Friends, 

Do you realize that the Sunday before Thanksgiving is the Feast of Christ the King. That means the Sunday after Thanksgiving is the First Sunday of Advent and our preparation for the arrival of the Christ Child begins! 

We will also again supply the "Little Blue Books" for anyone who wants one. Watch for them to be put out in the narthex toward the end of the month. Easy to carry with you, the Little Blue Books provide a beautiful scriptural way to prepare your heart for Christmas. Be sure to pick one up. 

Dynamic Catholic is offering to send a daily reflection to your e-mailbox. Sign up here: https://www.dynamiccatholic.com/advent/best-advent-ever.html

Don't forget, you have a free subscription to FORMED, where an abundance of incredible audio and video material awaits you. FORMED also offers a daily reflection that will be delivered to your email address. Discover the wide variety of Catholic material available to you free on FORMED.ORG

Finally, we are encouraging parishioners to share a reflection on one of the daily readings during this special time. You can see how to participate with Advent Gospel Reflections below this message. 

Stay well. 

Peace.
