Advent Devotions and Events
Advent is observed in many Christian churches as a
time of expectant waiting and preparing to celebrate
the nativity of Jesus at Christmas. Here at SCL, you
are welcome to participate in these customs and devotions while
we wait:
Light the Advent Wreath:
If you would like to light our Advent
wreath yourself or with family or friends, please sign up for the
date and Mass time you’d like in the sign-up book in the vestibule.
Reflect:
Booklets with daily reflections on Advent are available
in the church vestibule at no charge.
Delight a Child in Need:
Please take a gift tag for a boy or girl from the angel tree that will be in the vestibule December 1-13
and return it attached to an unwrapped gift. Gifts may be toys
and/or clothing to be shared with The Women’s Centers, our
sharing parish St. Roman’s, and local families.
Seek Reconciliation:
On Tuesday, December 17, at 7:00pm at
OLPH, experience God’s forgiveness and mercy in a communal
reconciliation service with the option to confess individually.
Celebrate Simbang Gabi:
This is a Filipino tradition since 1565
when the first feast of “nativity” was celebrated there. Share
faith and culture with our Filipino parishioners at Mass in church
on Friday, December 20 at 7:00pm followed by a reception in
Marian Hall.
Observe La Posadas:
This Mexican tradition remembers the story
of Joseph and Mary looking for a place to stay. It begins in the
church after 6:00pm Mass on Sunday, December 22, processes
through the school and ends with festivities in Marian Hall.
