Fourth Sunday of Advent

FOCAL POINT:

“The first rule was written during the Lenten season of 1842 and became the basis for community life and personal sanctification.” (Historical Preface)

Deceased:

Fr. Stanislaus Siatka, 1933, Chicago, USA

1. For our deceased members and benefactors, and for the one who will die first among us.
2. For our local superior.
3. For peace in our world.

FURTHER REFLECTION:

“The sacrament of marriage is not a social convention, an empty ritual or merely the outward sign of a commitment. The sacrament is a gift given for the sanctification and salvation of the spouses.” (Amoris Laetitia, 72)
