Christmas 2016 ~ Christus Natus Est ~

“Glory to God in the highest and on earth Peace”

Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,

In the midst of darkening skies the Light is come! Over two thousand years ago in the village of Beit Sa-

hour, not far from Bethlehem, an angel appeared to a group of lowly men and women who were tending sheep.

These were people who would have been looked down upon because of their menial task of raising the animals that

would be used in the Temple sacrifices. Imagine their joy at the news that the One who would save them, EM-

MANUEL, had been born in the city of David, very close to where they were. The sign that this was true was that

they would find an infant wrapped in swaddling cloths lying in a manger, a container used for feeding animals. The

shepherds, hoping for liberation from the oppression of their burdened life, went running to the manger. These

were the first to receive the message of the birth of the Savior, before any kings or wise men would arrive and see

the Messiah these men, women and children of the fields were the first to see the Christ, the Lamb of God who

would take away the sins of the world.

Jesus was born in history so that he might teach us how better to be children of God, brothers and sisters in

the one family of God. He comes to show us the Father’s mercy, becoming himself the door of Mercy through

which we enter into salvation. The sign is the same as that received by the shepherds, a child in a manger, the God

of Merciful Love. “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not

perish but have eternal life. For God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world

might be saved through him.” (John 3:16-17)

At this time of year we all receive many requests for financial assistance. As much as possible it is our duty

and salvation to do what we can. In your generosity, we ask that you not forget the retired priests of the Archdio-

cese in the Christmas collection. Also, please use the enclosed envelope at your discretion to help alleviate the ex-

penses of the Parish. It is here in the church that we gather to celebrate in a very special way God’s love for us.

Our Offertory at the Christmas Masses is given entirely to care for the retired priests of the Archdiocese. As has

been done in the past few years, the money from the Kissing of the Baby Jesus will be sent to a charity that pro-

vides for the needs of children.

As we pray for each other in a true sense of gift giving and Christian charity may you, and those you love,

know the JOY and PEACE of that first Christmas, which Joseph and Mary and the shepherds in the fields experi-

enced. We pray that the Peace & Blessings of our loving God may be yours abundantly at Christmas and in the

coming year.

Sincerely,

Fr. Walter Carreiro, Fr. Cristiano Barbosa, Fr. Ray Kiley, the Parish Staff & Members of the Shalom Community

P.S. I recently met with a few concerned parishioners to look at ways to facilitate repairs and modifications to the church

interior. There are still a few problem areas, especially with water leaks, but we hope to come up with a plan very soon and

will keep you informed!

Natal 2015 ~ Christus Natus Est ~

“Glória a Deus nas Alturas e Paz na terra”

Queridos Irmãos e Irmãs em Cristo, Cristo nasceu! Há mais de dois mil anos na aldeia de Beit Sahour, perto de Belém, um anjo apareceu a um

grupo de homens e mulheres que estavam vigiando o rebanho. Eram ignorados por criar animais embora que

fossem usados nos sacrifícios do Templo. Imagine a alegria de ouvir as notícias que Aquele que lhes salvaria,

EMANUEL, nasceu na cidade de David. O Cristo estava perto não só de onde estavam fisicamente mas também

aos seus corações. O sinal do que era verdade foi que achariam uma criança envolta em panos numa manjedoura,

onde comem os animais. Os pastores, esperando a libertação da opressão, correram para a manjedoura. Estes foram

os primeiros em receber a mensagem do nascimento do Salvador, antes de qualquer rei ou Mago chegasse para ver

o Messias, o Rei recentemente nascido. Estes homens, mulheres e crianças dos campos tiveram a primeira

experiência do Cristo, o Cordeiro de Deus que tira os pecados do mundo.

Jesus nasceu em história para nos ensinar como melhor ser filhos e filhas de Deus, irmãos e irmãs numa

família de Deus. Ele vem nos mostrar a misericórdia do Pai, tornando se mesmo a porta da Misericórdia pela qual

entramos na salvação. O sinal que nós recebemos é o mesmo que os pastores receberam, uma criança deitada numa

manjedoura, o Deus de Amor Misericordioso. “Tanto amou Deus o mundo, que lhe entregou seu Filho Unigénito, a

fim de que tudo o que nele crê não se perca, mas tenha a vida eterna.” (João 3: 16-17)

Nesta altura do ano, todos nós recebemos pedidos de assistência financeira. Quanto possível é o nosso dever

e salvação de ajudar o mais que pudermos especialmente durante esta quadra natalícia. Na vossa generosidade

peço-vos que não se esqueçam dos sacerdotes reformados da Arquidiocese de Boston nas Missas de Natal.

