CHRIST
THE
KING
FINDING GOD
The splendid magi, all sparkle and dash and solemnity, march right up off the pages of Matthews Gospel and into our churches today. Matthew alone tells us this grand and seductive story so that we might see the light and know that the child these magi visited is the fulfillment of prophecy, the king of the world that stretches to the magis home country and beyond, right down the ages to us. We too see and understand anew. Like the magi, our patron saints for this day, we see in the newborn child the king of the universe and light of the world. Like the magi, we find in ourselves a new faith and a new life. Like them, we return to our home by a new route. We are asked to come away from this festive season ourselves renewed and awake to the presence of God among us. We are asked to find God where God is to be found, to be attentive and surprised and ready to bow down in adoration and to offer our gifts. Copyright J. S. Paluch Co.

The Council of Catholic Women Christ the King Parish Lombard, Illinois Whats happening... January 2013
Happy New Year! Another year has been gifted to us to do with it what we will. What kind of a year will it be? Many people start off the New Year by making a long list of Resolutions on the 1st day of the new year. Statistics tell us that 45% of Americans make Resolutions. Yet, sadly, 24% of them give up within two weeks. Making meaningful and achievable resolutions need not be a difficult task. The best advice we found is to think in terms of the days resolutions not the years. Following are a few suggestions that are sure make the New Year happier. > Learn more about your faith. When the Year of Faith began, we were asked to memorize the (newly re-worded) Nicene Creed. The Creed is a list of all that our Faith contains. Saying it slowly every day, focusing on each line is a good practice. > Get involved. Being connected brings along many benefits - such as developing new skills and making friends. An easy way to do that is to come to a CCW meeting, and help with one of our projects. We would be very happy to have the help! > Practice Gratitude. Keep a Gratitude Journal, writing down three things for which you are most grateful each day. Write thank you notes to people who have been helpful to you. January 19 and 20 are the days scheduled for the Baby Bottles for Life collection to help continue the work of Womans Choice Services. Take a minute and pick up a baby bottle after Mass, fill it with loose change or a check - and bring it back to church by February 2nd or 3rd. Look for boxes labeled Baby Bottles for Life in the Narthex and drop it in. It is an easy way to be Pro-Life. Thank you for your help! January 21 Join us for the monthly CCW Community Mass at 8:30 A.M. Our prayer this month is for an end to the culture of violence in our country as we are called to work for peace in our homes, our streets and in our world. Prayer request: Please pray for families and friends of those who died in the tragedy in Newtown, Connecticut on December 14th. Pray also for all of those who continue to suffer from natural disasters here in this country and around the world. January 21 Come for Chili! Start off the New Year by joining us for supper. On the menu: Chili with all the fixings and a selection of yummy sweets. After supper there will be a showing of the movie: October Baby. The film is about a teenaged girl who finds that she lived through a lateterm abortion. Come and bring a friend. The Monday meeting will be held in the Parish Life Center and begin at 6:30 p.m. It is a good way to celebrate the Right to Life Month.

The Beacon Hill family wishes to express its gratitude for the ministry of Elmer Mears to our community. For 15 years Elmer and his wife, Eileen, anchored our Sunday morning Communion Service, which is so appreciated by the residents who are unable to attend church. A few weeks ago Elmer died. We will especially miss joining him in singing God Bless America, which was always his closing prayer.

A Stewardship Moment
Today we hear Saint Paul proclaim that he exercises stewardship of Gods grace for the benefit of the Christian community. Earlier in this letter to the Ephesians, he prayed they would come to realize the actual value of these riches of Gods grace they inherited. This letter was written to remind, encourage, and spiritually motivate this Eucharistic community to appreciate just how immeasurably wealthy they had become to inherit a life in Christ. What value do we place on our life in Christ? If someone asked us to put a price on this life in todays currency, how would we respond? $100 million? $100 billion? Priceless? Do we live as though our life in Christ is priceless?
