St. Barbara Parish, Brookfield Christmas Wafer - Oplatek Sharing of the oplatek (pronounced opwatek) is the most ancient and beloved of all Polish Christmas tradi ons. Oplatek is a thin wafer made of flour and water, similar in taste to the hosts that are used for communion during Mass. The Christmas wafer is shared before the Christmas Eve supper. The head of the household usually starts by breaking the wafer with his wife and then con nues to share it with everyone at the table. Wishes for peace and prosperity are exchanged and even the pets and farm animals are given a piece of oplatek on Christmas Eve. Legend has it that if animals eat oplatek on Christmas Eve, they will be able to speak in human voices at midnight, but only those who are pure of spirit will be able to hear them. This tradi on dates back many centuries when a thin, flat bread called podplomyk was baked over an open flame and then shared with the family gathered around the fire on Christmas Eve. Pa erns would be cut onto the bread to make breaking easier. This is why oplatek today s ll have pa erns on them, usually of Na vity scenes. The Christmas Wafer will be available in the Resource/Gi Center at the ves bule of the Church a er all the weekend Masses. The cost is $2.00 for an envelope containing three wafers.

Page Three Desde el escritorio del Párroco… “In passing through the Holy Door, then, may we feel that we ourselves are part of this mystery of love, of tenderness. Let us set aside all fear and dread, for these do not befit men and women who are loved. Instead, let us experience the joy of encountering that grace which transforms all things.” Pope Francis—December 8, 2015 “Que el atravesar la Puerta Santa, por lo tanto, haga que nos sintamos par cipes de este misterio de amor. Abandonemos toda forma de miedo y temor, porque no es propio de quien es amado; vivamos, más bien, la alegría del encuentro con la gracia que lo transforma todo.” Papa Francisco—diciembre 8, 2015 On the Feast of the Immaculate Concep on, Pope Francis opened the Holy Door at St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome and announced the beginning of a Jubilee of Mercy. In the year ahead, everyone in our Church is encouraged not only to pray for God’s mercy for themselves, but also to extend that mercy to others. Esta semana pasada, el Papa Francisco abrió la Puerta Santa en la Basílica de San Pedro en Roma y anunció el inicio de un Jubileo de la Misericordia. En el próximo año, todos en la Iglesia van a orar no sólo por la misericordia de Dios por sí mismos, sino también para que puedan extender esa misericordia a los demás. The Holy Door at St. Peter’s becomes a powerful symbol for us. Can we be like that door? Can we open ourselves up to receive the love and mercy that God wishes to offer us? La Puerta Santa en San Pedro sirve como un símbolo poderoso para nosotros. ¿Podamos ser igual a esa puerta? ¿Podamos abrirnos a recibir el gran amor y misericordia que Dios nos quiere ofrecer? It can be so easy to live our life behind closed doors, unwilling or unable to receive the gi s of forgiveness, mercy, and peace. This year invites us to unlock our hearts and give welcome to the great love that God has for us. Puede ser más fácil vivir la vida detrás de puertas cerradas, y no recibir los dones del perdón, misericordia, o paz. Este año nos invita a abrir nuestro corazón y dar la bienvenida al gran amor que Dios ene para todos nosotros. A door not only serves to welcome in, however. A door also serves as a means to go out. Can we use this year of mercy to consider how we will extend God’s mercy to the world around us? All to o en we choose to hold onto resentments and refuse to let go of our prejudices and assump ons. This year invites us to step through the door of mercy and begin a journey together on the path that will take us away from sin and darkness and lead us onward to the bright promise of new life in God. Sin embargo, una puerta no sólo sirve para dar la bienvenida. También sirve como un medio para salir. ¿Podemos u lizar este año de la misericordia para considerar cómo vamos a extender la misericordia de Dios a los demás? Entre nosotros es muy común guardar los resen mientos y no abandonar nuestros prejuicios y suposiciones. Este año nos invita a pasar por la puerta de la misericordia y comenzar una jornada unidos en caminar lejos del pecado y de la oscuridad y para acercarnos a la gran promesa de nueva vida en Dios. Here at St. Barbara, we do not have a Holy Door. But we do have a Niche of Mercy. During the next twelve months, I hope that we can have placed in that niche images of God’s great mercy to remind us of who we are called to be as God’s children. To begin, we now have hanging in the niche the image of the Divine Mercy. Down the road, however, we can place other images of God’s mercy. The Return of the Prodigal Son, for example, is an oil pain ng by Rembrandt that beau fully depicts mercy in the loving embrace of a father and son. If you have other images of mercy that you’d like us to consider, please send me your sugges ons. Let us pray that we may keep our hearts and minds centered on God’s great love for all people. Aquí en Santa Bárbara, no tenemos una Puerta Santa. Pero tenemos un Nicho de la Misericordia. Durante los próximos doce meses, espero que podamos colocar allí imágenes de la gran misericordia de Dios para recordarnos como viviremos si somos los hijos de Dios. Para empezar, tenemos en el nicho la imagen de la Divina Misericordia. Por adelante, sin embargo, podamos colocar otras imágenes de la misericordia de Dios. “El Regreso del Hijo Pródigo”, por ejemplo, es una pintura de Rembrandt que representa bien la misericordia en el abrazo amoroso entre un padre y su hijo. Si usted ene otras sugerencias de imágenes de la misericordia que nos gustaría tener en cuenta, por favor envíemelas. Ojalá podamos centrar nuestro corazón y mente en el gran amor que Dios ene por todos sus hijos.

At age 70, Sister Ann traded in her chalk for a sewing needle and today s ll helps cra altar cloths and vestments. Like Sister Ann, tens of thousands of senior sisters, brothers, and religious order priests have dedicated their lives to sharing their faith. Genera ons of Catholics recall with gra tude their work in Catholic schools, hospitals, and social service agencies. Yet years of ministering for li le or no pay came at a price, and now their religious communi es lack adequate savings for re rement and eldercare. Your gi to the Re rement Fund for Religious helps provide prescrip on medica ons, nursing care, and more. Please be generous. Over 93 percent of dona ons aid senior religious.

Page Six Jubilee Year of Mercy December 13, 2015 Pope Francis chose to inaugurate the Jubilee Year of Mercy last Tuesday because December 8th marks the fi ieth anniversary of the closing of Va can II. That council, Pope Francis reminds us, inaugurated a new phase in the Church’s history. The Spirit called the Church to tear down the walls that for far too long had made it a fortress, and to proclaim the gospel in a new, more accessible way. Pope Francis quotes Saint John XXIII in declaring the Church’s preference for “the medicine of mercy,” and Blessed Paul VI in proposing the Good Samaritan as our model for discipleship (Misericordiae Vultus, 4). Pope Francis adds that God’s mercy is “the bea ng heart of the Gospel,” and that mercy “must penetrate the heart and mind” of every disciple (MV, 12). Three mes today’s Gospel asks, “What should I do?” Pope Francis would say: Imitate Jesus, who came not wielding the fiery judgment that John the Bap st had threatened, but instead impar ng healing, compassion, forgiveness—mercy! —Peter Scagnelli, Copyright © J.
