Advent Reconciliation Service

Tomorrow Monday 9th at 7.30 we will offer an opportunity for the sacrament of reconciliation. After a brief scriptural reflection there will be 5 priests for you to choose from. The emphasis of Advent is not one of self-denial. It is rather a time for thought. When December 25th comes we concentrate on God’s gift. You could perhaps think of the postman coming to deliver your presents. You need to be at home to receive them. The opportunity is for you to tease out with the priest’s help what exactly needs to change in you. We are all failing to take in and receive the benefit of God’s grace by the obstacles we are regularly putting in their path. That is what we need to talk about on Monday so that God can do what he wants in you on Christmas day.
