Advent Begins!

The season of Advent begins next weekend. Are you ready to make the most of this season that invites us to prepare for our celebration of his first coming (Christmas) and his coming at the end of time.

As a minimum, I hope all of us make time to pray with greater focus. Consider some of the following possibilities.

1) Advent Wreath
Place an Advent Wreath on your family table and use it as a focus of prayer before you eat.

2) Mass
Consider attending Mass during the week (6:30 am and 8:10 am daily).

3) Consider offering some of your bounty to a charitable organization or to a family in need.

4) Invite someone to join you for Sunday Mass during Advent or on Christmas.

5) Come to Eucharistic Adoration on Mondays
between 5:00 - 8:00 pm.

Don’t let Christmas come and go without considering its significance, God has visited his people in the person of his son, Jesus Christ.
