Happy New (Church) Year
Today is the first day of the new church year — the First Sunday of Advent. Advent begins our joyful anticipation of the celebration of Jesus’ birth. Advent is one of my favorite seasons because I love the readings of these four weeks. The reading for Morning Prayer (from the Liturgy of the Hours) is from Paul’s letter to the Romans:
It is now the hour for you to wake from sleep, for our salvation is closer than when we first accepted the faith. The night is far spent; the day draws near. Let us cast off deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light. (Romans 13:11-12)
Have a blessed Advent season … Sister J
