REJOICE Isaiah proclaims truly good news to us! God’s coming brings not sadness, guilt, fear, wrath, or condemnation. No, God’s coming is a source of comfort and joy. Saying it once is not enough, for today’s readings are full of joy. Mary’s Magnificat substitutes for our psalm today, and our second reading encourages us to rejoice, to give thanks and praise. This is the root meaning of the Greek word for Eucharist. We are urged to rejoice and give thanks, because the coming of the Lord brings joy, healing, liberty, release, vindication. It makes the very earth spring up with new life! Good tidings!
¡ALÉGRATE! ¡Isaías realmente nos proclama una buena nueva! La venida del Señor no trae tristeza, culpa, miedo, ira ni condena. No, la venida del Señor es fuente de júbilo y consuelo. No basta con decirlo una vez, las lecturas de hoy están llenas de júbilo. El Magníficat de María reemplaza a nuestro salmo hoy y nuestra segunda lectura nos anima a alegrarnos, dar
gracia y rendir alabanza. Éste es el significado principal de la palabra griega para eucaristía. Se nos insta a alegrarnos y dar gracias, porque la venida del Señor trae júbilo, curación, libertad, perdón y vindicación. ¡Hace que la tierra eche brotes de vida nueva! ¡Buenas noticias!
“A man named John was sent from God. He came for testimony, to testify to the light, so that all might believe through him. He was not the light, but came to testify to the light.”
-John 1:6-8, 19-28
PRAY: God, fill us with the joy of Christ as we eagerly await his coming at Christmas. May the joy you bring inspire us to care for each other as we journey together as one human family. Amen REFLECT: What brings you joy? How can you bring the joy of Christ to a world in need? “Vino un hombre, enviado por Dios, que se llamaba Juan. Vino para dar testimonio, como
testigo de la luz, para que todos creyeran en él. Aunque no fuera él la luz, le tocaba dar testimonio de la luz”. –Juan 1:6-8, 19-28
ORAR: Dios, llénanos de la alegría de Cristo mientras esperamos con ansiedad su llegada en la Navidad. Amén REFLEXIONA: ¿Qué te trae alegría? ¿Cómo puedes llevar la alegría de Cristo a un mundo necesitado?

SIMBANG GABI – A Filipino Christmas Tradition Simbang Gabi ( “Simba” means Mass, “Gabi” means night or evening) is a long treasured Philippine tradition which originally is a series of “dawn masses” for 9 consecutive days, in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary in anticipation of Christmas. Its liturgical significance comes from the Season of Advent, being the time of spiritual preparation to worthily welcome and receive the Child Jesus in our midst. It starts December 16th through December 24th and is usually done as early as 3 to 5 o’clock in the morning. At St. Anthony Claret Church, novena masses are celebrated in the evenings as anticipated masses in lieu of dawn masses, for practical purposes. Thus, we usually start the novena on the evening of December 15th . The Simbang Gabi originated in the early days of Christianity in the Philippines, in and about 1660. The Philippines is an agricultural country where farmers, during the Spanish rule, toiled all day with one break during noon when the heat would be at its peak. When the Christmas season would begin, it was customary to hold novenas in the evenings. The Missionary Friars saw that the people despite fatigue wanted to attend the services. As a compromise, the clergy began to hold Mass in the early dawn when the land would still be dark before the natives went out to toil in the fields again. It was then a practical compromise for farmers who started their day before sunrise, at the crack of dawn, to avoid the heat in the fields. Simbang Gabi Mass is also known as Misa de Gallo. The word “gallo” means “rooster” in Spanish. At the first sound of dawn, at the crowing of the rooster, the entire family would get up and walk to the nearest parish church. This religious practice has been handed from one generation to the next and it evolved into a distinctly Philippine tradition. Simbang Gabi expresses the faith of Filipinos in God who is present in human history, even in the simple joys and anxieties of life’s humblest activities.
