During this second week of Advent, we focus on preparing for the coming of the Lord. We hear of John the Baptist, the “voice of one crying out in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord”.
As we today prepare for the coming of Christmas by shopping for presents, baking cookies, writing cards, we should take time to reflect on the coming baby, the coming sacrifice. To prepare our hearts and minds for the coming of the Lord.
Go in Peace. Serve the Lord.
Thanks be to God!

In today’s First Reading and Gospel Lesson, we see two women, at Zarephath (1 Kings 17:8-16) and at the Temple treasury (Mark 12:38-44). Both are widows. Both are poor. Yet both have great faith and give all they have to God.
Compared to these two women, we all have so much. And yet, when all is said and done, do they have more? Only you can answer that question for yourself. Consider it well.
Go in Peace. Serve the Lord.
Thanks be to God!

Go in Peace. Serve the Lord.
