First Sunday of Advent

  • Set up and bless the family Advent wreath. Sing "O Come Emmanuel" and light the first candle.

  • Listen to the audio retreat for the the First Sunday of Advent. The guest and homilist for this  week's English retreat is Auxiliary Bishop Joseph R. Binzer of Cincinnati. In Spanish, we will hear from Bishop Fernando Isern of Pueblo. The retreats, made possible by donations to the Catholic Communication Campaign, were produced by Franciscan Media.

  • Reflect on today's readings.

  • Make or purchase an Advent calendar and open the window for the first day of the season or download our Family Advent Calendar and post it in your home as a reminder to take time for prayer and family every day during this holy season.
