From our Associate Pastor:
In ancient times, well-known teachers would often use the art of storytelling to teach valuable life lessons to their students. In one such instance, a master gathered his students together to discuss "the battle" that goes on inside every human being. The master told the students that the battle is between two wolves that exist in all of us:
The Evil wolf: Its characteristics are envy, lies, greed, self-pity, inferiority, false pride, anger, jealousy, regret, arrogance, guilt, resentment, excessive ego.
The Good wolf: It represents peace, empathy, love, hope, humility, kindness, generosity, truth, faith, and compassion.
As the story concluded, an inquisitive student spoke up and asked, "Which one wins the battle?"
The wise Master replied, "The one you feed."
This legendary story has an important message for all of us. We need to focus diligently on feeding only the wolf we want to win the battle. Which wolves do you perceive to be the one worthy of feeding?
The source of our strength comes from the food that we choose. What we feed grows, and what grows becomes the dominating force within our lives. Which wolf wins the battle in your mind? Proverbs 23:7 says, "As a man thinks in his heart, so is he." And Jesus said that the lamp of the body is the eye. When your eye is good your body will be full of light. When your eye is bad your body will be full of darkness (Lk 11:34.). If our sinful nature controls our mind, there is death. But if the Holy Spirit controls our mind, there is life and peace. With God's help, you'll begin to control your thoughts instead of allowing your thoughts to control you (Rom 8:6).Mother Teresa once said, “Watch your thoughts, they may become words; watch your words, they may become your actions; watch your action, they may become your habits; watch your habits, they may become your character; watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.” Who is shaping your thoughts? It’s you. How are you shaping? With evil or good, choice is yours. Mathew Henry says, "The more we follow that which is good, the faster and the further we shall flee from that which is evil".
Happy Advent, Fr. Sudhakar

The Divine Mercy Chaplet:
In reparation for the Catholic Church in light of recent reports of misconduct.
In prayerful response to the recent reports of misconduct by members of the clergy in the Church in the United States, we will be praying the Divine Mercy chaplet 10 minutes before our weekend Masses for the weeks to come. The chaplet was given to St. Faustina Kowalska in Poland in the 1930's through revelations of Jesus. The chaplet is prayed using a rosary and is easy to learn. Prayer aids will be in the missalettes. In the devotion, we pray for God's mercy for ourselves and the needs within the Church as well. Please do join us as we pray.

Did You Know? GAUDETE SUNDAY
The Third Sunday of Advent is a day of joy in the midst of our spiritual preparations for Christmas. The Liturgical Color is rose as is seen in the vestments of clergy and the third candle of the Advent wreath. It is traditionally called Gaudete Sunday. From the Entrance Antiphon, “Rejoice in the Lord always; again I say rejoice! The Lord is near.” As we move into the second part of Advent; there is a sense of joyful expectation, an awareness the fulfillment of God’s great plan for us is near.
