ADVENT has begun, and during this season we prepare for the arrival of Our Lord Jesus Christ in three ways: (1) We pray for his return in glory at the end of time by prayerful waiting and watching. This leads to the second way he comes to us this season (2) in our brothers and sisters, especially the poor and the marginalized. (3) Finally, as we draw to the end of Advent we will focus our attention on preparing to celebrate his birth at Christmas, recalling the humility with which the King of the Universe entered into human history to save us from the slavery of sin and death.
Come join us on Mondays for the Don Bosco After-School Program! Here, middle school youth (grades 6–8) are invited to discover the joy that comes from games, growing in friendship, and living our Catholic faith. Inspired by St. John Bosco’s love for young people, this program offers a safe and welcoming space to laugh, learn, and walk with Christ together.
