O M Go, therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of
the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:19)
O V S
By our baptism and confirmation we are initiated into the Paschal Mysteries of Christ and given the gift of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit empowers us and sends us to go forth to evangelize, invite, educate, inform and form all peoples into the one family of Christ where all are one in love, and serving Christ and one another.
Together, with the family of St. Edward Catholic Church and St. Jude Chapel, we endeavor to pursue our mis-sion vigorously in order to make Christ known, loved and served by all, in hopes of setting the community and
the world a blaze. (Luke 12:49)

WATCHFUL CONFIDENCE We the Church enter into Advent and the new liturgical year with a call for a watchful confidence. Our readings were originally addressed to communities undergoing great loss and confusion. Jeremiah speaks confidently of God fulfilling the ancient promises to Israel, even during a time of foreign invasion. Paul speaks of God leading the Church into holiness, while the community longs for the coming of Jesus. In the Gospel passage from Luke, Jesus speaks of powerful signs and of great confusion to come, but emphasizes that we may look forward knowing that God brings not cause for despair, but hope. We celebrate Advent to remind each other of God’s faithfulness. We are to be watchful, to see how God is stirring up our world. God disturbs both our pride and our complacency, and brings us healing and justice. We prepare ourselves to welcome Jesus, confident that God indeed fulfills all these divine promises.
PRAYER OF THE WEEK First Sunday of Advent Grant your faithful, we pray, almighty God, the resolve to run forth to meet your Christ with righteous deeds at his coming, so that, gathered at his right hand, they may be worthy to possess the heavenly Kingdom. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, for ever and ever.
