GOSPEL OF THE DAY - December 22, 2022
Lk 1:46-56
Mary said: “My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my savior. for he has looked upon his lowly servant. From this day all generations will call me blessed: the Almighty has done great things for me, and holy is his Name. He has mercy on those who fear him in every generation. He has shown the strength of his arm, and has scattered the proud in their conceit. He has cast down the mighty from their thrones and has lifted up the lowly. He has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent away empty. He has come to the help of his servant Israel for he remembered his promise of mercy, the promise he made to our fathers, to Abraham and his children for ever.” Mary remained with Elizabeth about three months and then returned to her home.

An Advent message from Fr. Jeremy
Advent is a time of renewal. We journey once again towards the manger scene at Christmas, but the four weeks prior, we take time to listen to all the wonderful things God wants to do with our lives through Jesus. The pain that we bear, He wants to replace with joy; and all the worries we carry, He wants to replace with peace. We just have to believe! Take time this Advent to pay attention to the Word of the Lord. There may be something that needs replacing in you. Jesus is the one who can do it! |
