The word Advent means “coming.” In Advent, we recognize that Jesus came to us 2,000
years ago. Also in Advent, we recognize that He will come again, either at the end of our
own life or at His second coming when the final judgment will take place. We must always
keep in mind the third coming of Jesus: in our everyday life, in the poor and the lonely, in
the Eucharist, and in the Word of God.

In the next 10 years, the number of priests in East River
South Dakota will decline from
92 to 55.
Vocations to the Priesthood do
not just magically happen. They
grow from seeds planted in the
minds of good men by their
family, friends and parish.
Plant the seed of hope and help
us build God’s family!

I offer the following suggestions to help you get ready for Jesus’ coming in your life:
 Make a big deal out of daily Mass. Do your best to attend daily Mass at least once a
week. Did you know that if you attend daily Mass at least once a week, your IQ will
increase at least 100 points? Just kidding, only trying to see if you really read the
bulletin.
 Read and pray the daily Mass readings. There is a very intentional plan on how the
readings are presented as they prepare us to recognize His coming.
 Pray for those who are not attending church and invite them to come to Mass with
you. Most people who return to the practice of their Catholic faith only do so because
someone invited them.
 Pray these readings with someone else in your family or a friend. Something happens
when we reflect and share the Word of God with others.
 Pray the Rosary. Pray it alone, as a family or with a friend. The mysteries are all
about the life and love of Jesus. Join a Rosary Club. To find out more about Rosary
Clubs, please call the Parish Office.
 Go to Confession. Nothing is better for the soul than to get cleaned up as you prepare to meet Jesus.
 Don't be so busy this Advent season. One of the primary obstacles to holiness
is busyness.
Internet Resources for your family for Advent: One of the great things about the internet is that there is so much information available for our use. If you want to find some
Advent activities for you and/or your family search the internet. Search the internet for
the following topics: Catholic Culture Advent activities; 10 meaningful Advent Activities for
Catholic Families; Christmas Advent Calendar EWTN.co.
A Reflection for your week….
Every morning when we get up, let us pray, “Lord, show me someone today with whom I may
share your love, mercy and forgiveness.” Mother Teresa of Calcutta once said, "Whatever
you do in your family, for your children, for your husband, for your wife, you do for Jesus." Every night when we go to bed, let us ask ourselves, “Where have I found Christ today?” The answer will be God’s Advent gift to us that day. By being alert and watchful we will
receive an extra gift: Christ himself. Let us remember the saying of St. Thomas Aquinas: "Without God, I can't. Without me, He won't."
