My dear brothers and sisters in Christ, let us pray in today’s Eucharistic celebration for the willingness to be obedient to God as we prepare ourselves to welcome His Son our Lord Jesus Christ into our world and our lives this Christmas season. May we continue to follow Christ more obediently and answer our call to discipleship through our Faith, Hope and Trust in Him.

Let us prepare the way of the Lord this Advent season with the practices of Prayer, Mortification and Examination of Conscience as we endure all the challenges, difficulties and struggles that come our way when we work hard in our spiritual lives.
