Bulletin reflection - First Sunday of Advent

This weekend, we not only begin the month of December, but we begin the holy season of Advent as we prepare for the coming of the Lord. In our readings today, we hear about the signs that will come in the end times, because we should always have our eyes fixed on the eternal life we will have in our Lord. However, I don’t think these signs are noted in order for us to try to predict the coming of the end times. Rather, the message of these reading about the end times to lead us and guide us in the way we live out our life each day. I pray that you all have a blessed Advent season, these holy days of preparation.  Father Lincoln.
