THIRD SUNDAY OF ADVENT
Dear parishioners,
A week from tomorrow (Monday) will be Christmas Eve! We will have Masses for
the Vigil of Christmas (Monday, December 24th) at 4:30 PM, which is the most
crowded Mass we have and please remember the saving of seats will not be
tolerated. I don’t want to referee seating riots that can break out and which are
very distracting prior to a religious service to both the priest and the congregation.
Don’t come to the 4:30 PM Vigil Mass if you can help it!
The 6:30 PM Mass is the Solemn Family Mass which includes the children’s
Christmas Pageant as a prelude.
The Prelude to the Midnight Mass begins at 11:15 PM with the Choral Carol
Prelude, and then Mass of Christmas Day at Midnight begins on Tuesday at
12:00AM. The most comfortable, peaceful Masses of Christmas are the Mass at
Dawn at 8:00 AM and the Mass During the Day at 10:00 AM. If you can avoid the
4:30 and 6:30 Vigil Mass, consider one of the two morning Masses by all means.
Today is Gaudete Sunday and the priest is wearing rose color vestments. Even in
the midst of misery and anxiety, the Church calls her faithful to rejoice in the Lord
always, in good times and in bad times; no matter what. Of course we can’t do it
on our own, we must rely upon the grace of God that we merit by attending Mass
every Sunday or even every day and by the private prayers and devotions we offer
to God daily as well as our good works. “Rejoice in the Lord always, again I say
rejoice!”
*Nursery Available
God bless you this Advent Season!

Visit the Bookstore!!
The Bookstore now has a very nice Gift Bible from Our Sunday Visitor that was
just published this month. This Catholic Bible would be a very thoughtful way of
celebrating a special occasion, such as a birthday, wedding, Confirmation,
graduation, First Communion, new conversion, or “just because” for that special
person.
This stunning gift edition of the New American Bible, revised edition, includes
complete Old & New Testaments and has an easy-to-read font size. The warm
beige simulated leather cover features embossed accents and the richness and
beauty of this Bible, along with gilt-edged pages, truly sets it apart from other
gift Bibles.
When shopping for kids, consider our great selection of children’s books. A new
shipment of Prayer Pillows (including the much requested Guardian Angel
Pillowcase) are in stock. As always, we have a fabulous selection of rosaries,
medals, and statues. Come and shop the bookstore. Quality gifts are abundant
and prices are reasonable. Merry Christmas to everyone and thank you for your
support this year!

Awaken Your Catholic Faith
Sometimes important things get away from us—things like faith.
Is this you?
-Too busy? Not been to church in awhile.
-Children asking questions about faith that you’re not sure how to answer?
-Looking for an opportunity to explore your faith?
Awakening Faith may be just right for you. This six-session series includes topics
such as “Spirituality: What’s the Buzz?”, “Can I Accept God’s Mercy?”, “Can the
Mass Make My Life Meaningful?”, and “The Church and Me.” You can learn and
ask questions….all in a friendly and confidential setting with other Catholics.
St. Joseph Catholic Parish invites you to six Awakening Faith sessions on
Tuesdays from 7PM-9PM beginning on January 8th, 2013. There is no charge to
attend. Go to www.stjosephmacon.com for more information or contact the
parish at 478-745-1631, or by email [email protected] to receive your
personal invitation with all the details.

“Oplatki”
This is a wonderful Christmas Eve tradition in some eastern European countries (one of them being Poland) to which
Fr. Dawid has introduced us. Please read about it below, and if you are interested in doing this with your family, pick up a bag of Oplatki at the
church tables and try it. It could become a wonderful tradition for your family!
The tradition of the Oplatki originated in Poland during Early Christian times. This Christmas Custom began with a simple white wafer, baked
from flour and water. The wafers are wonderfully designed to display Christmas images, such as the Nativity. The Oplatki are enjoyed by
families, typically right before the Christmas Eve meal. Generally the eldest member of the family will begin the ritual by breaking off a piece of
the wafer and passing it to another family member with a blessing. This blessing can simply consist of what you desire for your loved one in the
upcoming year – whether it be good health, success, or happiness. The purpose of this act is primarily to express one’s unconditional love and
forgiveness for each member of his or her family. The significance of the Oplatki Christmas wafer is in that it shadows the Eucharistic meal that
Catholics participate in at each Mass. Just as we share in the Eucharist as one family in Christ and receive Christ’s love through the Eucharist, the
Oplatki allows for one’s immediate family to come together and share the love they have for one another. Although this tradition is primarily
enjoyed by the human members of the family, even the family pets can partake in this meal. Whereas the wafers are generally white in color,
there are colored Oplatki made especially for pets. Although both colors are edible by people. Traditionally, this corresponds to the animals that
were present at Christ’s birth. However, in current times, this can also represent the important role that pets play in the family. The Oplatki
tradition is one that is easy and fun to introduce to the family at Christmas time. All it requires is a simple wafer paired with love and affection,
and the willingness to share it. This is a heartwarming tradition that will complete your family’s time together during the Christmas season.