Em todas as Missas haverá uma só colecta para este fim. Peço também que não se esqueçam das necessidades da

paróquia e de usarem o envelope incluído e para fazer uma generosa oferta para assim aliviar as despesas da nossa

Paróquia. É aqui na Igreja que nós nos juntamos para celebrar numa maneira especial o Amor de Deus para nós. As

ofertas feitas nas Missas do dia de Natal são totalmente entregues à Arquidiocese para ajudar aos sacerdotes

reformados. Como temos feito estes últimos anos o dinheiro do beijar do Menino Jesus será enviada para uma

caridade que dê ajuda a crianças.

Neste tempo em que damos ofertas uns aos outros, num verdadeiro sentido de caridade Cristã, rezemos pelo

nosso próximo pedindo que a Alegria e a Paz daquele primeiro Natal encha seus corações. Pedimos que a Paz e as

Bênçãos do nosso Deus de Amor estejam abundantemente convosco neste Natal e ao longo do Ano Novo.

Sinceramente,

Pe. Walter Carreiro, Pe. Cristiano Barbosa, Pe. Ray Kiley, Funcionários Paroquiais e Membros da Comunidade Shalom

P.S. Recentemente me reuni com alguns paroquianos interessados em procurar formas de realizar reparos e modificações no

interior da igreja. Ainda existem algumas áreas problemáticas, especialmente com vazamentos de água, mas esperamos che-

gar a um plano muito em breve. Irei mantê-los informados!

The Nativity of the Lord (Christmas) (Cycle A)

As we observe in today's reading, the Gospel of John in-cludes highly philosophical and theological language. One example that particularly stands out is John's use of the ex-pression, “Word of God.” This expression (logos in the Greek) borrows from a concept found in both Jewish and Greek thought. In Jewish thought, this phrase describes God taking action—for example, in the Creation story and in the Wisdom literature. In Greek, or Hellenistic, thought, the logos was understood as an intermediary between God and humanity. John and others in the early Church adopted this language to describe God's incarnation in Jesus. As the term was used to express the trinitarian faith of Christians, the word Logos came to be equated with the Second Person of the Trinity. In this prologue to the Gospel of John, the main themes that will be developed in his Gospel are introduced. These themes are presented as dualities: light/darkness, truth/falsehood, life/death, and belief/unbelief. We also hear in this prologue a unique aspect of John's Gospel—the motif of testimony. John the Baptist was sent by God to testify about Jesus, the light. Others in this Gospel will also offer testimo-ny about Jesus. The reader is invited to accept this testimo-ny, which bears witnesses to Jesus, the Son of God. But even more directly, Jesus' action and words will themselves testify to his identity with God as God's Incarnate Word. Thinking about Jesus' birth in these theological and cosmo-logical terms seems particularly appropriate as we celebrate the feast of Christmas in the darkness of winter. At this time, nature itself seems to remind us of the darkness of sin. Into this darkness, in the midst of our sinfulness, God comes to dwell among us. John's Gospel reminds us that through the Incarnation, God saves us from the darkness of sin and makes us his children.

Solenidade do Natal do Senhor (Ciclo A) A liturgia deste dia convida-nos a contemplar o amor de Deus, manifestado na incarnação de Je-sus… Ele é a “Palavra” que Se fez pessoa e veio habitar no meio de nós, a fim de nos oferecer a vida em plenitude e nos elevar à dignidade de “filhos de Deus”. A primeira leitura anuncia a chegada do Deus lib-ertador. Ele é o rei que traz a paz e a salvação, pro-porcionando ao seu Povo uma era de felicidade sem fim. O profeta convida, pois, a substituir a tristeza pela alegria, o desalento pela esperança. A segunda leitura apresenta, em traços largos, o plano salvador de Deus. Insiste, sobretudo, que es-se projecto alcança o seu ponto mais alto com o envio de Jesus, a “Palavra” de Deus que os homens devem escutar e acolher. O Evangelho desenvolve o tema esboçado na se-gunda leitura e apresenta a “Palavra” viva de Deus, tornada pessoa em Jesus. Sugere que a missão do Filho/”Palavra” é completar a criação primeira, eliminando tudo aquilo que se opõe à vida e cri-ando condições para que nasça o Homem Novo, o homem da vida em plenitude, o homem que vive uma relação filial com Deus.

We would like to thank all who participated to our Family Breakfast and wish you Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Classes will start at January 8.

Meet Msgr. McDonough— A Priest and a GeneralAs a native of Boston, Msgr. John P. McDonough never dreamed he would travel the world, bringing the presence of Christ to our military serving abroad. But for thirty years, that’s exactly what he did. As a two-star general, Msgr. McDonough’s call as a military chaplain was to ensure that men and women were able to practice their faith—Catholic or otherwise—as they served their country.

Now at 88 years of age, Msgr. McDonough re�ects on a priesthood well-lived and well-served. He resides at Regina Cleri, a retirement home for senior priests in Boston, where he ministers to his brother priests, celebrates Mass with them daily, and continues traveling to parishes around the Archdiocese to assist with services.

To help ensure priests like Msgr. McDonough are cared for as they age, please support the Christmas collection this year.

To see Msgr. McDonough’s full video story, visit clergytrust.org.
