CHAPLAINS CORNER
O Come, O Come, Emanuel. Advent, already! Where has the year gone? Our secular society celebrates New Years Day on January First with parties and oftentimes pagan revelry. But for Catholics, New Years Day occurred on November 27 which was the First Sunday of Advent. And we ushered in the New Year, not with wild parties but with Mass, Holy Communion and prayers. No one except God knows what the New Year will bring, whether it be happiness or tragedy, health or sickness, good fortune or destitution. And so we enter into the 365 days of the year 2012 with hope and optimism and enthusiasm and especially with trust in the goodness the love, the providence of Almighty God. He has been so good to us in the past and we have no reason to think He wont continue His love and care for us in the New Year. As a sign of His love and care for us, two thousand years ago God the Father gave to us the greatest Christmas gift He could think of. i.e. His only Son. His coming is the basis for all the excitement, the Christmas cards and happy greetings, the glittering Christmas trees and the joyful Christmas carols as, first of all, we celebrate the arrival of that little Baby in Bethlehem. Whose arrival changed the subsequent history of the entire human race. But we only have to watch the television or read the newspapers to see how badly we need the Prince of Peace in this coming year of 2012. And the
Son of God wants to bring love, respect, honesty, into our world of 2012. This is why God inspired Fr. McGivney to found the Knights of Columbus. Through you, as through Our Lady two thousand years ago, Christ wants to be born into the world of 2012 to show His love for us today, to bring peace, love, harmony, respect into our world which looks for Him with His much needed gifts. You, in virtue of your Baptism and also because Jesus is born in your heart each Sunday in Holy Communion, have been chosen by God, as Mary was two thousand years ago, to bring Jesus into your families, your homes, your parishes, our Council, our world. And so our world decorates its homes and trees with lights to celebrate the coming of the Light of the World in Bethlehem two thousand years ago and also to testify to its desire and hope that the Light of the World will come into our homes, our country, our world and our hearts in the year 2012 with His gifts as the Prince of Peace. May each of you experience the presence of the Prince of Peace in your hearts and homes this Christmas and throughout the year 2012. And may Mary, the Mother of God help you to bring her Divine Son into this world this Christmas and throughout 2012. Rev. L.D. Burns. C.S.B. Chaplain
