Advent is a Season of preparation as we recall the coming of Christ at Christmas and await the coming of Christ at the end of time. The Sacrament of Reconciliation (or confession) is a great opportunity to prepare for the coming of the Lord. A special Advent Communal Reconciliation Service will be of-fered on Thursday, December 7 at 6:30pm, following the Vigil Mass for the Immaculate Conception. This evening will be marked with communal prayer, reflection, and six priests availa-ble to celebrate the sacrament. Please join us!
