What Is the “Business” of the Church?
Many parish leaders know what it feels like to be busy. There are Masses to prepare, ministries to coordinate, buildings to maintain, events to organise, funds to raise, and people to care for. In many parishes, there is no shortage of activity. Calendars are full. Volunteers are stretched. Programmes continue year after year.
A Summary of Christifideles Laici
In a world where life often feels like an endless chase for more, this Advent invites us to slow down and set our sights higher – not on material gain, but on spiritual growth.
Filled with Scripture reflections, sharing questions and faith-growing activities, the Advent to Christmas booklet is your companion to grow in holiness, one week at time.
Use these reflections before participating in the Sunday’s liturgy as a way of preparing to receive God’s Word at the Eucharistic Celebration. Alternatively, we can come around it after participating in the Sunday liturgy as a continuation of “breaking open the Word of God” in our lives.
May our hearts be stirred by a thrill of hope as we prepare to welcome the joy of Jesus’ coming.
