Here are timeless reflections for each day of Advent to help us prepare in mind and heart for the Coming of Our Lord Jesus. The Gospel is given for each day (in the case of Sundays, a choice has been made from the A, B and C cycles of readings), while short commentaries chosen from the writings of one of the Saints or Fathers connect us in our reflection directly to the Early Church, further aided by biographical notes on each writer and by concluding prayers, also from the Saints and Fathers to focus our thoughts more deeply. Pope Benedict XVI, when he writes about Advent, says that there are two main figures which dominate this liturgical time: John the Baptist and Mary. In a very special way, this book helps us join with them in awaiting the coming of the Messiah.
Examining the Missal's Contents - this downloadable resource written by Paul Turner points out what is in the Missal that was not in The Sacramentary, what will not be found in the Missal that had been in The Sacramentary, and the new location of some prayers. $6 provides unlimited use of this resource!
