Weekly reflection

UPDATE FROM BISHOP RICHARD

Dear brother and sisters in Christ,

 

This Sunday marks the beginning of the new Church’s Year – the First Sunday of Advent – and this year we will hear the Gospel of Luke on Sundays.

I invite you to reflect on the words of Jesus in the Gospel: “your redemption is drawing near.” Our redemption begins with the Angel’s message to Mary, telling her that she is to be the mother of Jesus, and in this season we now   prepare to celebrate the birth of Christ, Emmanuel, God-with-us. The Season of Advent is a time of    expectant hope in His coming – both at the end of time, and in our celebration of His birth at Christmas. The presence of Christ, the life of Christ, His death and resurrection – this is our hope and our life, and we rejoice at His  coming.

This Season of Advent is a time for us to progress in love and hope – with faith – these are the marks of the Christian. All three are gifts – gifts in which we rejoice and gifts that we are called to share with our brothers and sisters, that all might rejoice in the birth of the One Who became one of us, though free from sin, for our salvation.

May this Season of Advent be a time of grace and blessing for us all, that we may respond ever more deeply to the call the Lord has given to us, to be His people, His instruments,at the service of the Gospel for our brothers and sisters.


With every blessing,

Bishop Richard
