Act of Perfect Contrition in Preparation for Christmas with Bishop Brendan Leahy

LIve  at 11am Monday 21st December 2020. Please join.

Christmas Message from Bishop Brendan Leahy 

We pray that we will be people of faith who recognise God’s saving plan for us and are able  to respond with obedience.  

The third Sunday of Advent is also called Gaudete Sunday. Gaudete, a Latin word which means “rejoice,” is taken from the entrance antiphon for Sunday’s Mass. This theme is echoed in today’s second reading from the first Letter to the Thessalonians. It is a reminder that Advent is a season of joy because our salvation is already at hand.

Attached are the arrangements we have put in place for Christmas 2020.

The Virgin Mary is the “Way” that God Himself prepared in order to come into the world. Let us entrust to Her the salvation and peace awaited by all men and women of our time.

“Keep Christ at the Centre of Christmas”
