Thought for the Week
ADVENT: COME LORD JESUS: The word “advent” (the arrival of an important person or thing) is derived from the Latin word “adventus,” which means “coming.” For Catholics, Advent is the four-week season leading up to Christmas. During Advent we anticipate the coming of Jesus. It’s a time full of reflection, excitement, and hope. Advent is a season on the Church's liturgical calendar. We tend to think of Advent only as the season in which we prepare for Christmas, or the First Coming of Christ, it is important that we also remember it as a celebration in which we look forward to the Second Coming of Christ at the end of time and his coming to us in our day to day life through the reception of the sacraments. We prepare for everything we consider important in life. You wouldn’t show up to play in a football game and expect to win if you had not been training. You wouldn’t show up unprepared to give a big presentation at work and expect to get the project. We don’t expect to excel in exams if we have not studied. Consider the preparation that goes into hosting a barbecue, a dinner party, or a wedding. Now I don’t mean the typical Christmas preparations. >>
