May the God of peace make us completely holy. May God keep us blameless in spirit, soul and body for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Forever faithful is the One who calls us—God our Father! Expectant, let us live in joyful hope for the revelation of the glory of our God and Savior, Christ Jesus! To him be glory forever! Come, Lord Jesus! Your grace be with us all. —From Come, Lord Jesus by Lucien Deiss, CSSp, copyright 1976, 1981, Lucien Deiss. Published by World Library Publications. p. 127

Recyclable Bins Update
As you may notice, we no longer
have the large receptacles in our
parking lot for paper recycling
and clothing donations. They
were permanently removed
because they were not costly
effective, they continually
caused damaged to the pavement and there was always
an unsightly amount of overflow strewed around the
receptacles.
The St. Vincent De Paul Society, an honorable Catholic
agency, gladly accepts such donations at the following
locations. They also
provide a pick-up service
for large items.
Aviso sobre los Contenedores de Reciclaje
Como habrán notado, ya no tenemos en el estacionamiento
los contenedores grandes para reciclaje de papel y
donativos de ropa. Se tomo la decisión de quitarlos
permanentemente puesto que era mucho el daño que
causaban al pavimento y la mala imagen que daban,
porque siempre había basura tirada alrededor.
La Sociedad de San Vicente de Paul, en una institución
católica caritativa que acepta donativos de ropa y
muebles, además de que pueden ir a
recoger sus donativos a domicilio, si no
pueden llevarlos a sus locales. Estas son
las dos mas cercanas a St. Ansgar:

Retirement Fund for Religious December 19 & 20 Collection
Please give to those who have given a lifetime.
“My life is tied to the liturgy and the Eucharist,” says Precious Blood Sister Ann Hipp, 95, who entered religious life in 1937. “It’s part of who we are as a community.” As a teacher for 50 years, she shared this love of the Eucharist with her students. At age 70, Sister Ann traded in her chalk for a sewing needle and today still helps craft altar cloths and vestments.
Like Sister Ann, tens of thousands of senior sisters, brothers, and religious order priests have dedicated their lives to sharing their faith. Generations of Catholics recall with gratitude their work in Catholic schools, hospitals, and social service agencies. Yet years of ministering for little or no pay came at a price, and now their religious communities lack adequate savings for retirement and eldercare. Your gift to the Retirement Fund for Religious helps provide prescription medications, nursing care, and more. Please be generous.
Over 93 percent of donations aid senior religious.
Fondo para la Jubilación de Religiosos
Colecta 19 & 20 de diciembre
Done a los que donaron su vida.
“Mi vida está vinculada a la liturgia y a la Eucaristía”, dice la religiosa de la Preciosa Sangre hermana Ann Hipp, de 95 años, quien entró al convento en 1937. “Es parte de lo que somos como comunidad”. Durante los 50 años que estuvo de maestra, ella compartió este amor a la Eucaristía con sus alumnos. A los 70, la hermana Ann cambió la tiza y la pizarra por una aguja de coser y hoy todavía ayuda a confeccionar manteles para el altar y vestimentas litúrgicas.
Al igual que la hermana Ann, decenas de miles de hermanas, hermanos y sacerdotes de órdenes religiosas ya ancianos han dedicado su vida a compartir su fe. Generaciones de católicos recuerdan con gratitud la labor que ellos desempeñaron en escuelas, hospitales y agencias de servicio social católicos. Sin embargo, años de servir por poca o ninguna paga han resultado en que ahora sus comunidades religiosas carecen de suficientes ahorros para la jubilación y el cuidado de sus ancianos. Su donativo al Fondo para la Jubilación de Religiosos ayuda con las recetas médicas, cuidados de enfermería y más. Les rogamos que sean generosos. Más del 93 por ciento de los donativos ayuda a los religiosos ancianos.

Programa de Adopción Espiritual Spiritual Adoption Program
Month 2 Keep praying for me! I am two months old now and
about 2 inches long. Look! You can see
my eyes, nose and mouth. I will use them to experience God’s world
after I am born
A Reminder
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.
Prayer of Achbishop Fulton J. Sheen
Please remember to pray daily for your Spiritual Adopted Baby and the baby’s mother and father. During your earthly life this spiritually adopted child of yours will be known only to God but in the world to come it is hoped that you will meet the child whose life was spared by your prayers and spend eternal happiness with them.
Mes 2 ¡Siga rezando
por mí! Ya tengo dos
meses de edad y mido casi 2
pulgadas. ¡Mira! Ya puedes ver
mis ojos, nariz y boca. Los usaré
para sentir el mundo de Dios después de que
nazca.
Recordatorio
Jesús, María y José, los amo mucho. Les suplico que salven la vida del bebé no nacido, al que he adoptado espiri-tualmente y que se encuentra en peligro de ser abortado.
Oracion del Arzobispo Fulton J. Sheen
Por favor recuerde de rezar diariamente por su bebe y por los padres también. Durante su vida terrenal, este niño será conocido solo por Dios, pero en el mundo que viene, se espera que usted pueda conocer al niño cuya vida salvo por medio de sus oraciones.
