I hope that each of you are having a Blessed Advent season.
I encourage your frequent use of the Sacrament of Confession. Currently our parish offers confessions Wednesday at 6pm, Saturday at 9am, and Sunday at 1:30pm. On Tuesday, December 10, we will also have our Parish Advent Penance Service which will give us a total of 9 priests to hear confessions.
On Saturday, December 14, we will hold a Rorate Caeli Mass at 6:30am. This is a Mass in the Extraordinary Form and is a Votive Mass for the Blessed Virgin Mary. It is taken from the first words of the Introit taken from Isiah 45:8, “Rorate Caeli” which in English means “Drop down dew, you Heavens.” This Mass is to offered by candlelight and thus we will not use any lights in the Church other then that of candles.
In Christ,
Fr. Dustin Collins
