A Christmas Bouquet For Your Loved Ones!
We wish to give you the greatest gift possible during this Advent and
Christmas Season to help in a special way to prepare your hearts and souls for
the momentous event which we anticipate: God with us!
In reality, the first coming of Our Lord in the stable at Bethlehem occurs again
and again. It is a merciful reality not only at the feast of Christmas, but in
the hearts of each one of us at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass - the Church
being the stable of Bethlehem, and the altar and our hearts the crib. The Church
celebrates not only the first coming of Christ upon earth as Our Redeemer, but
also the merciful reality of His second coming on earth as our Judge! By His
first coming, Our Lord redeemed us from sin and obtained the resurrection of our
souls to the life of Grace. With His second coming, Christ will heal us of all
our frailties and will bring resurrection to our bodies. We shall reap the
harvest of complete happiness with God even as we have served Him in this world
with our whole being, body and soul. Christ desires to be born in us that we may
live new, purer and more perfect lives.
Thirty days of Sacred Liturgies will be offered for all those who enroll in the
Christmas Bouquet of Masses offered by Fr. Ivan Kolodij and the good priests in
Ukraine. Your spiritual and temporal needs and your family, living and dead,
will be remembered at the Holy Altar every day during December. The Christmas
Mass Bouquet will be crowned with a solemn High Mass on the Feast of the
Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ and during the Christmas Octave. There could
be no more precious gift you can give at Christmas time. Each person arranging
these Masses for their loved ones will be sent a beautiful Mass card which may
be mailed to the person enrolled. We will mail the Mass cards directly to you.
These may be sent in your Christmas greeting cards or placed inside your gift
packages. This is a wonderful way to keep Christ in Christmas!!!
