    Vatican News: Pope Leo XIV convenes his first Consistory of Cardinals

    December 20 2025
    Soline Humbert
    Joe, I don't really have a neat answer to your question: what you mention are undoubtedly some of the factors behind the resistance I have experienced. That resistance has been painful, harrowing even, but it has made it crystal clear to me that it has absolutely nothing to do with Jesus, the one 'born of a woman'. For that I am grateful! Beannachtaí na Nollag, Joyeux Noël to you and all ACP members and readers 🌟

    28 Dec 2025 – Sunday after Christmas – The Holy Family

    December 28 2025
    Thara Benedicta
    Key Message: God’s greatest work begins in faithful families. Testimony: I was so worried and depressed why my child was born as a special kid. As I was asking this question to Jesus, I got a reply, "Can your child survive in other families? How much she would have suffered. You sing, 'Let me lift up those who are weak...' Are you not able to see that you are lifting your own weak child?". I realized that Jesus blessed me with this child, because I was less compared to other moms. Because I was more than other moms. Usually there will be a celebration for someone or some family on the throne. But in Christianity, we celebrate a poorest of the poor family. A family which gave birth to their first-born in a manger, a house for animals. Not even in a hut meant for humans to stay. Yes, here we see a family with highest credentials: Jesus is God, Mary is full of grace, and Joseph is righteous. But their life was not easy or magical. They faced rejection (no room at the inn). They fled from danger (escaping to Egypt). They lived in exile, then settled in an unknown town. They raised a Son whose identity was a mystery even to them. Their life was filled with sufferings, though they were Holy. They were a Family like Yours, but Holy. The Gospel shows us that God entrusted His Son to a family. He didn’t send Jesus straight to a throne or temple. He sent Him to be cradled by a mother and guarded by a father. The family is God’s chosen vessel to nurture His mission. That means your family matters to our Lord Jesus. Whether it’s a young couple, a single parent with children, an elderly couple, or a household filled with daily chaos. In today's first reading, Sirach reminds us to honor parents, especially when they grow old or weak. St. Paul invites us to clothe ourselves with compassion, patience, meekness, and above all, love. Friends, holiness is not only in big, dramatic acts. It’s in little little acts like a patient word when you want to snap, washing dishes without being asked, praying as a family when the world is noisy, rising early to work, like St. Joseph, even when unnoticed. Lessons for Our Homes: What can we imitate? Like Joseph, be silent but strong, protective and obedient to God’s voice. Like Mary, be open, faithful and reflective, even when confused. Like Jesus, be humble and obedient, even when you know more. God is not asking for perfection in your home. But He is asking for faithfulness. Build Your Domestic Church: Let us not just admire the Holy Family today. Let us imitate them. Create a little altar in your home. Pray the Rosary as a family. Say “I’m sorry” and “I love you” more often. Ask St. Joseph and Mother Mary to protect your house. Your home can become a Nazareth, a holy ground where our Lord Jesus lives.

    24 Dec 2025 + Christmas Midnight & Dawn Masses (below) 

    December 24 2025
    Thara Benedicta
    Key Message: God’s greatest gift is not under the tree, but in the manger and in your heart!! Testimony: "When I was a child I was excited for Christmas because I will have a new dress, new sweets, fun and lots of fun. Now nothing excites me other than my baby Jesus!!" St. Paul tells us in the second reading: “When the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, He saved us not because of any works of righteousness that we had done, but according to His mercy…” (Ti 3:4–5) Jesus didn’t come because we deserved Him. He came because we needed Him. That’s why the gift of Christ is not earned, it’s received. The Prophet Isaiah proclaims: “See, your Saviour comes!” (Is 62:11) He has arrived not by Amazon, not by FedEx :) But through a virgin’s womb, laid in a manger, announced by angels, welcomed by shepherds. And yet, just like so many unopened presents left sitting under the tree, many hearts still haven’t unwrapped Jesus. We admire Him from a distance or place Him neatly in a nativity scene but not in our daily lives. What’s inside this gift? St. Paul unwraps it for us in today’s second reading (Titus 3): “The goodness and loving kindness of God our Saviour appeared… He saved us… not because of our righteousness, but by His mercy…” Inside this one gift is mercy, identity, transformation, forgiveness, peace, and eternal life. And it is all free!! The greatest tragedy is not that some people reject the gift… It’s that many simply leave it unopened. In today's Gospel, (Luke 2:15–20), the shepherds teach us what to do: “Let us go now to Bethlehem and see…” They did not delay or debate like what we generally do. They just ran and opened their gift!! Let us open and speak to the baby Jesus hiding inside our heart!! All that He came into the world is just for us!!

    Julieann Moran: Synodal Pathway Update

    December 17 2025
    M G-B
    Hats off to Theologians who continue to wrestle with questions of faith, reason and the modern world. It is their intellectual struggle with these questions that allows the church to advance Catholic thought.
