OPLATKI WAFERS
AVAILABLE AT THE GIFT
SHOP & PARISH OFFICE
The Christmas wafer (opłatek, plural opłatki) is a
Central European Christian Christmas tradition celebrated in Polish families during Christmas Eve V igil.
The unleavened wafers are baked from pure wheat
flour and water, are usually rectangular in shape and
very thin; they are identical in composition to a round
wafer which becomes the Host after the Consecration
during Mass in the Roman Catholic Church. Being
only a reminder of the Body of Christ used in private
homes, Opłatki lack sanctification by a priest or bishop. The Opłatki wafers are embossed with Christmas
related religious images, varying from the nativity scene, especially Virgin Mary with baby Jesus to the Star
of Bethlehem.
COST IS $3.00
AVAILABLE AT GIFT SHOP & PARISH OFFICE
There will be NO Coffee & Donuts after
the 10:30 Mass on Nov. 30 due to the
40th Anniversary Reception.

Our Lord Jesus Christ,
King of the Universe
Reflecting on God’s Word
Political power meets spiritual power in today’s conversation between Jesus and Pilate. “Are
you the King of the Jews?” Pilate asks Jesus (John 18:33). Pilate is concerned about whether
Jesus is a threat to Roman rule, just as the Jewish leaders see Jesus as a threat to their authority. Jesus is thus either guilty of fomenting insurrection as a militant messiah or of speaking
blasphemy by presenting himself as one who inaugurates the reign of God.
Jesus, however, speaks not about himself as a king but about a kingdom that “does not belong
to this world” (John 18:36). This kingdom may not be of this world but it is in this world.
God’s kingdom is present in Jesus as one who comes to bear witness to the truth. And what is
this truth? That “God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life” (John 3:16).
Jesus is the Word become flesh who made his dwelling among us, so that we might see his
glory, “the glory of the Father’s only Son, / full of grace and truth” (John 1:14). The hour of
glory was the hour of the cross, the hour not of political power, but God’s power shining
through human weakness, bringing light into the darkness, revealing self-sacrificing love so
that we might have life.
Political power tends to be an upward climb into dominance and authority that must be protected at all costs. It frequently leads to isolation and abuse, to clinging to power as its own
end. Spiritual power is having the strength to trust God and surrender so that God can reign,
not by conquest or political alliances, but through human weakness and surrender to God.

40 Years - Celebrating Church of the Resurrection
MISSION STATEMENT OF OUR PARISH
“Convinced that Jesus communicates new life to those who believe in Him, and that He was raised from
the dead in order that we might live, we are united to the risen Lord as a people born anew to a life of
hope. Called together as a people of faith, we believe that the Father who raised Jesus from the dead will
also raise us, and that we will continue to bear witness to the fact that we are liberated from sin.
