    “Our task is to seek and find Christ in our world as it is, not as it might be,” wrote Merton. “The fact that the world is other than it might be does not alter the truth that Christ is present in it and that His plan has been neither frustrated nor changed: indeed, all will be done according to His will.
    “Our Advent is a celebration of this hope. What is uncertain is not the ‘coming’ of Christ but our own reception of Him, our own response to Him, our own readiness and capacity to ‘go forth to meet him.'”
    In other words: “Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths.”
    Turns out John the Baptist is right on time, not only in this season but in this period of history. The world tries to tangle us up in heartbreak and division, but John reminds us in the bluntest of terms that this world holds nothing for us.

    ADVENT WAITING
    “While Christ remained hidden in Mary, his rest was a tremendous activity; he was making her into himself, making himself from her. From her eyes he was making the eyes that would weep over Jerusalem, that would shine upon the wildflowers, that would close in death and open in the morning of Resurrection. From her hands he was making the hands that would heal and raise the dead and be nailed to the cross. From her heart he was making the heart whose love would redeem the world. The same thing happens when, allowing the Infant Christ to rest in us, we wait patiently on his own timing of his growth in us, and give him just what he asks, the extremely simple things that are ourselves-our hands and feet, our eyes and ears, our words, our thoughts, our love. Not only does he grow in us, but we are formed into Him.”
    - Caryll Houselander

    ADVENT WEEKDAY
    TODAY'S READINGS: Isaiah 29:17-24; Matthew 9:27-31. “Let it be done for you according to your faith.”

    Walk with each other

    Today, the church remembers martyrs Jean Donovan, Maura Clarke, Dorothy Kazel, and Ita Ford, brutally murdered for standing with the poor in war-torn El Salvador in 1980. Their witness still speaks profoundly to us today as we encounter our own wars, violence, and suffering, especially among the most vulnerable. And still, we struggle to know what to do. Let us take courage as we ponder the questions posed by Ita Ford in 1977: "Am I willing to suffer with the people here, the suffering of the powerless? Can I say to my neighbors, ‘I have no solution to this situation. I don't know the answers, but I will walk with you, search with you, be with you?'"

    "One of [the kids] slid off of her chair and fell onto the floor, screaming because I accidentally touched her candle. The other two fought over who got to light the candle. This was supposed to be a magical moment, and instead, it was a hot mess!" Ashley Wallace

    5 Practical Suggestions for Doing Advent Devotions with Your Children

    1. It’s all about grace.

    I try to think about Jesus if he were sitting leading the devotions.

    Would he get angry? Would he demand that they sit still, pay attention, and “get it”?

    Or would he, to borrow language from Luke 13:34, lovingly gather them in his arms as a mother hen gathers her chicks under her wings. This helps me to patiently answer their questions and laugh a whole lot!

    2. It’s not going to be perfect…ever!

    BUT over time, you are making memories, sweet memories, and you are establishing holy practices and traditions.

    3. Fire is your friend.

    Simply lighting candles and turning the lights down low immediately creates a sense of awe in young children. They really do quiet down a little, and it makes them feel like something special is happening.

    4. Try to have different levels of engagement.

    Let the older children participate in reading the scriptures, leading the devotion, or lighting the candles. Let your smaller children look at some kind of Jesus picture book.

    I’ve even given my littlest ones something that they can manipulate and play with while listening.

    5. Chill out!

    You are not trying to create the perfect Instagram moment!

    Remember what you are trying to do. You are trying to usher your family into the presence of God, who is always delighted to welcome us there…hot mess and all!     ... See MoreSee Less

    Where is God’s word to be kept?
    Obviously, in the heart, as the prophet says,
    “I have hidden your words in my heart,
    so that I may not sin against you.”

    Keep God’s word in this way.
    Let it enter your very being,
    let it take possession of your desires
    and your whole way of life.

    Feed on goodness
    and your soul will delight in richness.
    Remember to eat your bread
    or your heart will wither away.
    Fill your soul with richness and strength.

    If you keep the word of God in this way,
    it will also keep you.

    --St Bernard of Clairvaux     ... See MoreSee Less

    Now the Lord saw him go forward to look, and God called to him from the middle of the bush, ‘Moses! Moses!’
    ‘Here I am’ he answered.
    - Exodus 3: 4

    Where can hear God’s call in my life today?
    How can I be present to God?

    Build on higher ground

    Anyone who has followed the news over the past year has seen more images than ever of people coping with floods. Families waiting on rooftops, people stuffed in boats, neighbors wading through murky water. Jesus constantly used images to make his point, including the image of discipleship as a solid house that stands firm during storms and floods. “Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies,” Saint Teresa of Calcutta once said. Are you building a strong, flood-proof house in the small things you do each day?

    ADVENT WEEKDAY
    TODAY'S READINGS: Isaiah 26:1-6; Matthew 7:21, 24-27. “Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock.”

