First Sunday of Advent Year A

Advent Wreath

Count Down to Christmas

Do you have a Bible in your house? Perhaps you couild buy one during Advent. The Good News Bible is a good family Bible. You might like to read the first two chapters in the Gospel of St Luke as you get ready for Christmas. You can also read the Bible online.

Children’s Preparation for Mass on December 1 The new church year has begun today! Advent gives us a chance to make a brand new start as we get ready to celebrate the birth of Jesus. Jesus wants space in our hearts because He loves us so much. We make space in our hearts by becoming more loving and willing to do everything God asks of us. How can you become more loving this week? Draw a picture of what you plan on doing and bring it to Mass with you.
