 * LETTER FROM THE PASTOR
   
   Dear Parishioners and Friends of Ascension,
   
   At the beginning of this new liturgical year, the Season of Advent is marked
   with two special feast days in honor of Mary, one of which is celebrated this
   week. This Thursday, December 8th, we celebrate the Solemnity of the
   Immaculate Conception. Since under this title, Mary is the patroness of the
   United States, this feast is always celebrated as a holy day. On Thursday,
   December 8th, Masses will be celebrated at 8:30 AM (with the children from
   the school), and 12 Noon in English, and 7:00 PM in Spanish.
   
   The Gun Violence Archive defines a mass shooting as one in which at least
   four people are shot, excluding the shooter. As of today, there have been at
   least 607 mass shootings through November 22 of this year. That’s just short
   of the 638 mass shootings in the country at this point last year – the worst
   year on record since the group began tracking them in 2014
   
   On the days leading up to Thanksgiving, there was a mass shooting at a
   Walmart in Chesapeake, Virginia, 6 were killed and 4 were injured. That was
   just three days after five people died in a shooting rampage at the Q
   Nightclub, an LGBTQ nightclub in Colorado Springs
   
   In the past week alone, mass shootings have claimed at least 24 lives and
   injured 37 others in gun rampages across seven states, according to the Gun
   Violence Archive. There have been more mass shootings than days so far in
   2022 – a trend that’s continued each year since 2019 – underscoring the
   growing prevalence of gun violence in American life.
   
   So far in November, there have been at least 32 mass shootings across the
   nation resulting in more than 177 people shot and 43 dead.
   
   This is a life issue! As Catholics we are called to cherish, defend and
   protect those who are most vulnerable, from the beginning of life to its
   natural end, and at every point in between.
   
   When a person of faith identifies themself as being “pro life” it means that
   they are concerned with every dimension of life, from womb to tomb. Still to
   this day, the word or the term “pro life” is used interchangeably with the
   term “anti-abortion.” If other issues of life are brushed to the side - like
   the whole issue of guns, then that in fact is not being pro-life.
   
   Cardinal Joseph Bernadine, a former Archbishop of Chicago, often spoke about
   a consistent ethic of life as being a “Seamless Garment.” The consistent
   ethic of life is an ideology that opposes abortion of course, but it also
   opposes gun violence, capital punishment, assisted suicide, and euthanasia.
   Cardinal Bernadine had spoken out against nuclear war as well. He expanded
   the scope of his view to include all aspects of human life.
   
   In the world of today, when we speak about a consistent ethic of life, when
   we speak about the seamless garment, that too has to include our care towards
   the most vulnerable of our society, be they victims of war or gun violence,
   the immigrant, the migrant, the refugee, abused children, the poor, the
   marginalized, the mentally challenged, members of the LGBTQ community, those
   without healthcare, and that list goes on. On the website for the USCCB,
   there is almost nothing on gun violence. As a church, we need to become much
   more prophetic than we are now. We need to use our prophetic voices
   collectively and wisely and end the daily violence that is being done to the
   most vulnerable – yes to the unborn, but to the marginalized, whose
   communities are being torn apart each day because violence caused by guns.
   This must stop.
   
   As we journey through these days of Advent, a season of hope, we pray that
   God’s Spirit will inspire us to use our prophetic voices wisely on behalf of
   all the vulnerable and marginalized communities of the world.
   
   
   
   Peace, Fr. Kearney
   
   Estimados Feligreses y Amigos de Ascencion,
   
   Al comienzo de este nuevo año litúrgico, el Tiempo de Adviento está marcado
   con dos fiestas especiales en honor a María, una de las cuales se celebra
   esta semana. Este jueves 8 de diciembre celebramos la Solemnidad de la
   Inmaculada Concepción. Dado que bajo este título, María es la patrona de los
   Estados Unidos, esta fiesta siempre se celebra como un día sagrado. El jueves
   8 de diciembre se celebrarán misas a las 8:30 AM (con los niños de la
   escuela), ya las 12:00 PM en inglés y a las 7:00 PM en español.
   
   El Archivo de Violencia con Armas define un tiroteo masivo como uno en el que
   al menos cuatro personas reciben disparos, excluyendo al tirador. A la fecha,
   ha habido al menos 607 tiroteos masivos hasta el 22 de noviembre de este año.
   Eso es poco menos que los 638 tiroteos masivos en el país en este momento el
   año pasado, el peor año registrado desde que el grupo comenzó a rastrearlos
   en 2014.
   
   En los días previos al Día de Acción de Gracias, hubo un tiroteo masivo en un
   Walmart en Chesapeake, Virigina, 6 personas murieron y 4 resultaron heridas.
   Eso fue solo tres días después de que cinco personas murieran en un tiroteo
   en Q Nightclub, un club nocturno LGBTQ en Colorado Springs.
   
   Solo en la última semana, los tiroteos masivos se cobraron al menos 24 vidas
   y lesionaron a otras 37 en ataques con armas en siete estados, según el
   Archivo de Violencia con Armas. Ha habido más tiroteos masivos que días en lo
   que va de 2022, una tendencia que continúa cada año desde 2019, lo que
   subraya la creciente prevalencia de la violencia armada en la vida
   estadounidense
   
   En lo que va de noviembre, ha habido al menos 32 tiroteos masivos en todo el
   país que han resultado en más de 177 personas baleadas y 43 muertas.
   
