From the Pastor’s Desk Del Escritorio del Pastor
Dear parishioners and friends:
THE GIFTS OF THE MAGI…
We continue the celebration of the Christmas
Season this week with the great Feast of the
Epiphany of the Lord. Today we proclaim once
again from the Gospel of Matthew and hear how
magi from the east followed the star seeking the
“newborn king of the Jews.” (Matt 2:1). The
magi carried gifts of gold, frankincense, and
myrrh. Allow me to thank you for the gifts you
offered our new born Savior this year. You may
think: “Wait a second Father, you must be
mistaken.” I’m not a ‘king’ or a ‘magi,’ and I
certainly didn’t bring gold, frankincense or myrrh
to the manger.” But you did. Really, you
did! You brought gifts to the Christ child,
disguised in the faces of the poor and needy
children in our community. I saw the many gifts
for children from our “Giving Trees” that were
collected and given to needy children at
Christmas. Every week food is dropped off to
help support the good work of our St. Vincent de
Paul Society as they feed the hungry. Diapers and
other baby items were donated for parents who
said “yes to life” and are raising families. Last
year, donations were made to support the
Orphanage in Mexico I visit every year. I see the
gifts of mercy and compassion you offer when our
ministers visit the sick and comfort those who
mourn the loss of a loved one. You see, Our Lord
is not seeking gold, frankincense or myrrh from
you. He wants your heart. Jesus wants you to
know how much the Father loves you and extends
to you His mercy and compassion. This year, I
pray we all continue to follow the star. Give to
the Christ Child the greatest gift of all, your love.
God Bless you and your Families,
Fr. Vincent
Queridos feligreses y amigos:
LOS REGALOS DE LOS REYES MAGOS...
Nosotros continuamos con la celebración de esta
época de Navidad esta semana con la gran fiesta de la
Epifanía de Nuestro Señor. Hoy proclamamos una
vez más el Evangelio de San Mateo y escuchamos
cómo los Magos del Oriente siguieron la estrella,
buscando al " recién nacido, rey de los
judíos" (Mateo 2:1). Los magos llevaban regalos de
oro, incienso y mirra. Permítame darles las gracias
por los regalos que ofrecieron a nuestro recién nacido
y Salvador este año. Quizás usted puede pensar: "
Espere un segundo Padre, pero usted está
equivocado." Yo no soy un " rey" o un " mago", y
ciertamente no traje oro, incienso o mirra al pesebre.
¡Pero realmente, lo hiciste! Tu trajiste regalos al niño
Jesús, quien está disfrazado en los rostros de los niños
pobres y necesitados de nuestra comunidad. Vi los
muchos regalos que trajeron para los niños que
estaban en los Árboles de Navidad de nuestra
parroquia y que fueron recogidos y dados a los niños
necesitados el día de Navidad. Cada semana ustedes
traen comida a nuestra parroquia para apoyar el
buen trabajo de nuestra Sociedad de San Vicente de
Paúl, ya que ellos proveen alimentos a los
necesitados. Los pañales y otros artículos para bebés
fueron donados para los padres que dijeron " sí a la
vida" y están criando familias. El año pasado, se
hicieron donaciones para apoyar al Orfanato de
México, que yo visito cada año. Veo los dones de
misericordia y compasión que ofrecen nuestros
ministros cuando visitan a los enfermos y consuelan a
los que lloran por la pérdida de un ser querido. Usted
ve, Nuestro Señor no está buscando oro, incienso o
mirra de usted. Él quiere tu corazón. Jesús quiere que
ustedes sepan cuánto el Padre los ama y les extiende
su misericordia y compasión. Este año, rezo para que
todos sigamos siguiendo la estrella. Dale al Niño
Jesús el mayor regalo de todos, tu amor.
Que Dios te bendiga a ti y a tu familia,
Padre Vicente

Grateful Stewards
“Then they opened their treasures and offered him gifts of gold,
frankincense, and myrrh.” Matthew 2:11B
The image of the Magi kneeling before the infant Jesus and
opening their treasure chests for Him is an image that we should
all try to follow all year long. In gratitude for all that we have
been given, Christian Stewards are called to generously share all
of our gifts, not just the ones we pick and choose. God wants us
to be the most generous with that one thing that means the
most to us.

