Live the Faith! Preparing for The First Week of Advent: The Second Coming

November 27, 2018

“Now when these things begin to take place, look up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.
– Luke 21:28

Live the Faith! Tip of the Week:
Read and discuss the upcoming Sunday Gospel (Luke 21:25-28, 34-36) with your family this week and each week of Advent. Decide with your spouse when this will take place this week and each week so that your family can truly prepare with the Church for the coming of Christ.

Prayer:
Lord, thank you for this time of Advent which “refreshes us and makes us healthy and able to receive You in whatever form You may come to us,” as Mother Teresa said. Give us the grace to empty ourselves in humility so that You find the space in our hearts to fill us with Your love.  Amen.
