Advent has a twofold character, for it is a time of preparation for the Solemnities of Christmas, in which the First Coming of the Son of God to humanity is remembered, and likewise a time when, by remembrance of this, minds and hearts are led to look forward to Christ’s Second Coming at the end of time. For these two reasons, Advent is a period of devout and expectant delight. ADVIENTO (MISAL ROMANO (NORMAS UNIVERSALES DEL AÑO LITÚRGICO) 39. El Adviento tiene un carácter doble, es un tiempo de preparación para las Solemnidades de Navidad, en las cuales se recuerda la Primera Venida del Hijo de Dios a la humanidad, y también es un tiempo en el cual, al recordar esto, las mentes y los corazones son dirigidos hacia la Segunda Venida de Cristo al final del tiempo. Por estas dos razones, Adviento es un período de espera devota y alegre. PHILOSOPHY STATEMENT “CHRISTIAN, RECOGNIZE YOUR DIGNITY…”– POPE ST.

November 27, 2016 Posted next week MEMORARE REMEMBER, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly to thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother; to thee do I come; before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen. PRAYER TO SAINT MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do Thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host by the Divine Power of God—cast into hell, satan and all the evil spirits, who roam throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen. ACORDAOS Acordaos, oh piadosísima Virgen María!, que jamás se ha oído decir que ninguno de los que haya acudido a Vos, implorado vuestra asistencia y reclamado vuestro socorro, haya sido abandonado de Vos. Animado con esta confianza, a Vos también acudo, oh Virgen, Madre de la vírgenes, y aunque gimiendo bajo el peso de mis pecados me atrevo a comparecer ante Vuestra presencia Soberana. No desechéis oh purísima Madre de Dios mis humildes súplicas, antes bien, escuchadlas favorablemente. Así sea. ORACION A SAN MIGUEL ARCANGEL San Miguel Arcángel, defiéndenos en la batalla; sé nuestro amparo contra la perversidad y asechanzas del demonio. Reprímale Dios, pedimos suplicantes, y tú, Príncipe de la Milicia Celestial, arroja al infierno con el divino poder a Satanás y a los demás espíritus malignos que andan dispersos por el mundo para la perdición de las almas. Amén. EVENT CALENDAR BIBLE STUDIES Advent Bible Study: Fr. Timothy will be offering a Bible Study during the Advent Season in preparation for Christmas.
