Blessing of Advent Wreath - 1st Sunday of Advent - November 27, 2016 - St James Catholic Church, Tupelo, Mississippi



Lord, today we being our Advent journey. 
It is a journey that takes us to the top of the mountain
and allows us to look at the wonder of creation. 
We pray for faith during our Advent journey, 
a faith that sees God in a new-born infant, 
a faith that sees the savior in the Eucharist. 
Strengthen our faith, 
a faith that is symbolized by the blessing 
of our Advent wreath and the lighting of our 
first Advent candle today.  
When we reach the end of our Advent journey, 
let us reach Christmas day with joy.  AMEN.
