Advent…..It is a time of
preparation, waiting and hope. The Advent liturgy resounds with the
longing cries of the Hebrew prophets, the voice of Jesus, and John the
Baptist's preaching that the Lord is near. Hear their message still
ringing through today's readings.
It is, therefore, important for
us to recapture the season of Advent as a time for preparing for
Christmas. Advent is a time for self-examination and asking for
forgiveness as the Church is preparing for Christ’s Second Coming.
Advent is more a time of
preparation and expectation of the coming of the Lord. It is a
good opportunity to come together as a family
and do something special for Advent with hopes of strengthening the faith
of families. Our family moments lighting
candles in the Advent wreath, and our children should be a priority. We
must be accountable for the faithfulness at His coming, and the
hope of eternal life.
I would like to extend my personal thanks to every brother and your
families for all the hard work which you have so abundantly completed.
Have a very Merry Christmas and may God Bless you and keep you.
Sincerely,
Stan &
Colette Zmorzynski and Family |
