This weekend we celebrate Guadete Sunday, a symbol of joy in the midst of the Advent season as the day of our savior’s birth draws near. I know that all of us are so busy during this holiday season with different gatherings and events and our preparations for Christmas. We priests are very busy going to Advent reconciliation services at the different parishes in the area. We always schedule the reconciliation services for Yazoo City, Clinton, and the two main Vicksburg parishes on the same week, so we priests can arrange our schedules to help each other. Our Advent reconciliation service here in Clinton will be this Wednesday, December 16. I hope that you have time in your busy schedule to be a part of this Advent devotion. Have a blessed week everyone. Father Lincoln.
This is a blog of homilies, reflections, and photos from a Roman Catholic priest serving in the Diocese of Jackson in the state of Mississippi. Currently, I am the pastor of Holy Savior in Clinton and Immaculate Conception in Raymond. I have served as Vicar General of the Diocese since July 2019. I also serve as Catholic chaplain in the federal prison in Yazoo City and the state prison in Pearl.