The Knights of Columbus Nativity Council 2976 recently held an eye glass collection for the needy. This
month, the council was able to provide the Lions Club with 200 pair of eye glasses, which will be distributed
to those in need, both in our country and around the world. Once again, the council would like to thank the
Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish, for participating in our collection. Without your thoughtful help, we would
never be successful in any of our efforts.
Happy New Year!

National Migration Week January 8-14 This week Catholic Church in the United States celebrates National Migration Week. Please pray for
immigrants and refugees here in our country and throughout the world. They are our brothers and sisters in
Christ. At our Parish of Our Lady of Guadalupe, we will offer a special program on Sunday, January 15,
beginning at 12:30 p.m. in St. Lawrence Church. Parishioners from our community suffer the effects of
separation from their families because of our nation’s immigration policies will offer testimony of their
hardship. Refugees who fled their native lands due to persecution and suffering will also speak. Finally,
attorneys from the Camden Center for Law and Social Justice will make a presentation on immigration law
and be available for questions.
All of our parishioners, English speaking and Spanish speaking alike, are encouraged to attend to learn from
each other as we grow together as a parish family.
Prayer
MERCIFUL AND LOVING FATHER, We beseech you, open our hearts so that we may provide
hospitality and refuge to migrants who are lonely, afraid, and far from their homes. Give us the courage to
welcome every stranger as Christ in our midst, to invite them into our communities as a demonstration of
Christ’s love for us. We pray that when we encounter the other, we see in them the face of your Son, when we
meet a stranger, that we take his hand in welcome. Help us to live in solidarity with one another, to seek
justice for those who are persecuted and comfort for those who are suffering. We ask this through our Lord
Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God,
for ever and ever. Amen
Semana Nacional de Migración 8-14 de Enero
Esta semana la Iglesia Católica en los Estados Unidos celebra la Semana Nacional de la Migración. Por
favor oren por inmigrantes y refugiados aquí en nuestro país y en todo el mundo. Son nuestros hermanos y
hermanas en Cristo. En nuestra Parroquia de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, ofreceremos un programa
especial el domingo 15 de enero, a partir de las 12:30 p.m. en la Iglesia de San Lorenzo. Los feligreses de la
comunidad sufren los efectos de la separación de sus familias debido a las políticas de inmigración de nuestra
nación que ofresce el testimonio de sus dificultades. También hablan los refugiados que huyeron de sus tierras
nativas debido a persecución y sufrimiento. Por último, los abogados del Centro Camden de Derecho y
Justicia Social harán una presentación sobre la ley de inmigración y estarán disponibles para preguntas.
Todos nuestros feligreses, tanto de habla inglesa como de habla española, son animados a asistir para
aprender unos de otros mientras crecemos juntos como una familia parroquial.
Oración
PADRE MISERICORDIOSO Y AMOR, le rogamos abra nuestros corazones para que ofrezcamos hospitalidad
y refugio a los emigrantes que están solos, asustados y lejos de sus hogares. Danos el valor de acoger a cada
extraño como Cristo en medio de nosotros, para invitarlos a nuestras comunidades como una demostración
del amor de Cristo por nosotros. Oramos para que cuando encontremos al otro, veamos en ellos el rostro de
tu Hijo, cuando nos encontramos con un extraño, que tomemos su mano en bienvenida. Ayúdanos a vivir en
solidaridad unos con otros, a buscar justicia para los que son perseguidos ya consolar a los que sufren.
Pedimos esto a través de nuestro Señor Jesucristo, tu Hijo, que vive y reina contigo en la unidad del Espíritu
Santo, un solo Dios, por los siglos de los siglos. Amén
