Dear Friends,
Christmas fills us with reverie for Christmas’s past, a
recollection of innocence, wonder, awe and the joy of
sharing the love of family & friends. It’s important for us
to recall that 25 December may end the Retail/Commercial
“Holiday”, but for Catholics, 25 December is the beginning
of the Christmas Season. Now is the time to make definite
plans for being “Christ-bearers now, and throughout the
Year of Grace. Blessed Christmas to all!
Fr. Mike
Check out our website www.ickenmore.org for new
stories as well as pictures from the Holiday on the
Boulevard event.

Bar Exam. He is presently employed as a clerk in the United
States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in Pasadena,
California. Great job, Josh!
Fr. Barron’s Advent Reflections (find more daily reflections at www.adventreflections.com)
As we've already seen, Advent is a time of waiting. But does this mean that we do nothing? That we sit like lumps? No.
In fact, there is something very "active" about waiting. Do you recall how lively and attentive you are when you are
eagerly waiting for someone to arrive? When you watch for every car that comes by when you are waiting at the
airport? Every sense strains to take in what is happening. Your mind is alive with expectation; your spirit is jumping.
This is what waiting means in the spiritual sense; this is the mood of Advent. We're invited to actively wait, attuned to
the coming Christ, looking for him in the liturgy, the Scriptures, in prayer, & in all those around us who bear his image.
STEWARDSHIP THOUGHTS
How open are we to God’s will in our lives? How willing
are we to forego our plans so that we may be obedient to
God’s plan? Do we use our time, talent and treasure as
God directs? In our first reading King David decides that
a tent is not a suitable place for the Ark of the Covenant &
resolves to build a glorious home for God. God, however,
has other plans! It will not be David doing the building, it
will be God. God reminds David of His faithfulness and
then promises that He will “raise up your heir after you,
sprung from your loins, and I will make his kingdom firm. I
will be a father to him and he shall be a son to me.” That
heir is Jesus, whose legal, earthly father, Joseph, is
descended from the House of David. In the Gospel, a
young girl who is engaged and planning her wedding has
her plans turned upside down by God whose plan is for
her to conceive a son – before marriage. This infant “will
be great and will be called Son of the Most High and the
Lord God will give him the throne of David...” Wow! God
loves us so much that He gives us free will so both David
and Mary could have refused to cooperate with God, but
they did not and for their obedience were blessed in ways
they could never have imaged. What is God asking of
you? What could God do with your life if you surrendered
to and cooperated with His will? Are you will to be His
instruments in the world today? Make a gift of your life to
the Holy Child born on Christmas.
