  • Third Sunday in Advent Year B

    Before you begin, you will need to choose a place - make a date, if you will, with the Lord. It is helpful to find a place that is set apart, free from distractions, comfortable, pleasant, and quiet. It is important to go to the same place'; a place that is used exclusively for this time of prayer, for the sake of developing a committed practice. In some cases, that might mean simply repositioning a chair, facing a picture of Our Lord or a Crucifix, or lighting a candle. The important thing we bring to this practice is our desire for God, and our faithfulness to the committed time.

    We recommend that you follow along using a Bible and have a prayer journal. To find the Gospel reading for the week you can visit USCCB.org
