“For when people work, they not only alter things and
society, they develop themselves as well. They learn
much, they cultivate their resources, they go outside of
themselves and beyond themselves. Rightly understood,
this kind of growth is of greater value than any external
riches which can be garnered. People are more precious
for what they are than for what they have.”
Gaudium et Spes, #35, Vatican Council II
Suggested Activity:
Reflect on the nature of the work that you do and the
gifts and talents it requires. Are there gifts and talents
that remain untapped?

Let us pray.
God of love and compassion, before this season of
unrest, we had grown comfortable with thinking of them
only as they relate to us - as our parents and spouses, sons
and daughters, brothers and sisters, neighbors and friends.
Today, history and circumstance, force us to release
them into your care and into our country’s service. We
pray for them and bless them in your name. Grant them
your protection and a safe return home. Amen.

As members of the parish faith
community, it is our responsibility to
remember both in concrete and spiritual
ways those who cannot celebrate with
us each week because they are ill.
Those who are sick in turn, remember
all of us daily in their prayers and in their sufferings. We
experience many blessings because of their remembering
us. And so ... please remember in your prayers:

The Three Trees
Once there were three trees on a hill in the woods. They
were discussing their hopes and dreams when the first
tree said, "Someday I hope to be a treasure chest. I could
be filled with gold, silver and precious gems. I could be
decorated with intricate carving, and everyone would see
the beauty."
Then the second tree said, "Someday I will be a
mighty ship. I will take kings and queens across the waters
and sail to the corners of the world. Everyone will feel safe
in me because of the strength of my hull."
Finally the third tree said, "I want to grow to be the
tallest and straightest tree in the forest. People will see me
on top of the hill, and look up to my branches, and think of
the heavens and God and how close to them I am reaching. I will be the greatest tree of all time and people will
always remember me.
After a few years of praying that their dreams would
come true, a group of woodsmen came upon the trees.
When one came to the first tree he said, "This looks like a
strong tree, I think should be able to sell the wood to a
carpenter," and he began cutting it down. The tree was
happy, because he knew that the carpenter would make
him into a treasure chest.
At the second tree the woodsman said, "This looks like
a strong tree, I should be able to sell it to the shipyard."
The second tree was happy because he knew he was on
his way to becoming a mighty ship.
When the woodsmen came upon the third tree, the
tree was frightened because he knew that if they cut him
down his dreams would not come true. One of the woodsmen said, "I don't need anything special from my tree, I'll
take this one," and he cut it down.
When the first tree arrived at the carpenters, he was
made into a feed box for animals. He was then placed in a
barn and filled with hay. This was not at all what he had
prayed for.
The second tree was cut and made into a small fishing
boat. His dreams of being a mighty ship and carrying kings
had come to an end.
The third tree was cut into large pieces and left alone
in the dark. The years went by, and the trees forgot about
their dreams.
Then one day, a man and woman came to the barn.
She gave birth and they placed the baby in the hay in the
feed box that was made from the first tree. The man
wished that he could have made a crib for the baby, but
this manger would have to do. The tree could feel the
importance of this event and knew that it had held the
greatest treasure of all time.
Years later, a group of men got in the fishing boat
made from the second tree. One of them was tired and
went to sleep. While they were out on the water, a great
storm arose, and the tree didn't think it was strong enough
to keep the men safe. The men woke the sleeping man,
and He stood and said "Peace" and the storm stopped. At
this time, the tree knew that it had carried the King of
Kings in its boat.
Finally, someone came and got the third tree. It was
carried through the streets as the people mocked the man
who was carrying it. When they came to a stop, the man
was nailed to the tree and raised in the air to die at the top
of a hill. When Sunday came, the tree came to realize that
it was strong enough to stand at the top of the hill and be
as close to God as was possible, because Jesus had been
crucified on it.
The moral of this story is that when things don't seem
to be going your way, always know that God has a plan for
you. If you place your trust in Him, He will give you great
gifts. Each of the trees got what they wanted, just not in
the way they had imagined. We don't always know what
God's plans are for us. We just know that His ways are not
our ways, but His ways are always best.

Pielgrzymka do Guadalupe

Serdecznie zapraszamy na pielgrzymkê do Guadalupe w Meksyku
do najs³ynniejszego sanktuarium Ameryki £aciñskiej. Co roku pielgrzymuje tu ponad 10 milionów ludzi, by oddaæ czeœæ Matce Bo¿ej, która
objawi³a siê ubogiemu Indianinowi Juan Diego w 1531 roku. W sierpniu
zesz³ego roku zosta³ on og³oszony b³ogos³awionym przez Jana Paw³a II.
Ka¿dego roku 12 grudnia w œwiêto Matki Bo¿ej z Guadalupe przybywaj¹
tu t³umy wiernych Indian w ludowych strojach oraz pielgrzymi z ca³ego
œwiata. W zesz³ym roku odpust ten zgromadzi³ niemal trzy miliony ludzi;
obecny by³ równie¿ prezydent Meksyku Wincenty Fox.
W programie pielgrzymki trwaj¹cej od 10 -17 grudnia 2003 roku jest
równie¿ zwiedzanie zabytków Meksyku, staro¿ytnych pyramid, s³ynnego
miasta srebra - Taxco, a na koniec dwudniowy wypoczynek nad
Pacyfikiem w Acapulco.
