THIS WEEKEND!
Choose Life
One thing that is both certain and
uncertain is death. Its ambiguity
creates a sense of anxiety and a
desire to escape its grip at all
costs. We fear death; we fear
that we will be forgotten; we fear
going to hell. We need to pause and reflect on
Christian hope and “the last things.”
In the Gospel, Jesus talks to those who do not
believe in the resurrection. What will happen to us
after we die? What will the resurrection be like?
Will I see my family and loved ones? Jesus avoids
the details. God is “not the God of the dead, but of
the living.” St. Paul says that God is always faithful,
directing our lives toward love of God in Christ.
God wants everyone to have everlasting life.
Traditional Catholic teaching claims that life after
death is open to all people. God condemns no one,
but we can condemn ourselves. Like the Maccabean
brothers in today’s first reading, we have the
freedom to choose life or death.
Belief in the resurrection of the dead involves a sur-
render of the total self into the loving arms of God.
We prepare for death by the way we live. Daily mo-
ments of prayer are moments of surrender to God,
who is always faithful. Our communal prayer at the
Eucharist is our “yes” to a future life of promise. —Living With Christ
St. Didacus, Our Patron Saint Saint Didacus had a fond devotion for the poor and
was considered to have imprudent generosity in
sharing with them the food that was meant for the
friars. While on his way to the poor with food
wrapped in his habit he was stopped by his
superior who asked to see what was in the folds.
Knowing that he would be reprimanded, he
answered that he was carrying flowers. When asked
to reveal what he had, he opened the folds of his
habit and a variety of flowers cascaded to the
ground.
Thanks to your generosity, we are able to carry on
the mission of St. Didacus to offer food assistance
to those in need in our parish and community.
On the Cover: You might not recognize this statue of St. Didacus. It is on display at the San Diego Museum of Art in Balboa Park. It is a beautiful mid-17th century sculpture by Spanish artist, Pedro de Mena. Take a trip to the museum to see this beautiful statue. It is on perma-nent display on the second floor in their European Art section.

It has become a tradition for the
8th grade class to leave a gift to
current and future students of St.
Didacus School. This year’s 8th
grade class is raising funds to help
purchase a Bar-coding System to
benefit the St. Didacus School
Library. Specially engraved Christmas ornaments
depicting St. Didacus Parish Church will be available
for sale through Advent to help them meet their goal
of purchasing this special system for the school. Thank
you for your support of this school tradition.
The 8th Graders will be selling these special
ornaments after Mass this weekend. Your
purchases will help them leave a
lasting gift to the school.

St. Didacus, Nuestro
Santo Patrón
San Didacus (San Diego)
siempre quería ayudar a
los pobres y sus superio-
res consideraban que a
veces era imprudente su
generosidad, al compar-
tir la comida que era pa-
ra los frailes y se la daba
a los pobres. Un día le
llevaba comida a los po-
bres y envolvió la comi-
da en su hábito; su su-
perior lo detuvo, le pidió ver lo que llevaba
en los pliegues de su habito. Y el le dijo
que llevaba flores. El superior le pidió, que
abriera los pliegues de su hábito, en don-
de había una gran variedad de flores que
cayeron en el suelo.
Gracias a su generosidad de nuestra co-
munidad parroquial hemos sido capaces
de llevar a cabo la misión de San Didacus
para ofrecer comida a los necesitados de
nuestra parroquia y de la comunidad.
El Servicio de la Cultura de la
Vida les agradece que devuelva
su biberón para ayudar a las ma-
dres que necesitan asistencia.
