St. Jude Parish a Stewardship Community PASTOR’S POTPOURRI
ADVENT – THE
COMING OF THE LORD It’s a new church year. We hear now from the
Gospel of Mark for the coming year. We bless and light the Advent
wreathe. The vestments are purple…a time of prepara-tion. It is
time for us to begin again reflecting on the life and ministry of
Jesus. There are three comings we cele-brate… the past when Jesus
came the first time and was born of Mary… the present when he comes
in word and sacrament as we celebrate the scriptures and receive
the Eucharist… the future, when he will come again in glory as he
promised. We are called to be alert, to be watchful for his coming
so that we do not miss it. We are not just get-ting ready for
Christmas. We are using this time to draw close to the Lord and
look even to his coming in glo-ry. Christmas will commemorate the
first coming of the Lord and remind us of how blessed we are in
being believ-ers. May the Lord bless you in your preparation and in
the joy of this season.
—Fr. Bob
