SECOND COLLECTION NEXT SUNDAY: as usual is for the Christmas Flowers. Many thanks as ever to our flower arrangers who work hard to make our churches beautiful for the Christmas Festival. CHRISTMAS OFFERING: The Collection taken at all Masses on Christmas Day goes as custom to the Priests of the Parish. As the Parish is served by the Missionaries of St Francis de Sales, it also goes toward helping the English Province fund the missions of our Congregation in different parts of the world, in particular India, Africa, Brazil and the Philippines. There are envelopes available at the back of both churches for parishioners who wish to contribute but who will not be here on Christmas Day. Many thanks in advance for your generosity. ADVENT DEVOTIONS: In this holy season, where we are invited to watch and wait for the Lord who is to come, there is a possibility with meeting with the Lord in Eucharistic Adoration and the Mass. There will be three Masses at times other than the usual one of 10am: on Wednesdays at 6.30am in the morning; Thursdays at 6.30pm in the evening; and the Latin Mass on Fridays at 6pm. Adoration will be on Wednesdays from 7am to 10am; Thursdays from 7pm to 10pm. There will be a Day of Adoration this Friday 20th December from after the 10am Mass to 6pm. Please sign up for an hour so that there are at least two people in the church at any one time. There will also be Visiting Confessors: Father Peter Clarke will be at the Holy Ghost on Saturday 21st December from 3.30pm to 4.45pm. Father David O’Regan will be available between 12pm and 1pm on Friday 20th December and Father Jose will be available from between 4.30pm and 5.30pm. Father David will also be hearing Confessions at St. Michael’s in South Petherton on Saturday 21st December from 11:00am - 12:00 Noon. There is also a Penitential Service at SS Luke and Teresa, Wincanton on Monday 16 December at 7pm. As well as the usual Saturday times, and by request, parishioners are encouraged to go to the Sacrament of Reconciliation in preparation for Christmas. RORATE CAELI MASS: The 6.30am Mass on Wednesday will follow the tradition of being a Votive Mass of Our Lady in Advent. ‘Rorate Caeli’ comes from the words of the Entrance Antiphon ‘Drop down dew from above, you heavens, and let the clouds rain down the Just One; let the earth be opened and bring forth a Saviour” (Isaiah 45, 8). The Mass is held in candlelight. As the Mass progresses, so progressively it becomes light outside. And so it is symbolic as Advent helps us to prepare to welcome the Light of the World, Jesus our Saviour, who is brought to us by Our Lady.

  • Winchmore Hill United Reformed Church March, 2021
    Winchmore Hill United Reformed Church March, 2021 BUILD ON A STRONG FOUNDATION The theme for the World Day of Prayer being held on 5 March this year is “Build on a Strong Foundation”. The service this year has been put together by women from Vanuatu, a cluster of islands stretching for about 400 miles in the southwestern Pacific Ocean. (If you can find it on the globe you’ll be doing better than us!) Because of the covid situation in the UK, World Day of Prayer will be putting the service on their YouTube channel or elsewhere (for details have a look at their website www.wwdp.org.uk where service details will be posted). Can we encourage you, if you are able to, to try and join in with this day as it always, to us, seems to provide a link with other Christians all across the world. The words of the first song in the service on that day this year we find to be particularly appropriate, even though they were written with Vanuatu in mind:- It is time to get together As a nation and family Let’s forget our differences And let us work in unity What a joy it would be to see all the nations of the world working together for unity both as individual countries, but also with their neighbouring countries as well. But, Building a strong foundation is also something that we need to be looking to do as a church together. Building a strong foundation involves more than physical buildings, developing resources.

The Third Sunday of Advent (Gaudete Sunday) Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI offers a perfect“why!” . has for many years been the day when the children “The blessing of the “Bambinelli” [Baby Jesus figurines] of Rome bring the figurines of Baby Jesus from their as they are called in Rome, reminds us that the crib family cribs to St. Peter’s Square to be blessed by is a school of life where we can learn the secret of the Pope during the Angelus. The day is affectionately true joy. This does not consist in having many things known as “Bambinelli Sunday.” Instituted by St. but in feeling loved by the Lord, in giving oneself as Pope John Paul II during his Papacy, the tradition a gift for others and in loving one another. Let us look has continued and has grown in popularity across at the crib. Our Lady and St. Joseph do not seem to the universal Church. Children are invited to wrap be a very fortunate family; their first child was born in the blessed figurines in Christmas wrapping when the midst of great hardship; yet they are full of deep they return home, and to place them under the joy, because they love each other, they help each tree, to be opened as the first gift of Christmas; thus other and, especially, they are certain that God, who encouraging young children to make the connection made himself present in the little Jesus, is at work in between the gifts they receive on Christmas Day their story.

  • The History and Meaning of Advent What Is Advent?
    The History and Meaning of Advent What is Advent? Presented on November 26, 2017 The word ‘Advent’ is from the Latin ‘Adventus,’ which means ‘coming.’ Advent is the beginning of a new liturgical year (in the Western churches), and encompasses the span of time from the fourth Sunday before Christmas, until the Nativity of Our Lord is celebrated. The first Sunday of Advent is the Sunday nearest the feast of St. Andrew the Apostle (which is November 30th), and so it will always fall somewhere between November 27th at the earliest and December 3rd at the latest. The liturgical color for this season is purple (Usually a deep purple as opposed to the lighter, red-violet shade of purple associated with Lent). Like Lent, Advent is a preparatory season. It has significance because it is a season of looking forward and waiting for something greater; both for the annual celebration of the event of Christ’s birth, and for the time when Christ will come again. As noted in the New Catholic Encyclopedia, during Advent, the faithful are asked: • to prepare themselves worthily to celebrate the anniversary of the Lord’s coming into the world as the incarnate God of love, • thus to make their souls fitting abodes for the Redeemer coming in Holy Communion and through grace, and • thereby to make themselves ready for His final coming as judge, at death and at the end of the world. Origin and History of Advent The exact time when the season of Advent came to be celebrated is not precisely known.
