Reading 1 Isaiah 56:1-3a, 6-8
(https://bible.usccb.org/bible/isaiah/56?1)

Thus says the LORD:
Observe what is right, do what is just;
for my salvation is about to come,
my justice, about to be revealed.
Blessed is the man who does this,
the son of man who holds to it;
Who keeps the sabbath free from profanation,
and his hand from any evildoing.
Let not the foreigner say,
when he would join himself to the LORD,
“The LORD will surely exclude me from his people.”

The foreigners who join themselves to the LORD,
ministering to him,
Loving the name of the LORD,
and becoming his servants–
All who keep the sabbath free from profanation
and hold to my covenant,
Them I will bring to my holy mountain
and make joyful in my house of prayer;
Their burnt offerings and sacrifices
will be acceptable on my altar,
For my house shall be called
a house of prayer for all peoples.
Thus says the Lord GOD,
who gathers the dispersed of Israel:
Others will I g
ather to him
besides those already gathered.

Gospel John 5:33-36
(https://bible.usccb.org/bible/john/5?33)

Jesus said to the Jews:
“You sent emissaries to John, and he testified to the truth.
I do not accept testimony from a human being,
but I say this so that you may be saved.
John was a burning and shining lamp,
and for a while you were content to rejoice in his light.
But I have testimony greater than John’s.
The works that the Father gave me to accomplish,
these works that I perform testify
on my behalf
that the Father has sent me.”

Reflections

My prayer…

Dear God, my Abba Father, Lord Jesus my Savior, Holy Spirit within me.
Most holy Father in Heaven, I do desire to come to know You and Your perfect and intimate love for me. Please open my mind and heart to You more fully this Advent season so that I can turn from all fading and passing lights of this world and come to the one and profound Light of Your loving Heart. Help me pass on this desire to each of mine. Bringing there focus, mind, heart and soul on to You.
Thank You for continuing to walk with me and mine. I see Your blessings and thank You over and over. Though there are anxious moments of doubt and impatience, Jesus I trust in You. That You will teach us in Your ways and truths. Guide and protect us. Accompanying us through each day.
Listen to our prayers. Especially for all of that have passed on to You.

Apostles (Nicene) Creed

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made. For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

Lords Prayer

Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

Hail Mary

Hail Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed are thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb Jesus.
Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.

Glory be to the Father

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
Amen.

O my Jesus

O my Jesus, have mercy on us. Forgive us our sins. Save us from the fires of hell. Take all souls into heaven, especially, those most in need of thy mercy.
Amen.

Salve Regina (Hail Holy Queen)

Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy, hail, our life, our sweetness and our hope. To thee do we cry, poor banished children of Eve: to thee do we send up our sighs, mourning and weeping in this vale of tears. Turn then, most gracious Advocate, thine eyes of mercy toward us, and after this our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of thy womb, Jesus, O merciful, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary!
Amen.

Anima Christi

Soul of Christ, make me holy. Body of Christ, save me. Blood of Christ, fill me with love. Water from Christ’s side, wash me. Passion of Christ, strengthen me. Good Jesus, hear me. Within your wounds, hide me. Never let me be parted from you. From the evil enemy, protect me. At the hour of my death, call me. And tell me to come to you. That with your saints I may praise you. Through all eternity.
Amen.

Angelus

V. The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary.
R. And she conceived of the Holy Spirit.
Hail Mary, full of grace,
The Lord is with Thee;

Today’s Responsorial Psalm…

Psalms 30:2 and 4, 5-6, 11-12a and 13b
(https://bible.usccb.org/bible/psalms/30?2)

R. (2a) I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me.

I will extol you, O Lord, for you drew me clear and did not let my enemies rejoice over me.O Lord, you brought me up from the nether world; you preserved me from among those going down into the pit.
R. I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me.

Sing praise to the Lord, you his faithful ones, and give thanks to his holy name.For his anger lasts but a moment; a lifetime, his good will.At nightfall, weeping enters in, but with the dawn, rejoicing.
R. I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me.

“Hear, O Lord, and have pity on me; O Lord, be my helper.”You changed my mourning into dancing; O Lord, my God, forever will I give you thanks.
R. I will praise you, Lord, for you have rescued me.