   ¡Este es un problema de vida! Como católicos, estamos llamados a apreciar,
   defender y proteger a los más vulnerables, desde el comienzo de la vida hasta
   su final natural, y en todos los puntos intermedios. Cuando una persona de fe
   se identifica a sí misma como “pro vida”, significa que se preocupa por todas
   las dimensiones de la vida, desde el vientre hasta la tumba. Todavía hasta el
   día de hoy, la palabra o el término “pro vida” se usa indistintamente con el
   término “antiaborto”. Si se dejan de lado otros temas de la vida, como todo
   el tema de las armas, entonces, de hecho, eso no es ser pro-vida.
   
   El cardenal Joseph Bernadine, ex arzobispo de Chicago, a menudo hablaba de
   una ética constante de la vida como una "prenda sin costuras". La ética
   consistente de la vida es una ideología que se opone al aborto, por supuesto,
   pero también se opone a la violencia armada, la pena capital, el suicidio
   asistido y la eutanasia. El cardenal Bernadine también se había pronunciado
   en contra de la guerra nuclear. Amplió el alcance de su punto de vista para
   incluir todos los aspectos de la vida humana.
   
   En el mundo de hoy, cuando hablamos de una ética de vida coherente, cuando
   hablamos de la prenda sin costuras, eso también tiene que incluir nuestro
   cuidado hacia los más vulnerables de nuestra sociedad, ya sean víctimas de la
   guerra o de la violencia armada, los inmigrantes. , el migrante, el
   refugiado, los niños abusados, los pobres, los marginados, los discapacitados
   mentales, los miembros de la comunidad LGBTQ, los que no tienen atención
   médica, y esa lista continúa. En el sitio web de la USCCB, no hay casi nada
   sobre la violencia armada. Como iglesia, necesitamos volvernos mucho más
   proféticos de lo que somos ahora. Necesitamos usar nuestras voces proféticas
   de manera colectiva y sabia y poner fin a la violencia diaria que se ejerce
   contra los más vulnerables, sí, contra los no nacidos, pero contra los
   marginados, cuyas comunidades están siendo destrozadas todos los días debido
   a la violencia causada por las armas. Esto debe parar.
   
   Mientras viajamos a través de estos días de Adviento, una temporada de
   esperanza, oramos para que el Espíritu de Dios nos inspire a usar nuestras
   voces proféticas sabiamente en nombre de todas las comunidades vulnerables y
   marginadas del mundo.
   
   Paz, P. Kearney

   Lead by Robin Klueber, the menu is carefully prepared each week for balance
   and variety. The volunteer food pantry is run with much effort, detail, and
   organization, among many volunteers, from dontations, to orders and delivery
   trucks, through organizing and packaging, often with special touches, and
   thoughtfully given to a person or family in need. 
   
   Thank you to all of the many wonderful volunteers that continue to worked
   very hard to meet the needs
      of our friends
        and our community.

 *   THE CARDINAL'S APPEAL
   
   We are reminded as Christians to pray, fast, and give alms to the less
   fortunate. St. Paul tells us that we must, “Bear [our] share of hardship for
   the gospel.” In living a Christian life, we are asked to make sacrifices for
   the good of others and for the good of the Church. In light of the current
   situation regarding COVID-19, the words of St. Paul seem increasingly
   important.
   
   Many parishes will experience financial hardship in the near future, and most
   will struggle to meet critical needs. We understand that the financial
   circumstances of many of our families are uncertain, but please know of our
   deep gratitude for whatever you can contribute to support our Church during
   this challenging time.
   
   if you would like to make a gift to the Cardinal’s Appeal to support the
   broader needs of our archdiocese, you can do so at
   
   https://cardinalsappeal.org/donate.
   
   We are truly grateful for your generosity. Please know that we will continue
   to pray for those infected with COVID-19, those caring for the sick, and
   those that are the
   most vulnerable among us. 
    
   
   Los cristianos nos recuerdan rezar, ayunar y dar limosna a los menos
   afortunados. San Pablo nos dice que debemos, "Soportar [nuestra] parte de las
   dificultades
   por el evangelio ". Al vivir una vida cristiana, se nos pide que hagamos
   sacrificios por el bien de los demás y por el bien de la Iglesia. A la luz de
   la situación actual con respecto a COVID-19, las palabras de San Pablo
   parecen cada vez más importantes.
   
   Muchas parroquias experimentarán dificultades financieras en el futuro
   cercano, y la mayoría tendrá dificultades para satisfacer las necesidades
   críticas. Entiendo que las circunstancias financieras de muchos
   de nuestras familias no están seguras, pero sepan nuestra profunda gratitud
   por todo lo que puedan contribuir para apoyar a nuestra Iglesia durante este
   momento difícil. Apelación del Cardenal para apoyar las necesidades más
   amplias de nuestra diócesis, puede hacerlo en
   
   https://cardinalsappeal.org/donate.
   
   Estamos realmente agradecidos por su generosidad. Por favor sepan que
   continuaremos orando por aquellos infectados con COVID-19, aquellos que
   cuidan a los enfermos y aquellos que son los más vulnerable entre nosotros.
