November 29, 2015 With Blessed Father Alberione and With Father Tom

Sunday, November 29
FIRST SUNDAY OF ADVENT
Jer 33: 14-16
Ps 25: 4-14
1 Thes 3: 12-4: 2
Lk 21: 25028, 34-36

The liturgy prepares us for a closer contemplation of the life of Jesus, for a better understanding of the mysteries of our faith, for a greater desire for perfection and sanctity (BM 522).

From Father Tom: The Founder seems to be speaking not of ceremonies in Church with music and song, but rather of the choice of Readings and the meaning of Feasts. But do these in fact prepare Catholics for "a greater desire for perfection and sanctity?" Over to you.
