Fourth Sunday of ADVENT

 
 
Restore us, O LORD God of hosts; let your face shine,
that we may be saved. ~ Psalm 80:19
 
 
 
 
"As we anticipate the celebration of Christmas,
we want to be with our Lord in the Holy Mass
each day, if possible, offering ourselves to Him
and with Him in the Eucharistic Sacrifice.
We want to spend time with Him in prayer
before the Blessed Sacrament, either reposed
in the tabernacle or exposed for adoration.

We also desire to meet our Lord in the Sacrament of Penance, confessing our sins to Him, with sorrow, and receiving from Him, through the ministry of the priest, the absolution of our sins.

There is no better way to make our final preparation for Christmas than to spend time with our Eucharistic Lord and to meet Him in the Sacrament of Penance."

His Eminence Raymond Cardinal Burke,
"The Last Days of Advent"

 "That our heart, close to God, may be purified
more and more until the day we are granted eternal repose."
