OCIA  Director Matt Gray, reflects on the readings for the Fourth Sunday of Advent.

OCIA, formerly RCIA, is the Order of Christian Initiation for Adults. The name change reflects the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops desire to return to the original Latin texts and that the process is a life-long journey and not a one-time event.

What are we doing with the gift of choice that God has given us?

We are called to always wait patiently and with endurance for God to meet our desires and work his purposes.

Whatever unfolds, God always has our back, always bringing us to life.

God who is beyond our comprehension became something we can grasp to know how much we are loved.

May we be completely open and ready to receive what the Lord gives us.

Can you continue to share the Good News all year long by being a joyful giver?

Be the face of God for others and like Christ who is the Light itself.

Bringing people to God only works when you become part of their life.
