First Sunday of Advent

While we do not have a catechetical session this Sunday, here are the readings for November 29, 2009, the First Sunday of Advent (cycle C).

Jeremiah 33: 14-16
Psalm 25: 4-5, 8-10, 14
1 Thessalonians 3: 12- 4:2
Luke 21: 25-28, 34-36

Thinking of a time when you've had to wait for something important (your wedding, birth of a child, start of a new job, medical results) ....

• What were your feelings at that time? 
• Did you seek or find support from others and/or your faith? 
• If you did, where did you find calm in the midst of the anticipation?