Reading I Isaiah 54:1-10
(https://bible.usccb.org/bible/isaiah/54?1)

Raise a glad cry, you barren one who did not bear, Break forth in jubilant song, you who were not in labor, For more numerous are the children of the deserted wife than the children of her who has a husband, says the Lord. Enlarge the space for your tent, spread out your tent cloths unsparingly; lengthen your ropes and make firm your stakes. For you shall spread abroad to the right and to the left; your descendants shall dispossess the nations and shall people the desolate cities.
Fear not, you shall not be put to shame; you need not blush, for you shall not be disgraced. The shame of your youth you shall forget, the reproach of your widowhood no longer remember. For he who has become your husband is your Maker; his name is the Lord of hosts; Your redeemer is the Holy One of Israel, called God of all the earth. The Lord calls you back, like a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, A wife married in youth and then cast off, says your God. For a brief moment I abandoned you, but with great tenderness I will take you back. In an outburst of wrath, for a moment I hid my face from you; But with enduring love I take pity on you, says the Lord, your redeemer.
This is for me like the days of Noah, when I swore that the waters of Noah should never again deluge the earth; So I have sworn not to be angry with you, or to rebuke you. Though the mountains leave their place and the hills be shaken, My love shall never leave you nor my covenant of peace be shaken,
says the Lord, who has mercy on you.

Gospel Luke 7:24-30
(https://bible.usccb.org/bible/luke/7?24)

When the messengers of John the Baptist had left,Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John. “What did you go out to the desert to see a reed swayed by the wind? Then what did you go out to see? Someone dressed in fine garments? Those who dress luxuriously and live sumptuouslyare found in royal palaces. Then what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet. This is the one about whom Scripture says:
Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, he will prepare your way before you.
I tell you,among those born of women, no one is greater than John;yet the least in the Kingdom of God is greater than he.”(All the people who listened, including the tax collectors,who were baptized with the baptism of John,acknowledged the righteousness of God;but the Pharisees and scholars of the law,who were not baptized by him,
rejected the plan of God for themselves.)

(https://bible.usccb.org/bible/isaiah/45?6)

I am the LORD, there is no other;I form the light, and create the darkness,I make well-being and create woe;I, the LORD, do all these things.Let justice descend, O heavens, like dew from above,like gentle rain let the skies drop it down.Let the earth open and salvation bud forth;let justice also spring up!I, the LORD, have created this.
For thus says the LORD,The creator of the heavens,who is God,The designer and maker of the earthwho established it,Not creating it to be a waste,but designing it be lived in:I am the LORD, and there is no other.
Who announced this from the beginningand foretold it from of old?Was it not I, the LORD,besides whom there is no other God?There is no just and saving God but me.
Turn to me and be safe,all you ends of the earth,for I am God; there is no other!By myself I swear,uttering my just decreeand my unalterable word:To me every knee shall bend;by me every tongue shall swear,Saying, “Only in the LORDare just deeds and power.Before him in shame shall comeall who vent their anger against him.In the LORD shall be the vindication and
the glory of all the descendants of Israel.”

Gospel Luke 7:18B-23
(https://bible.usccb.org/bible/luke/7?18)

At that time,
John summoned two of his disciples and sent them to the Lord to ask,
“Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?”
When the men came to the Lord, they said,
“John the Baptist has sent us to you to ask,
‘Are you the one who is to come, or should we look for another?’”
At that time Jesus cured many of their diseases, sufferings, and evil spirits;
he also granted sight to many who were blind.
And Jesus said to them in reply,
“Go and tell John what you have seen and heard:
the blind regain their sight,
the lame walk,
lepers are cleansed,
the deaf hear, the dead are raised,
the poor have the good news proclaimed to them.
And bless
ed is the one who takes no offense at me.”

Thus says the LORD:Woe to the city, rebellious and polluted,to the tyrannical city!She hears no voice,accepts no correction;In the LORD she has not trusted,to her God she has not drawn near.
For then I will change and purifythe lips of the peoples,That they all may call upon the name of the LORD,to serve him with one accord;From beyond the rivers of Ethiopiaand as far as the recesses of the North,they shall bring me offerings.
On that dayYou need not be ashamed of all your deeds,your rebellious actions against me;For then will I remove from your midstthe proud braggarts,And you shall no longer exalt yourselfon my holy mountain.But I will leave as a remnant in your midsta people humble and lowly,Who shall take refuge in the name of the LORD:the remnant of Israel.They shall do no wrongand speak no lies;Nor shall there be found in their mouthsa deceitful tongue;They shall pasture and
couch their flocks
with none to disturb them.

