The Season of Advent invites us to keep in our hearts that time before the Coming of the Lord in His profound love in the Incarnation. We are called in today's liturgy to feel deeply the desire for Jesus to come to us. In the traditional epistle for today, St. Paul urges us to cast off the deeds of darkness and to put on the armor of light. He is teaching us that, up until now, we have very much been living as if Jesus had not yet come to our souls. In our sins, we have lived in the darkness that is separate from the Light of Christ. When Jesus comes to our souls by grace - and it is this coming of the Lord for which we long daily - He shines His saving Light into every part of our soul and He fills us with the joy of possessing Him in divine love. In the traditional gospel for today , we are invited to desire and to look for the Lord's Second Coming at the end of time. Thus, we see already on the First Sunday of Advent that this holy season celebrates and deepens our desire for what our Catholic tradition calls the three "advents" ("coming towards") of Christ: His advent in the humble manger of Bethlehem, His advent into our souls by grace, and His advent in Kingly glory at the end of the world. We pray during this season for an increase in the theological virtue of hope, whereby we desire from the depths of our soul all three advents of Christ. This holy desire will be fulfilled finally when we enter into His Glory and Joy in the Beatific Vision of Heaven. Today we arise from the drowsiness of chasing after joys apart from Him and awaken to the dazzling Light of the pure Joy of pleasing our Beloved, Who is coming to us, His Bride. Advent is the springtime of the Church. Today the Church is young. May she rejoice in Christ in each one of our hearts this Advent!

PARISH ADVENT RETREAT “Turning Towards the Lord” On Thursday, December 15, from 6:30pm-9:00pm At Our Lady of the Pillar Church we will have our Advent Parish Retreat. We will begin together in the church at 6:30 with our welcome and opening prayer. Then, Fr.

Following the talks, we will gather again in the church for adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. There will be five priests available for confession and we will conclude with Benediction. All are welcome! RETIRO DE ADVIENTO PARROQUIAL "Volviéndose hacia el Señor" El jueves 15 de diciembre, de 6:30 pm a 9:00 pm, en la Iglesia de Nuestra Señora del Pilar, tendremos nuestro Retiro Parroquial de Adviento. No reuniremos en la Iglesia a las 6:30pm con nuestra oración de bienvenida y apertura. Después el Padre James Moore, de St. Dominic's en San Francisco, estará dando la plática en Inglés y Monseñor James Kelly, del Menlo Center en Menlo Park, estará dando la plática en Español. Después de las pláticas, nos reuniremos de nuevo en la iglesia para la adoración del Santísimo Sacramento. Habrá cinco sacerdotes disponibles para la confesión y concluiremos con la Bendición. ¡Todos son bienvenidos! As we prepare for the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe on December 12, I would like to draw your attention to our recently re-finished shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe on the southeast end of the parish property. I want to thank our many generous donors for their love for Our Lady and I especially want to thank Alfonso Sención for his generous leadership and hard work in the work of beautification. I hope that you find our shrine a peaceful place to encounter the motherly love of the Blessed Virgin Mary. -Father Previtali Mientras nos preparamos para la fiesta de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe el 12 de diciembre, me gustaría llamar su atención a nuestro recién terminado Santuario de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe en el extremo sureste de la Iglesia. Quiero agradecer a todos nuestros generosos donadores por su amor a Nuestra Señora y quiero agradecer especialmente a el Sr. Alfonso Sención por su generoso liderazgo y arduo trabajo para el embellecimiento de nuestra fuente. Espero que encuentren nuestro santuario un lugar tranquilo para encontrar el amor maternal de la Santísima Virgen María. -Padre Previtali Queridos hermanos y hermanas en Cristo, ¿Cómo sería nuestra vida sin Jesús? La Temporada de Adviento nos invita a guardar en nuestros corazones ese tiempo antes de la Venida del Señor en Su profundo amor en la Encarnación. Estamos llamados en la liturgia de hoy a sentir profundamente el deseo de que Jesús venga a nosotros. En la epístola tradicional de hoy, San Pablo nos insta a abandonar las obras de las tinieblas ya ponernos la armadura de la luz. Él nos está enseñando que, hasta ahora, hemos vivido mucho como si Jesús aún no hubiera llegado a nuestras almas. En nuestros pecados, hemos vivido en la oscuridad que está separada de la Luz de Cristo. Cuando Jesús viene a nuestras almas por gracia - y es esta venida del Señor por la cual diariamente diariamente - Él brilla Su Luz salvadora en cada parte de nuestra alma y nos llena de la alegría de poseerlo en el amor divino. En el evangelio tradicional de hoy, estamos invitados a desear y buscar la Segunda Venida del Señor al final de los tiempos. Así, vemos ya en el Primer Domingo de Adviento que esta santa temporada celebra y profundiza nuestro deseo por lo que nuestra tradición católica llama los tres "advenimientos" de Cristo: Su advenimiento en el humilde pesebre de Belén, Su Advenimiento en nuestras almas por gracia, y su advenimiento en la gloria del Rey en el fin del mundo. Oramos durante esta temporada por un aumento en la virtud teológica de la esperanza, por la cual deseamos desde las profundidades de nuestra alma los tres advents de Cristo. Este deseo santo se cumplirá finalmente cuando entramos en Su Gloria y Alegría en la Visión Beatífica del Cielo. Hoy nos levantamos de la somnolencia de perseguir alegrías aparte de Él y despertar a la deslumbrante Luz de la alegría pura de agradar a nuestro Amado, que viene a nosotros, Su Novia. El Adviento es la primavera de la Iglesia. Hoy la Iglesia es joven. ¡Que se regocije en Cristo en cada uno de nuestros corazones este Adviento! Oren por mi, Padre José Previtali
