The message of Advent is an invitation and it also a challenge to us. We are called to be looking forward, to be ready, to be prepared and we are asked to wait in joyful hope.

God’s Kingdom hangs with Jesus on his Cross and rises with him in his Resurrection.

Christ is King of both. Christ on his Cross is just as much a King, as Christ coming in glory from the tomb.

“We are in the fight of our lives, and we are losing.  
We are on a highway to climate hell with our foot still on the accelerator.”

When Jesus said, “I no longer call you servants, I call you friends…” he meant it.

And when he said, that “I am with you always, to the end of time.” He meant that too. We are truly never alone, even when we don’t see it.

  “The Church is not a tollhouse; it is the house of the Father, where there is a place for everyone, with all their problems.” Pope Francis

Event to showcase our video and our art work. Also we will have details about how we are going to make Garryowen a sustainable energy community

Might today’s Gospel be an invitation to ‘unclutter’ our image of God? Beneath the clutter, imagine the beauty and simplicity we might find.
