Pastor’s Corner<br />
Dear Brothers & Sisters in Christ<br />
Most of us have had dreams that were very realistic<br />
and vivid. We wake up asking ourselves, "Was that<br />
a dream or a real memory?" Most of the time,<br />
however, dreams take on a fantastic, weird,<br />
sometimes comical, sometimes sad or frightening<br />
twist. There may be shreds of truth or real people or<br />
events, but things are just not completely reflective<br />
of reality. If I dreamt that Norm called me on a cell<br />
phone, it would not exactly lead me to believe that I<br />
should be awaiting a call at some point from my<br />
Beagle!<br />
Dreams are not really a reliable source of truth or<br />
reality. They can point to some things below the<br />
surface that might be affecting us and a vivid,<br />
realistic dream can affect us. If we have had a<br />
particularly scary or sad dream, we can feel that<br />
emotionally. But, it's just a dream. Dreams are a<br />
function of our psyche that take in events, thoughts,<br />
memories, etc. that happen in reality and are<br />
jumbled up and regurgitated into our unconscious<br />
state during sleep. Most of our dreams, in fact, are<br />
not remembered. So, why would Joseph make a<br />
decision to stay with Mary based upon a dream of<br />
an angel giving him advice?<br />
Sometimes, when we are just newly awake, our<br />
hearts and minds can be more easily raised in prayer<br />
to God. There is a quietness and peace that can be<br />
fertile ground for God's grace. I am not suggesting<br />
that every morning that this will happen, but every<br />
once in a while, it can. Perhaps this was Joseph's<br />
experience. His acceptance of the angel's urgent<br />
message was more about discernment than<br />
following a dream.<br />
<strong>St</strong>. Ignatius of Loyola explains “discernment of<br />
spirits” as examining one's inner reactions, or<br />
movements, particularly in prayer. We can have<br />
many such reactions, but on some occasions grace<br />
can be so quietly strong that one has a certitude<br />
within that this experience is not fantasy or<br />
imaginary, but real.<br />
4 th Sunday of Advent<br />
This sounds like what was going on with Joseph's<br />
dream. He had no doubt about the validity of the<br />
angel's message. Grace had assured him that this<br />
experience was real.<br />
Caution is needed here. We can all convince<br />
ourselves that anything can be an angelic message<br />
from God if we think about it long enough! That is<br />
where discernment comes in. Experiences that are<br />
of God are quiet, they lead toward God, not away<br />
from Him and if valid, have lasting results that<br />
endure. Anything to the contrary would reflect<br />
experiences not of God. Someone discerning a<br />
religious vocation, for example, needs to examine<br />
this possible calling over a period of time. Spiritual<br />
direction by an experienced spiritual director is key<br />
here in discerning God's will.<br />
In Joseph’s case, we can see a quiet assurance of<br />
God's presence. He was not left feeling unsure or<br />
doubtful. Joseph’s dream was as sure as a mother's<br />
face or the voice of a close friend. As a man of deep<br />
faith, Joseph already had a deep trust in God’s love.<br />
He did not experience a diminishment of that trust.<br />
Rather, the angel's message only confirmed<br />
Joseph’s faith in God and he accepted it as God's<br />
will. Often, it is not just in one experience, or time<br />
of prayer that we suddenly realize God's will. It is<br />
in the ongoing string of events reflected upon in the<br />
context of faith and prayer within our everyday life<br />
that, like Joseph, we grow in our understanding of<br />
the will of God.<br />
Have we tuned in to God's presence during these<br />
weeks of Advent? Has the busyness of our<br />
preparations for Christmas distracted us? Have we<br />
been able to discern a particular grace or gift that<br />
God wants to give us (for example a spirit of joy,<br />
gratitude, etc.)? May we continue to discover as<br />
Advent gives way to Christmas God’s plan for us,<br />
as Joseph did through trust, faith and prayer.<br />
In Christ’s Peace,<br />

A Message from H.O.P.E.<br />
Due to the merging of <strong>St</strong>. Alice with<br />
<strong>St</strong>. <strong>Laurence</strong> Parish some of our needs are<br />
increasing. We are hoping to reform the H.O.P.E.<br />
Program to include new members of <strong>St</strong>. Alice who<br />
could volunteer to take parishioners to Mass at <strong>St</strong>.<br />
<strong>Laurence</strong> on Saturday evenings or Sunday mornings<br />
with them. This becomes necessary because the<br />
English mass at <strong>St</strong>. Alice church is being<br />
discontinued starting in December. We are grateful<br />
for all the help. We would appreciate if the older<br />
members of <strong>St</strong>. Alice that have no way to get to<br />
Mass on Sundays would call Sister Teresa at 610-<br />
449-0600, ext. 216 and give your name and phone<br />
number. We will try to get help for you<br />
to come to Mass.<br />
