SPIRITUAL ADOPTION - WEEK 15
Welcome!
[Job 10:11 Thou hast clothed me with skin and flesh;
thou hast put me together with bones and sinews:] It
is amazing how much I am growing and developing. I
am already four inches long and weigh a whopping
two and a half ounces. My skin is so thin you can see
my blood vessels. Lanugo, from the Latin word
meaning “down,” covers my body to protect my skin
from the water. The three tiny bones in my middle
ear are hardening and my ability to hear is developing. My legs are finally
longer than my arms and my body is now bigger than my head! I can twist
and turn and kick. As a matter of fact if I kick real hard, my mom might feel
a little flutter. Time to get back to my water aerobics! Thank you for all
It is with great happiness that we announce our
newest parishioners who have joined our Parish
Family through the Sacrament of Baptism:
Callen Louis Gracon

On Tuesday, December 16th our parish will hold an
Advent Penance Service, at 7:00 p.m. in the church.
Visiting priests will join us as we gather as God’s
people to pray for each other, and to prepare
ourselves to make a good confession. I hope you will
avail yourselves of this opportunity to prepare
spiritually for Christmas.

As we celebrate the 3rd Sunday of
Advent we observe Gaudete Sunday.
The word gaudete comes from the
Latin to “Rejoice.” We rejoice as the great day of
Christ’s historical birth draws near. For many, our
stress levels increase as we realize how much we still
need to do before Christmas Eve. Knowing our
anxieties, the Church offers a few helpful hints to
draw us ever deeper into the mystery of the
Incarnation.

CHURCH OF ST. ROBERT BELLARMINE
Advent Penance Service
Tuesday, December 16th
7:00 PM In the Church
Visiting priest will be available
to hear confessions
Another spiritual event that will help in our
preparation for Christmas is our participation in the
Christmas Novena. Beginning on Wednesday,
December 17th to Tuesday, December 23rd, the Church
invites all her sons and daughters to spend a little time
in prayer to open our hearts and minds to the mystery
of Jesus Christ. This year’s Christmas Novena, uses
the “O” Antiphons, founded in the Old Testament to
break open the identify of Jesus. These antiphons
may be found in the verses of the hymn O Come, O
Come, Emmanuel; “Wisdom,” “Lord,” and “Day
Star” are just a few names that the prophets attribute
to the Messiah when he comes. A booklet for the
Christmas Novena will be available after all the
Masses this weekend in the gathering area of church.
I hope you will pick up one of these booklets and use
it during this last week of Advent. Allow the Word of
Sacred Scripture to fill your hearts with peace as you
continue to prepare for the Great Day of Christmas.

Msgr. Sam
