who are in need of assistance at this time of year. These<br />

collections were part of our Advent giving which was<br />

our Outreach Project for December.<br />

THE <strong>PA</strong>RISHES IN <strong>PA</strong>STORAL PLANNING AREA<br />

(P<strong>PA</strong>) 630 have begun their self study. The purpose of the<br />

study is to address the shortage of priests while at the same<br />

time maintaining vibrant parishes. Projections for Diocesan<br />

priests were given at the meeting. We will have half the<br />

number of priests by 2020. The result of this current self<br />

study will, barring any unforeseen circumstances result in<br />

some parish merges NOT in any parish closures. The<br />

committee, which includes 2 representatives from each<br />

parish in P<strong>PA</strong> 630- along with the area pastors, stressed the<br />

need for a strong Catholic presence in South Philadelphia.<br />

The goal of the self-study committee is to plan for a<br />

continuation of that strong presence.<br />

BRING SOMEONE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS<br />

Christmas is a time for family & friends to celebrate <strong>and</strong><br />

spend time together. Please encourage your family members<br />

<strong>and</strong> friends to come to church at Christmas <strong>and</strong> to stay home<br />

all year long. This would be a beautiful gift to the Christ<br />

Child.<br />

FOURTH SUNDAY OF ADVENT<br />

1) Isaiah 7:10-14<br />

2) Romans 1:1-7<br />

3) Matthew 1:18-24<br />

God himself will give a sign: a virgin shall<br />

conceive <strong>and</strong> bear a son.<br />

Today’s readings remind us that God has been<br />

faithful to the covenant promises he made to this<br />

Chosen People, Israel. Christ is the long awaited<br />

Emmanuel-God with us!<br />

LITURGY OF THE WORD<br />

Isaiah recalls the promise God made to Israel <strong>and</strong> to<br />

the royal house of David: a virgin shall conceive<br />

<strong>and</strong> bear a son. Paul, writing to the Romans, sets<br />

out on his mission to proclaim the Risen Christ to<br />

the Gentiles. Matthew tells how Joseph, espoused<br />

to Mary, comes to know that the child she has<br />

conceived is the fulfillment of the promise.<br />

POOR BOXES<br />

St. Vincent de Paul said “ We must worry more<br />

about enlarging The Kingdom of God than adding<br />

to our own possessions”. Your donations in the<br />

poor box help the needy <strong>and</strong> the poor in our parish<br />

<strong>and</strong> our community.<br />

TYSON PROJECT A+ PROGRAM<br />

Our school is participating in the Tyson Project A+<br />

Program. Through this program, we can raise<br />

money toward supplies, school programs, or<br />

anything else we choose. Just clip <strong>and</strong> collect<br />

Tyson Project A+ LABELS From Tyson product<br />

packages <strong>and</strong> send them to school with your child.<br />

Spread the word to your friends <strong>and</strong> relatives.<br />

A FAMILY PERSPECTIVE<br />

Finding real peace <strong>and</strong> joy in the Lord requires that<br />

we share generously with others. The many<br />

decisions made within the family to relinquish<br />

power, possessions <strong>and</strong> preferences for the good of<br />

others helps all to know “the Lord is near”<br />