Gospel Matthew 21:28-32
(https://bible.usccb.org/bible/matthew/21?28)

Jesus said to the chief priests and the elders of the people:
“What is your opinion?
A man had two sons.
He came to the first and said,
‘Son, go out and work in the vineyard today.’
The son said in reply, ‘I will not,’
but afterwards he changed his mind and went.
The man came to the other son and gave the same order.
He said in reply, ‘Yes, sir,’ but did not go.
Which of the two did his father’s will?”
They answered, “The first.”
Jesus said to them, “Amen, I say to you,
tax collectors and prostitutes
are entering the Kingdom of God before you.
When John came to you in the way of righteousness,
you did not believe him;
but tax collectors and prostitutes did.
Yet even when you saw that,
you did
not later change your minds and believe him.”

Formed: The Faithful Remnant

How does God want you to prepare for Christmas? The remnant of Israel acts as a model and shows how God calls you to be faithful to him even when the majority is not. The key to this faithfulness is being humble and lowly of heart. When we realize everything we have is a gift from God, we grow in humility.

My prayer…

Dear God, my Abba Father, Lord Jesus my Savior, Holy Spirit within me.
Precious Lord, give me the grace I need to respond to every prompting of grace in my life. Help me to say “Yes” to You and to follow through with my actions. As I see more clearly the ways I have refused Your grace, give me courage and strength to change so as to more fully conform to Your perfect plan for my life. And as an example for each of mine.

Thank You for each blessing. Oh that You would continue to bless and protect me and mine from evil and illness. Teaching and guiding us each day. Let Your grace rain upon us. And may we be lights for Your Kingdom.
Hear my prayers, for each of mine, and all that have passed on to You. Mom, Dub, Dad, Abuelita and Abuelito, Titi Evelyn and Fernando, Nana and Coco, Titi Lisa and Manuel, Louie, David and David, Peggy, Terri and all those not listed but I remembered.

Reading 1 Zechariah 2:14-17
(https://bible.usccb.org/bible/zechariah/2?14)

Sing and rejoice, O daughter Zion!  See, I am coming to dwell among you, says the LORD. Many nations shall join themselves to the LORD on that day, and they shall be his people, and he will dwell among you, and you shall know that the LORD of hosts has sent me to you. The LORD will possess Judah as his portion in the holy land, and he will again choose Jerusalem. Silence, all mankind, in the presence of the LORD!
For he stirs forth from his holy dwelling.

Revelation 11:19a; 12:1-6a, 10ab
(https://bible.usccb.org//bible/revelation/11?19)

God’s temple in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant could be seen in the temple.
A great sign appeared in the sky, a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was with child and wailed aloud in pain as she labored to give birth. Then another sign appeared in the sky; it was a huge red dragon, with seven heads and ten horns, and on its heads were seven diadems. Its tail swept away a third of the stars in the sky and hurled them down to the earth. Then the dragon stood before the woman about to give birth, to devour her child when she gave birth.  She gave birth to a son, a male child, destined to rule all the nations with an iron rod. Her child was caught up to God and his throne. The woman herself fled into the desert where she had a place prepared by God.
Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: “Now have salvation and power come, and the King
dom of our God
and the authority of his Anointed.”

Gospel Luke 1:26-38
(https://bible.usccb.org/bible/luke/1?26)

The angel Gabriel was sent from God to a town of Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the house of David, and the virgin’s name was Mary. And coming to her, he said, “Hail, full of grace! The Lord is with you.” But she was greatly troubled at what was said and pondered what sort of greeting this might be. Then the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. Behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall name him Jesus. He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father, and he will rule over the house of Jacob forever, and of his Kingdom there will be no end.” But Mary said to the angel, “How can this be, since I have no relations with a man?” And the angel said to her in reply, “The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore the child to be born will be called holy, the Son of God. And behold, Elizabeth, your relative, has also conceived a son in her old age, and this is the sixth month for her who was called barren; for nothing will be impossible for God.” Mary said, “Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word.”
Then the angel departed from her.

Luke 1:39-47
(https://bible.usccb.org/bible/luke/1?39)

Mary set out and traveled to the hill country in haste to a town of Judah, where she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said, “Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. And how does this happen to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? For at the moment the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy. Blessed are you who believed that what was spoken to you by the Lord would be fulfilled.”
And Mary said:
“My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord;
my spirit rejoices in God my savior.”

