LITURGICAL MINISTRY SCHEDULE In his speech, Stephen recalled God’s guidance through Israel’s history, as well as Israel’s idolatry and disobedience.

It was a general practice among the farmers in Europe to decorate their horses on Stephen's Day, and bring them to the house of God to be blessed by the priest and afterward ridden three times around the church, a custom still observed in many rural sections.

St. John the Apostle, the son of Zebedee and Salome, was one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus. John was called to be

an Apostle by our Lord in the first year of His public ministry. He is considered the same person as John the Evangelist, John of Patmos and the Beloved Disciple. John's older brother was St. James the Great, another one of Jesus' Twelve Apostles. John is believed to be the longest living apostle and the only not to die a martyr's death. John and Peter were the only two apostles sent by Jesus to make preparations for the final Passover meal. According to legend, he was served poisoned wine, but survived because he blessed the wine before he put it to his lips; the poison rose from the chalice in the shape of a serpent. In his happy memory, Catholics bring wine to church, which the priest blesses, turning it into a sacramental called the "Love of St. John."

Feast of the Holy Innocents, also called Childermas, or Innocents’ Day, commemorating the massacre of the

children by King Herod in his attempt to kill the infant Jesus. These children were regarded by the early church as the first martyrs, but it is uncertain when the day was first kept as a saint’s day. At first it may have been celebrated with Epiphany, but by the 5th century it was kept as a separate festival. In Rome it was a day of fasting and mourning.

The Greek Liturgy asserts that Herod killed 14,000 boys, the Syrians speak of 64,000, and many medieval authors speak of 144,000, according to Rev. 14:3. Modern writers reduce the number considerably, since Bethlehem was a rather small town.

THE SAINTS OF THE WEEK

Acts of the Apostles says that Stephen was a man filled with grace and power, who worked great wonders among the

people. Certain Jews, members of the Synagogue of Roman Freedmen, debated with Stephen, but proved no match for the wisdom and spirit with which he spoke.

SCOB SCHOOL

“A Nurturing Family: Balancing Education and Faith in Jesus Christ, in a caring environment.” (St. Catherine of Bologna School Mission Statement encapsulated.)

IT’S A SMALL WORLD – MEETING OUR NEIGHBORS ACROSS THE GLOBE

“Hour of Code” 2017 was a great success! December 4-10 was Computer Science Education Week. SCOBS students enrolled in the worldwide initiative of Code.org which introduced over 400 million students to fundamental 21st century skills. Appropriate activities and tutorials introduced students K-8 to the fundamentals of computer programming. Students will continue exploring programming throughout the year. SCOBS is on the map @ www.hourofcode.com – check us out. Along with our neighbors across the globe, we celebrate the birth of Jesus - “That all may be one.”

THE JOY OF THE SEASON – HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS! In preparation for the majestic feast of Christmas, SCOBS students prepared in a variety of ways. Following our Advent prayer service, Christmas scenes, ornaments, poems and narratives were crafted by students in Art and LA classes and homerooms. All grades participated in the annual Christmas Show and Nativity Pageant. Kindergarten enjoyed breakfast with Santa and Mrs. Claus. The school gathered for our Christmas Prayer Service in which we recalled the tradition of St. Francis of celebrating the birth of the child Jesus with a live Nativity. A Christmas sing-a-long, class parties, and junior high Christmas dance rounded out our day of celebration on December 22nd. BEST WISHES FOR A BLESSED AND JOYOUS CHRISTMAS from our SCOBS family to yours.

The True Spirit of Christmas

The celebration of Christmas can be meaningless and maddening, especially if you don’t have access to its deep layers of history and symbolism. You may feel frantic looking for gifts, rather than understanding that gift-giving is a way of being in family, friendship, and community, and that Christmas is a time for modeling a Utopian gift economy. You may feel that Christmas is a license to eat and drink too much, and yet the idea of transcending ordinary limits has been part of solstice celebrations for hundreds of years. You don’t have to go to literal extremes, but you can stretch your personal rules, based on the idea of liminal time, a period of days or weeks set aside to celebrate an important aspect of life. You could aim for a paradoxical “moderate excess.” It would be better to enter the spirit of the liminal rather than fight it. Step outside of ordinary time: be of good cheer, give some real gifts, make some good food, and spend more time than usual with friends and family. The best way to deal with the exhaustion of the holidays is not to withdraw but to enter them thoughtfully.

