As I relinquish the leadership of Pro-Life of St. William, my heartfelt thanks and prayers go out to the parish for their generous and unwavering support of our spiritual and charitable efforts. The past twelve years have seen us grow together and your willingness and enthusiasm to be a Pro-Life people has been an inspiration to me. Thank you. G. B. Dyer

Society of St. Vincent de Paul

Advent symbolizes our human condition. We long. We hope. We rejoice in what we have. We yearn for what we have not. Even nature conspires during Advent time to make us feel our human incompleteness. As the darkness of winter descends, we long for the light. As cold numbs us, we yearn for the warmth of God’s love. As plants and leaves die, sometimes with a final flash of brilliance, we hope for resurrection and new life. The Lord is about to create something new. Isaiah cherishes this theme. He repeats it again and again. “See, I am doing a new deed, even now it comes to light: Can you not see it? Yes, I am making a road in the wilderness, paths in the wilds.” (Maloney, Seasons in Spirituality, p.49) Si usted está en necesidad de asistencia, por favor, consulte Agustín Contreras, 205-363-2294 o en el Centro el martes desde 4-6 pm.

TREASURES FROM OUR TRADITION Long ago in northern Europe, the growing dark and winter weather in Advent forced people to remove the wheels from their carts and replace them with snow runners. The wheels were hung high in the rafters of the house, fitted out with lanterns, and wound tightly with evergreen boughs. The first wreaths were windows into heaven, a source of light, a comforting sign of the victory of the light of Christ over our world’s dark wildernesses, its mountainous obstacles, its valleys of need. The Advent wreath started in the home, and only later appeared in church. Its four candles represent the four Sundays of our journey: typically three purple, one rose. Why not set a wreath in your own home as a place for Advent prayer? Don’t let a shortage of purple candles discourage you: some use a deep blue, others have white candles and weave blue and purple flowers, seashells, and pine cones into the green. When the sun sets tonight, light a single candle, sing a verse of a well-loved Advent hymn, and name a mountain to be leveled, a valley to be filled. —James Field, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE El significado de la palabra “¡Adviento!” es muy interesante. Viene del latín y quiere decir “Allí viene” o “Ya está llegando”. Pero, ¿de quién hablamos cuando proclamamos “adviento”? ¿Del Rey de la Gloria?, ¿del Príncipe de la Paz?, ¿del Hijo del Dios Altísimo?, ¿del Salvador de Israel? Sí, sí, sí y otra vez, sí, pero más todavía del Hijo del Hombre, del niñito de María. Allí viene y ya está llegando. Tenemos que estar preparados. Pero ¿cómo prepararnos para la llegada de un rey que es pobre?, ¿de un príncipe que nació entre una mula y un buey? ¿de un niñito que ya es todo un hombre y además es Dios? He allí el dilema del Adviento cristiano. Es un llamado a vivir la paradoja de un tiempo que está a medias, donde el Reino de los Cielos ya existe pero no en su plenitud. Es un llamado a buscar en el templo, en el mall, en el barrio, en el hogar y en el propio corazón, para ver si “allí viene” el dueño de la casa. Es un llamado a estar atentos y vigilantes. —Fray Gilberto Cavazos‑Glz, OFM, Copyright © J. S. Paluch Co.

From the Pastor/Del Pastor

In Advent, we celebrate our hopes for the Lord to come more fully into our lives. The first reading is Isaiah, voicing the hope of sinners for a redeemer. Unlike Isaiah, we know that God has come to bring us back to him, when he sent his Son Jesus to save us. Our faith in Jesus leads us to a new way of looking at the world. We can see what God is doing as well as remembering what God has done. Like the gatekeepers in the gospel parable, we need to keep our eyes open for him. When we only look out for ourselves, we may miss the signs of God’s presence around us. Instead of looking at the difficulties of life as obstacles, we can watch for them as opportunities to stretch our faith, to rely on God, or to show God’s love to a friend. The new translation of the Mass that begins today can be an opportunity to stretch our faith and our understanding of the Eucharist. The Corinthians were also watching for the Lord to come. They were thinking of Jesus coming in glory. Though we don’t see the full glory of the Lord, part of that glory is his presence in the sacraments. In them we celebrate not just the coming of the Lord, but his working in the world. He shares his life with us in Baptism, gives us his Spirit in Confirmation and himself in Eucharist, heals us in Reconciliation and the Anointing of the Sick, and calls us to make him present to others in Holy Orders and Matrimony. You could almost say his second coming is taking place now. Watch for it.

Ladies Sodality Day of Reflection Thursday December 8th All are welcome to join the Ladies on their annual Day of Reflection. The day will begin with Mass of The Immaculate Conception at 8:30 am in St. William. Following Mass, seminarian Roy Recio will speak on Advent in Craven Hall. The day will end with lunch at the Rock House Café in Guntersville.

En Adviento, celebramos nuestras esperanzas de que el Señor venga más plenamente en nuestras vidas. La primera lectura es Isaías, expresando la esperanza de los pecadores para un redentor. A diferencia de Isaías, sabemos que Dios ha venido a traernos de nuevo a él, cuando envió a su Hijo Jesús para salvarnos. Nuestra fe en Jesús nos lleva a una nueva forma de mirar el mundo. Podemos ver lo que Dios está haciendo, así como recordar lo que Dios ha hecho. Al igual que los guardianes de la parábola del evangelio, tenemos que mantener los ojos abiertos para él. Cuando sólo miramos por nosotros mismos, podemos perder los signos de la presencia de Dios que nos rodean. En vez de mirar las dificultades de la vida como un obstáculo, podemos observarlas como una oportunidad para ampliar nuestra fe, a confiar en Dios, o para mostrar el amor de Dios a un amigo. Los corintios estaban también atentos a la vendida del Señor. Ellos estaban pensando en la venida de Jesús en la gloria. A pesar de que no podemos ver la plena gloria del Señor, una parte de esa gloria es su presencia en los sacramentos. En ellos celebramos, no sólo la venida del Señor, sino su trabajo en el mundo. Él comparte su vida con nosotros en el Bautismo, nos da su Espíritu en la Confirmación y da sí mismo en la Eucaristía, nos cura en la Reconciliación y en la Unción de los enfermos, y nos llama a hacerlo presente a los demás en la Orden y en el Matrimonio. Casi se podría decir que su segunda venida ya está ocurriendo ahora. Estén atentos.

Please plan to attend the Advent Penance Service on Tuesday, December 13th at 7:00 pm at St. William. Several priests will be on hand for confessions. The Lord is my shepherd; there is nothing I shall want. Is Jesus the Shepherd in our marriage? Do we know what He asks of us in our Sacrament of Marriage?
