Advent Reflections |
Advent: "The feast of the Birth of Christ does not clash with the trial we are experiencing, because it is the feast of compassion, of tenderness par excellence. Its beauty is humble and full of human warmth" Pope Francis, November 22nd 2021 Continuing a tradition of some years now, the Knights of Saint Columbanus once again invite you to join them in some prayerful reflection during Advent. It can be a challenge to find some peace and quiet during the exciting but busy preparation leading up to Christmas and the season of Advent can perhaps pass by largely unnoticed. We invite you to join us for Mass at 7pm each Friday in St John the Baptist Church and then to stay for 30 minutes quiet reflection before the Blessed Sacrament where we will hear about Gospel readings during each of the Sundays of Advent. Please consider giving yourself an early Christmas present and we look forward to seeing you each Friday evening. |
