Matthew7:21
It is not those who say to me, ‘Lord, Lord’, who will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the person who does the will of my Father in heaven.

In today’s gospel, Jesus tells his story to emphasise how important it is not just to listen to his word, but also to act on it.

How do we keep the commandments to love God and one another? How can we care for our world, and for our sisters and brothers who are vulnerable, no matter where they are? How do we speak up for what we know is right and stand firm in the face of the storms of opposition that we might face?

Advent prayer
God our Father,
guide us to do your will,
to stand firm in our faith
and to love you and one another
as we seek the kingdom of heaven.
Amen.

Matthewv15:32
Jesus called his disciples to him and said, ‘I have compassion on the crowd because they have been with me now three days and have nothing to eat. And I am unwilling to send them away hungry, lest they faint on the way.’

Jesus takes pity on the crowd and shares out seven loaves and a few small fish to feed them all. It is a story of welcome, of compassion, where Jesus meets the physical needs of his people.
This Advent, we are called as disciples of Christ to think about what we can do to support the needs of our brothers and sisters throughout the world.

Advent prayer
God of mercy,
move us to give generously
of all that we have,
so that you may multiply our gifts,
bringing comfort and warmth
to all people.
Amen.

Luke 10:21
I thank you Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to little children.

Today’s readings invite us to rediscover our childhood openness and wonder, in order to believe fully and deeply. It is only through opening our eyes and hearts to Jesus, that we can come to the Father.

Children have a special way of looking at the world. They have a clear sense of what is right and wrong. They feel deeply and most are not afraid to show these feelings, and to act upon them in joy and sadness, fear or anger.

Advent prayer
God of all,
give us a child-like spirit
of faith and wonder
at all that you have made.
Inspire us to work together
to create a world
where all your children may flourish.
Amen.

Advent reflections.
Peace be to your homes! May peace reign in your walls, in your palaces, peace!
PSALM 121:6-7

Home is the place to which we retreat at the end of the day, the place where we can put our feet up, eat something comforting, be surrounded by our loved ones and rest, ready to face a new day tomorrow.

Let us pray today for peace in every home, and work for peace however we can among our own family and friends, in our local community and throughout the world.

Advent prayer
Merciful God,
grant us peace in our lives,
in our homes and in our community
and lead us all to work together
for a better world,
free from conflict and violence.
Amen.

The first Sunday of Advent in the Catholic Church marks the beginning of the new liturgical year and the start of the season of Advent, which is a period of preparation for Christmas. It symbolizes Hope and focuses on looking forward to Christ's coming, both at Christmas and at the Second Coming. Today we light the first candle on an Advent wreath, known as the "Prophet's Candle".

Luke 21:34-36
‘Stay awake that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place.’
At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, ‘Watch yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a trap. For it will come upon all who dwell on the face of the whole earth. But stay awake at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.’

Luke 21:29-33
‘When you see these things taking place, you know that the kingdom of God is near.’
At that time: Jesus told his disciples a parable: ‘Look at the fig tree, and all the trees. As soon as they come out in leaf, you see for yourselves and know that the summer is already near. So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that the kingdom of God is near. Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all has taken place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.’

Luke 21:12-19
‘You will be hated by all for the sake of my name. But not a hair of your head will perish.’
At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, ‘They will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors for my name’s sake. This will be your opportunity to bear witness. Settle it, therefore, in your minds, not to meditate beforehand how to answer, for I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which none of your adversaries will be able to withstand or contradict. You will be delivered up even by parents and brothers and sisters, and relatives and friends, and some of you they will put to death. You will be hated by all for my name’s sake. But not a hair of your head will perish. By your endurance you will gain your lives.’

Today is the Feast Day of St Catherine of Alexandria (died c. early 4th century, Alexandria, Egypt) she was one of the most popular early Christian martyrs and one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers (a group of Roman Catholic saints venerated for their power of intercession). She is the patron saint of philosophers and scholars and is believed to help protect against sudden death.

According to legend, she was an extremely learned young girl of noble birth, possibly a princess. She protested the persecution of Christians under the Roman emperor Maxentius—whose wife and several soldiers she converted while imprisoned—and defeated the most eminent scholars summoned by Maxentius to oppose her. During her subsequent torture, she professed that she had consecrated her virginity to Jesus Christ, her spouse, and she was sentenced to death. The spiked wheel by which she was to be killed broke when she touched it (from which came the term Catherine wheel for such a torture device), and she was then beheaded.
After her death, angels allegedly took her body to Mount Sinai, where, according to legend, it was discovered.

Feast Day of St. Andrew Dung-Lac and Companions

St. Andrew was born in the year 1795 at Trian An Dun, in Vietnam. His baptism name was Andrew. He was ordained a priest on March 15, 1823. Since religious persecution was there in Vietnam, he changed his name to Lac to avoid arrest. He was parish priest in Ke-Dam and lived a very simple life and often fasted. When Fr. Ignatius was wanted by the Vietnam Government, Andrew offered himself for arrest when Ignatius was not there. He was arrested in 1835 under Emperor Minh-Mang and was released after money was paid by the congregation. Then again he was arrested and taken to Hanoi. He was beheaded on December 21, 1839. He was beatified by pope Leo-XIII on November 24, 1900 and canonized by Pope John Paul-II on June 19, 1988 along with 117 Vietnamese saints. The 117 saints consist of 96 Vietnamese, 11 Spanish Missionaries and 10 French Missionaries. More over this group 117 saints consists of 8 bishops, 50 priests and 59 lay catholic people.
