From the Religious
Co-Ordinator
On December 8, we honor Mary, our Mother. The Immaculate Conception refers to the conception of Mary in the womb of her mother, St. Anne.
The dogma of the Immaculate Conception asserts that, "from the first moment of her conception, the Blessed Virgin Mary was, by the singular grace and privilege of Almighty God, and in view of the merits of Jesus Christ, Savior of Mankind, kept free from all stain of original sin."
During this Advent season, take some time to prepare and remember the
real meaning of Christmas.
The word ‘Advent’ comes from the Latin word 'adventus', meaning ‘coming’ or ‘arrival’, and indicating a season of waiting. Advent points not to one but three comings of Christ.
One coming is in the past, when Christ came two thousand years ago as a helpless Babe.
One coming is in the future, when Christ will return in glory.
One coming is in the present when Christ is here amongst us in word and sacrament, in ministry and community, in creation and redemption.
On the third Sunday of Advent, let us pray and reflect upon the Gospel using the
Sydney Catholic Archdiocese Advent Companion.