    Make your house fair as you are able, trim the hea Make your house fair as you are able, trim the hearth and set the table. People look East and sing today: Love, the Guest, is on the way. 🎨 Angels Garlanding the Infant Christ (date unknown) - Ann Macbeth
    ADVENT WAITING “While Christ remained hidden in ADVENT WAITING “While Christ remained hidden in Mary, his rest was a tremendous activity; he was making her into himself, making himself from her. From her eyes he was making the eyes that would weep over Jerusalem, that would shine upon the wildflowers, that would close in death and open in the morning of Resurrection. From her hands he was making the hands that would heal and raise the dead and be nailed to the cross. From her heart he was making the heart whose love would redeem the world. The same thing happens when, allowing the Infant Christ to rest in us, we wait patiently on his own timing of his growth in us, and give him just what he asks, the extremely simple things that are ourselves-our hands and feet, our eyes and ears, our words, our thoughts, our love. Not only does he grow in us, but we are formed into Him.” - Caryll Houselander 📸Statue of expectant Mary in Magdala, on the shore of Galilee from our 2022 parish pilgrimage
    Friday, Dec 02, 2022 ADVENT WEEKDAY TODAY'S READIN Friday, Dec 02, 2022 ADVENT WEEKDAY TODAY'S READINGS: Isaiah 29:17-24; Matthew 9:27-31. “Let it be done for you according to your faith.” Walk with each other Today, the church remembers martyrs Jean Donovan, Maura Clarke, Dorothy Kazel, and Ita Ford, brutally murdered for standing with the poor in war-torn El Salvador in 1980. Their witness still speaks profoundly to us today as we encounter our own wars, violence, and suffering, especially among the most vulnerable. And still, we struggle to know what to do. Let us take courage as we ponder the questions posed by Ita Ford in 1977: "Am I willing to suffer with the people here, the suffering of the powerless? Can I say to my neighbors, ‘I have no solution to this situation. I don't know the answers, but I will walk with you, search with you, be with you?'" #takefiveforfaith
    "One of [the kids] slid off of her chair and fell "One of [the kids] slid off of her chair and fell onto the floor, screaming because I accidentally touched her candle. The other two fought over who got to light the candle. This was supposed to be a magical moment, and instead, it was a hot mess!" Ashley Wallace 5 Practical Suggestions for Doing Advent Devotions with Your Children 1. It’s all about grace. I try to think about Jesus if he were sitting leading the devotions. Would he get angry? Would he demand that they sit still, pay attention, and “get it”? Or would he, to borrow language from Luke 13:34, lovingly gather them in his arms as a mother hen gathers her chicks under her wings. This helps me to patiently answer their questions and laugh a whole lot! 2. It’s not going to be perfect…ever! BUT over time, you are making memories, sweet memories, and you are establishing holy practices and traditions. 3. Fire is your friend. Simply lighting candles and turning the lights down low immediately creates a sense of awe in young children. They really do quiet down a little, and it makes them feel like something special is happening. 4. Try to have different levels of engagement. Let the older children participate in reading the scriptures, leading the devotion, or lighting the candles. Let your smaller children look at some kind of Jesus picture book. I’ve even given my littlest ones something that they can manipulate and play with while listening. 5. Chill out! You are not trying to create the perfect Instagram moment! Remember what you are trying to do. You are trying to usher your family into the presence of God, who is always delighted to welcome us there…hot mess and all!

    Where is God’s word to be kept? Obviously, in th Where is God’s word to be kept? Obviously, in the heart, as the prophet says, “I have hidden your words in my heart, so that I may not sin against you.” Keep God’s word in this way. Let it enter your very being, let it take possession of your desires and your whole way of life. Feed on goodness and your soul will delight in richness. Remember to eat your bread or your heart will wither away. Fill your soul with richness and strength. If you keep the word of God in this way, it will also keep you. --St Bernard of Clairvaux

    Thursday, Dec 01, 2022 Build on higher ground Any Thursday, Dec 01, 2022 Build on higher ground Anyone who has followed the news over the past year has seen more images than ever of people coping with floods. Families waiting on rooftops, people stuffed in boats, neighbors wading through murky water. Jesus constantly used images to make his point, including the image of discipleship as a solid house that stands firm during storms and floods. “Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies,” Saint Teresa of Calcutta once said. Are you building a strong, flood-proof house in the small things you do each day? ADVENT WEEKDAY TODAY'S READINGS: Isaiah 26:1-6; Matthew 7:21, 24-27. “Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock.” #takefiveforfaith

    FEAST OF ANDREW, APOSTLE Wednesday, Nov 30, 2022 B FEAST OF ANDREW, APOSTLE Wednesday, Nov 30, 2022 Be first to follow the Lord It’s no coincidence that Saint Andrew the Apostle is linked to Advent (which traditionally begins on the Sunday closest to his feast day). In Eastern Christianity he is known as protokletos, “first called,” because it was Andrew, who had been a disciple of John the Baptist, who persuaded his brother Simon (whom we know as Peter) to follow Jesus with his words, "We have found the Messiah!” Andrew also has a devotion linked to Advent, known as the Saint Andrew Novena. Try it out and see if it supports and deepens your living out your own call. TODAY'S READINGS: Romans 10:9-18; Matthew 4:18-22. “At once they left their nets and followed him.” #takefiveforfaith
    Joy is a pervasive, abiding gladness, an inner pea Joy is a pervasive, abiding gladness, an inner peace that flows from being secure in God’s love. And nothing makes us more joyful and secure than the knowledge that God is with us—Emmanuel! As a result, joy is capable of withstanding anything that life tosses its way, even suffering. Joy is at the very heart of the Kingdom of God. If we are inviting someone to enter the Kingdom of God, we had better show some joy. Of all people, we should be the most free, alive, interesting. While joy may not always be expressed in smiles and laughter, it is always characterized by a lack of cynicism and negativity. Joy leaves no room for despair. In one of his daily homilies, Pope Francis insisted that “long faces cannot proclaim Jesus. Joy alone and praise of God are the only way to advance the Gospel.” (May 31, 2013) This is why there are more feast days than fast days in the Christian calendar—joy trumps sorrow! This Advent, make sure that when you enter a room or join in a conversation, things brighten up a notch! —Joe Paprocki 📸A joyous Betty Gallagher (now dancing in heaven, no doubt) and Cary Gould
