St. Patrick Church

We can receive great consolation from the readings this Second Sunday of Advent. The Lord gives comfort to His people, speaking tenderly to them, being patient with them as they prepare the way of the Lord.

Happy Advent! We enter into this new liturgical season with Jesus telling us to "Be watchful! Be alert!" Advent is a time of active waiting, staying attentive not only to the movements of God's grace at work in our midst, but also remaining watchful and on guard from the snares of the enemy.
