THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR GENEROUS SUPPORT 2 HUDSON, MA Fr. Ron’s Ramblings Outra maravilhosa época de Natal já chegou entre nós. Ao celebrar-mos os 12 dias de Natal uma vez mais reflectimos na beleza e no mistério da encarnação, Deus se tornando homem e fazendo a sua morada no meio de nós. Another beautiful Christmas season is upon us. As we celebrate these twelve days of Christmas we once again reflect on the wonder and the mystery of the Incarnation, God becoming human and making His dwelling place among us. Cada ano, um dos mais emocionantes momentos desta época Natalicia para mim é ver todos vós vindo à missa nas duas ultimas semanas do Advento, trazendo os embrulhos decorados para as crianças da árvore dos presentes. A vossa generosidade e carinho torna real e verdadeiro e espirito desta época do Natal. O grande numero de presentes que rodearam a árvore em cada missa dos fins de semana foi o testemunho da vóssa generosidade e afecto por estas crianças. Os meus sinceros agradecimentos vão para o Dave e a Jan Fournier que coordenaram este trabalho maravilhoso e a todos os membros da Sociedade de São Vicente de Paulo, pela ajuda em separar e distribuir o grande numero de presentes. Every year, one of the most touching parts of this season for me, is watching all of you come into church on those last two weekends of Advent, carrying the festive packages for the children of the giving tree. Your generosity and caring epitomize the true spirit of the season. The sheer number of packages that surround the giving tree at every single weekend Mass is a testimony to that generosity. Sincere thanks go to Dave and Jan Fournier who coordinated this effort and to all the members of our St. Vincent DePaul Society for their help in sorting and delivering the large number of gifts. No próximo fim de semana da festa da Epifania nós o celebra-mos com o nosso anual coro a cantar. Como sabeis a musica de todo o Advento e Natal tem sido aceite respeitosamente e com emoção e tem imensamente aperfeiçoado a nossa experiência de veneração. As canções de Natal são certamente o ponto culminante deste tempo glorioso. Um obrigado ao John Volpe e a todos os membros do grupo coral pela sua dedicação e disponibilidade em compartir o seu talento para o trabalho de Deus. Tambem vai um obrigado a todos os responsaveis que tornam as liturgias da época tão significativas: aos que coordenaram a procissão das velas do Advento; aos que decoraram a igreja; à Mary Ellen Bartlett que se responsabilizou em distribuir as flores do Natal aos doentes em casa, nas casa de repouso e nos hospitais e a todos os que a ajudaram na distribuição; e concerteza um obrigado a todos os ministros que contribuiram para as impecaveis celebrações. Next weekend on the Feast of The Epiphany we will celebrate with our annual Carol Sing. As you know, the music for the whole of Advent and Christmas season has been reverential and moving and has greatly enhanced our worship experience. The Carol Sing really is the culmination of this glorious time of year. Thanks to John Volpe and all the choir members for their dedication and their willingness to share their talent for God’s work. Also thanks to all who are responsible for making our liturgies this season so meaningful: those who coordinated the Advent Candle processions; those who decorated the church; Mary Ellen Bartlett who coordinated the poinsettias deliveries to the homebound and to all of you who carried out those deliveries; and of course thanks to all the ministers who contributed to the flawless celebrations. Ao avançar-nos para a entrada do Ano Novo pedimos a Deus que o Espirito Santo cubra e proteja a nossa paróquia. Vos desejo a todos um feliz e próspero Ano Novo. Que Deus vos abençoe. Assim seja!!! As we move into this New Year, we pray God’s Spirit will continue to abound in our parish life! Please be courteous and refrain from bringing food, beverages or chewing gum into our Holy Church, unless it is a medical necessity. And please, silence your cell phone so we may all enjoy the Eucharistic Celebration. Thank you! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
