Our Advent Mission will be offered over two Mondays in Advent. Each evening of our Mission will offer the opportunity for renewal through Word and Sacrament, prayer and reflection. Our Mission Mondays begin with refreshments followed by an Advent reflection. Refreshments and discussion will close about 5:45 PM, leaving plenty of time to fast and prepare for Mass. At 6 pm, we will gather in the Church to pray the Rosary, followed by Mass. The Mission will close with Adoration, during which Confessions will be offered.
Please join us for Mass and one or more of the Mission events:
Mission Monday Schedule November 30th and December 14th 5pm – Refreshments 5:15pm – talk/reflection 5:45pm – Angelus 6:00pm – Rosary in the church 6:30pm – Mass, Adoration and Confessions
The Real Gift of Advent and Christmas: Exploring Hope & the Family Have you ever really considered the significance of Jesus coming as a baby to live in a family? Or why the season of Advent is associated with the virtue of hope? Save the dates for our Advent Mission Mondays where guest priests will explore these themes and ultimately unravel what is ‘The Real Gift of Advent and Christmas’.
On November 30, Msgr. E. James Hart will highlight how Advent exalts the significance of children and family—as God, our Creator and Redeemer, brought into being and instituted—the importance of which cannot be overstated!
What is hope? Fr. Carmen Mele O.P. will join us on December 14 to talk about hope and why it is so connected to the season of Advent using both biblical and theological perspectives.
