ADVENT AT THE MIDWAY POINT : IS IT BEING A TRANSFORMING SEASON OF ANTICIPATION, UNITY, HOPE, AND REPENTANCE FOR YOU ?...........

As we move into the 3rd Sunday and Week of Advent, the midway point of our Watching for the Lord Jesus' imfolding Coming and Holy Presence to us, are you finding it a transforming experience of the Call to Anticipation, Unity, Hope, and Repentance, so much the essence of the Coming Christ ?  Halfway through these holy days as we arrive at the Joyful Sunday of the Advent Season, and a day and a week that draws us into expressing our personal and communal joy and gladness that our observance of the Coming of Christ in history, that first Christmas more than two thousand years is drawing nearer.  Despite the challenges and struggles present in our lives, in God's Prophetic Word, and the Person of Jesus, Co-Eternal Son of the Heavenly Father and Redeemer of Humankind, we have reason to be glad and joyful in the Lord.  May the seven days ahead help you to discover the Joy and Gladness this 3rd Week of Advent brings...........Fr.  Troy
