  • PRAYER IN ADVENT. O God, who by Thy gracious advent hast brought joy into this world, grant us, we beseech Thee, Thy grace to prepare ourselves by sincere penance for its celebration and for the Last Judgment. Amen.

    Have a Blessed Advent!!
    :pray:
    Surge, Domine, et dissipentur inimici, et eos qui oderunt te, a facie tua!  
    St Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle!

  • We hung up our "Jesse Family Tree" tags on our "Advent" tree last night. It is a nice reminder that it is Advent whenever we walk through the room.  😇

    Sadly some of our Advent Calendar Tag readings were missing...  So, we might have to put that away until next year or at least until we figure out which are missing and replace them.  😅

  • I heard that you can read a chapter of St Luke every day. 
    This is what I did along with a old-fashioned Advent Calendar when I was still teaching.  ITT had 24 little doors or windows to open, each numbered, so the children would take turns finding the door of the day and reading it.  The result was that the class would have Luke, chapter two memorized by the last day of school before Christmas.  
    For myself, I’ve hung the calendar on the wall and like to light a blessed candle as I read and recite it from memory.  
    Also for safety reasons, I extinguish the flame when I complete my evening prayers.  Having two large dogs and a cat in a one room cabin isn’t wise.

    Love this!  We have little boys so we extinguish candles after prayers as well unless they are small ones on the mantel shelf.  😅

  • What method of fasting is everyone doing ?

    I started Sunday, even though Sundays are exempt. One full meal per day plus a collation of 8 oz food as a second meal. No meat on Wednesdays or Fridays. 

    Gonna take a lot of diligence but I'll make it. I'll just make sure what I do eat is nutrient dense.