A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE FROM ALL THE ST. CATHERINE KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS. REMEMBER TO KEEP CHRIST IN CHRISTMAS !!!!!!

“Jesus, Mary and Joseph, I love you very much.

I beg you to spare the life of the unborn baby

that I have spiritually adopted who is in danger of abortion.”

Have you joined us in the Spiritual Adoption program? Please consider making a commitment to say one simple prayer each day for the next seven months to save the life of a fetus in danger of being aborted. During the Third Month During this third month, your spiritually adopted baby is quite active, although his mother won’t feel him for another couple of months. If the mother’s womb had a window you could watch your baby squint, swallow and move his tongue. Since the brain has been developed to allow independent movement of limbs, the tiny infant can turn his head, curl and fan his toes and open and close his mouth with or without puckering his lips. If the palm of his hand is stroked the fetus will make a tight fist. The movements of the baby are more energetic, graceful and fluid and less mechanical, very much like an astronaut floating and enjoying his gravity-free space capsule. Your spiritually adopted child has formed his own fingerprints. Fingernails and toenails appear. The baby now sleeps and wakes, breathes amniotic fluid regularly to exercise and develop the respiratory system, and also drinks, digests and excretes portions of the fluid. Nerve and muscle connections have increased threefold. This child is approximately two inches in length and now weighs one ounce. Let us continue to pray for the boy or girl we have adopted spiritually that his or her parents will choose life for their baby.

SPIRITUAL ADOPTION Christmas is a holy time that invites you to reflect on the most important issues in life, especially escaping the darkness of ignorance and arriving at the light of new understanding and possibility. It ritualizes the birth of your soul. Remember that ritual is an ordinary action carried out with special attention to its poetics that has far greater significance than would appear. Christmas has many rich layers: warm memories of my family from childhood; the brilliant, lighted and festive Christmas Mass; carols and other music associated with the season and somehow of the highest quality; and the theology of incarnation - living a spiritual life deep in the ordinary world. For our lives, incarnation means being focused on the spiritual and the eternal but bringing that focus deep into life. It also means having the capacity to be both carnal and spiritual, in love with life and yet able to connect with the eternal and the divine. This is really the heart of the Christmas theological message: Live in two worlds that overlap but are distinct. Don’t be a materialist, but don’t sacrifice your ordinary physical life for any spiritual ideal. Be lowly and lofty. This teaching, like all good theology, is not aimed only at those who dedicate themselves to the Gospel teaching, but to all people, from believers to skeptics. I wish that those who associate Christmas too closely with Christianity would look deep deeper and see the universal symbols and truths contained in the festival. Isn’t that why so many people of different backgrounds are drawn to Christmas—because they see the natural symbols and basic realities celebrated at this time of year? If you take Christmas to heart and get past the anxieties in arranging for gifts and parties, you will rediscover yourself every year at this time and experience a birth in yourself, just like the one so beautifully described in the Gospel stories. It will be a celebration of both the birth of Jesus and the birth of your own soul.

A Christmas Dilemma: As a teenager my son was intrigued by the power of the ham radio. He learned the Morse code and built a radio from a kit. After he went off to college we found holes drilled through the outside wall of his bedroom and our trees wrapped in yards of wire. I guess it all worked since he made friends with fellow radio operators around the world, and even relayed messages from Peru after an especially devastating earthquake. Now, as a dad, he was anxious to introduce his two daughters to the science of this long-distant communication. One day his signal was answered by a scientist at a South Pole research station. After they signed off, his youngest daughter thought for a moment and then said. “Dad, if we can use the radio to reach the South Pole, why can’t we use it to reach the North Pole and talk to Santa Claus?” This Christmas our prayers don’t need the aid of electronics, Morse code, and wire-wrapped trees to reach God. We don’t even need an app on an iPhone. God is always waiting to hear from us, and if we listen with our hearts we will hear him

Are you a good reader? Can you overcome the fear of speaking to a large group? Are you a faithful parishioner that would like to become more involved in St. Catherine’s parish? If you are 16 years or older and answered yes to anyone of these questions, you might want to join our lector ministry. Training and reading support will be provided. If you are interested, please call Karyn at 973-839-7791.