Today’s verse…

Jesus said to them in reply,
"Go and tell John what you hear and see:
the blind regain their sight,
the lame walk,
lepers are cleansed,
the deaf hear,
the dead are raised,
and the poor have the good news proclaimed to them.
And blessed is the one who takes no offense at me."
Matthew 11:4-6

Gospel Matthew 11:2-11
(https://bible.usccb.org/bible/matthew/11?2)

When John the Baptist heard in prison of the works of the Christ,
he sent his disciples to Jesus with this question,
"Are you the one who is to come,
or should we look for another?"
Jesus said to them in reply,
"Go and tell John what you hear and see:
the blind regain their sight,
the lame walk,
lepers are cleansed,
the deaf hear,
the dead are raised,
and the poor have the good news proclaimed to them.
And blessed is the one who takes no offense at me."

As they were going off,
Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John,
"What did you go out to the desert to see?
A reed swayed by the wind?
Then what did you go out to see?
Someone dressed in fine clothing?
Those who wear fine clothing are in royal palaces.
Then why did you go out? To see a prophet?
Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.
This is the one about whom it is written:
Behold, I am sending my messenger ahead of you;
he will prepare your way before you.
Amen, I say to you,
among those born of women
there has been none greater than John the Baptist;
yet the least
in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he."

Dear God, my Abba Father, Lord Jesus my Savior, Holy Spirit within me.
Dear Lord, I know You call me to embrace the newness of life and the changes that I must endure so as to follow You more faithfully. Help me to be open to all that You call me to so that I will continually become a new creation in Your grace.

Lord help me to react to those overwhelmed by the moment from my source of joy, You. As You would react, with patience, understanding and love. Letting every thought, word and act point me and those I’m reacting to, to You.
Lord hear my prayers as I try to slow it down and embrace Your presence and the joy of the season. Prayers for peace, understanding and compassion for others, always. In all circumstances. Prayers for blessings and protect. For wisdom and understanding. For courage and strength.

Reading I Sirach 48:1-4, 9-11
(https://bible.usccb.org/bible/sirach/48?1)

In those days,  like a fire there appeared the prophet Elijah  whose words were as a flaming furnace.  Their staff of bread he shattered,  in his zeal he reduced them to straits;  By the Lord’s word he shut up the heavens  and three times brought down fire.  How awesome are you, Elijah, in your wondrous deeds!  Whose glory is equal to yours?  You were taken aloft in a whirlwind of fire,  in a chariot with fiery horses.  You were destined, it is written, in time to come  to put an end to wrath before the day of the LORD,  To turn back the hearts of fathers toward their sons,  and to re-establish the tribes of Jacob.  Blessed is he who shall have seen you   and who falls asleep in your friendship.

Gospel Matthew 17:9a, 10-13
(https://bible.usccb.org/bible/matthew/17?9)

As they were coming down from the mountain, the disciples asked Jesus, “Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?” He said in reply, “Elijah will indeed come and restore all things; but I tell you that Elijah has already come, and they did not recognize him but did to him whatever they pleased.  So also will the Son of Man suffer at their hands.” Then the disciples understood that he was speaking to them of John the Baptist.

Today, the Church reminds us of John the Baptist’s important role during Advent. Like the prophet Elijah, John the Baptist prepared the people for the coming Messiah by turning them away from sin and toward God. As we prepare for the Messiah this Advent, take some time to ready your own heart through repentance and reconciliation.

My prayer…

Dear God, my Abba Father, Lord Jesus my Savior, Holy Spirit within me.
My mysterious and beautiful Lord, You have revealed to us the deepest and most profound mysteries of life through Your written Word. May I always approach Your Word with humility and openness so that I will come to know You more fully.

Growing in You, as You grow within me. A light in darkness, reflecting Your presence, and spreading Your Word, and truths.
Many are the excuses, great are the busyness and temptations of the world. So we must be diligent studying Your Word. Gaining confidence and knowledge to defend our faith. Willing to share our testimony with all.
Praying without ceasing for me and mine, and those You place in my path. For forgiveness, healing, wisdom, strength and a heart likened to Yours.
Remembering all of mine that have passed on to You. Mom, Dub, Dad, Abuelita and Abuelito, Titi Evelyn and Fernando, Nana and Coco, Titi Lisa and Manuel, Louie, David and David, Peggy, Terry and all those not listed but I remembered.
