Dear Friends,
Today is the First Sunday of Advent, the beginning of the new year in the Church. We hear Jesus call us to vigilance as we start this season. Keeping “vigil” is being prepared for the arrival; the active anticipation of the Lord’s return. Vigilance is not just for the Advent Season but is part of our Christian life. Jesus will return and bring all things to completion, or “perfection.” Life will be lived in its fullness and will know no end. As we long for the Lord’s return our hears are filled with hope.
Magnificat Advent booklets are available at all the entrances to the Church. The booklets give short reflections for each day of the season. Reading these passages is a wonderful way to keep the season and to be renewed in hope.
I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. Once again welcome to all our visitors from out of town. Enjoy your time with your families and safe journey home.
Thanks to everyone who helped “swap” out the missalettes after the 10:00 a.m. Mass last weekend. So many people help which helps get the job done pretty quickly and smoothly, your help is greatly appreciated.
The annual Day of Sanctification for Priests is tomorrow at Mother of Divine Providence Parish in King of Prussia. Please keep all of us in your prayers as we begin this new liturgical year.
Next Sunday, December 8 at 12:30 is the annual PREP Christmas Pageant, all are welcome to attend. The production by our youth is enjoyed each year by many parishioners, please join us for this wonderful event.
Have a great Advent!
God bless,
Monsignor Prior
