

A Blessed Christmas to you all.
My greeting comes at a time marked by sad and
troubling news for our city, our nation and our world.
The joyful news of Christmas competes in these days
with stories of street violence in our city, of wars,
conflicts and acts of terrorism throughout the world
including in our own nation.
As people of faith, we must read these signs of the
times. As we do, so Christmas gives us a proper
perspective: the sadness of violence and war does not
have the last word. God has come to save us, for we
cannot save ourselves. The savior born to us raises us up
from darkness and brings us into his own wonderful
light.
One of the Christmas readings taken from Pauls
letter to Titus says this:
When the kindness and generous love
of God our savior appeared,
not because of any righteous deeds we had done
but because of his mercy,
he saved us Titus 3:4-5
We hear those words because of his mercy,
especially as we celebrate the Jubilee of Mercy this year.
The challenge for us is not just to believe that God is
merciful, but also to believe that God is merciful to us
and that God is blessing us with his mercy precisely at
this very moment, and in the limited circumstances of
our lives and relationships. When we accept that mercy,
we will be transformed and become the merciful light of
God in a dark and cold world. Then, our works of mercy
will, in turn, bring hope, healing, and renewal, just as
Gods mercy has done for us.
May God bless you and your families with his mercy
and enable you to be the hands of his mercy in our
world.
Sincerely yours in Christ,

Queridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo:

Una Bendita Navidad para todos ustedes.
Les envo este saludo en un momento marcado por
noticias tristes y preocupantes para nuestra ciudad,
nuestra nacin y nuestro mundo. Las gozosas nuevas de
la Navidad compiten estos das con historias de violencia
en las calles de nuestra ciudad, de guerras, conflictos y
actos de terrorismo en todo el mundo, incluso en nuestra
propia nacin.
Como personas de fe, debemos leer estos signos de
los tiempos. Para hacerlo, la Navidad nos aporta una
perspectiva adecuada: la tristeza de la violencia y la
guerra no tiene la ltima palabra. Dios ha venido a
salvarnos, pues no podemos salvarnos a nosotros
mismos. El salvador, que naci para nosotros, nos
rescata de la oscuridad y nos introduce en su propia luz
maravillosa.
Una de las lecturas de Navidad tomadas de la carta
de Pablo a Tito, dice lo siguiente:
Se manifest la bondad de Dios, nuestro salvador,
y su amor a los hombres;
no se fij en lo bueno que hubiramos hecho,
sino que tuvo misericordia de nosotros
y nos salv ... Tito 3: 4-5
Escuchamos esas palabras sino que tuvo
misericordia, especialmente ahora que celebramos este
ao el Jubileo de la Misericordia. El reto para nosotros
no slo consiste en creer que Dios es misericordioso,
sino en creer tambin que Dios es misericordioso con
nosotros y que nos bendice con su misericordia en este
preciso momento y en las circunstancias limitadas de
nuestras vidas y relaciones. Cuando aceptemos esa
misericordia, seremos transformados y nos
convertiremos en la luz misericordiosa de Dios en un
mundo oscuro y fro. Entonces, nuestras obras de
misericordia traern, a su vez, esperanza, sanacin y
renovacin, del mismo modo que la misericordia de Dios
nos las ha trado a nosotros.
Que Dios bendiga con su misericordia a ustedes y a
su familia y les permita ser sus manos misericordiosas en
este, nuestro mundo.

Most Reverend Blase J. Cupich

Archbishop of Chicago

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION

Many of our most treasured traditions link the
liturgy of the church with the hearth of the home. The
food on the table at certain feasts and fasts helps to
extend the mystery into everyday life. Tonight, for
example, many families of Italian heritage, especially
those with links to the south of Italy, will settle down
to the Feast of the Seven Fishes, or La Vigilia. It is a
command performance for the whole family, as the
saying goes: Natale con I tuui, Pasqua conchi vuoi, or
Christmas with your family, Easter with whomever
you wish. Seven different fish, some say one for each
day of Mary and Josephs journey to Bethlehem,
others say one for each sacrament, or one for each day
of creation, are served. Eel and shrimp, lobster and
crab, calamari, pasta with clam sauce, flounder and
hake all abound, but most especially baccala, dried
salted cod. Why? Many say that it is a way to pay
homage to the beasts of the stable who witnessed the
holy birth and relinquished their manger to make way
for God. Tonight, if someone asks you to pass the
shrimp, youll be able to shed a little light on a menu
that is a delicious treasure in our tradition!

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
Esta semana recordamos a los nios judos que
fueron asesinados por orden del Rey Herodes en
Beln. Esa tragedia que ocurri cuando el viejo y
celoso rey se enter del nacimiento de un nuevo rey de
los judos. l mand a matar a todo nio que tuviera
menos de dos aos. El llanto de las familias que
perdieron sus pobres inocentes se ha convertido en
risas en varios pases latinoamericanos. El 28 de
diciembre en muchas partes es conmemorado como el
da de los inocentes que viene siendo el April Fools
Day de Latinoamrica. En ese da se hacen bromas
para burlarse de los amigos. Si la broma funciona al
pobre que fue engaado se le llama inocente.
La inocencia normalmente se atribuye a los nios
o a los ingenuos, pero en si la inocencia es una virtud
cristiana, de los que hemos sido perdonados por
Cristo. Esta inocencia no es ingenuidad mas bien es la
candidez, simplicidad y generosidad de una persona
que conoce bien lo duro que es la vida y an as
mantiene la esperanza.

DISCOVER HOW GOD

IS CALLING YOU
Cardinal George created The Quigley Scholars Program in 2007 to support young men in the Archdiocese
of Chicago who want to learn more about the priesthood.
The program is open to teens in both public and
Catholic high schools (at any level) as well as those who
are homeschooled.
The Scholars attend a formational meeting once a
month at Mundelein Seminary from September through
April. We pray together, attend Mass, have dinner and
attend a faith sharing session with the seminarians.
Scholars who attend Catholic high schools in the
Archdiocese may also apply for a $2,500 scholarship to
help offset the cost of high school tuition.

Interested in becoming a Quigley scholar? Call

Father Julio at (847) 546-3610.
