Question:Is Advent just about preparing for the coming
of Christ at Christmas?
Answer:Short answer, no. I will let a famous preacher
from ‗back in the day‘ give a thorough explanation:
This, then, is the mystery of Advent. Let us now listen
to the explanation of this threefold visit of Christ, given
to us by Peter of Blois, in his third Sermon de Adventu:
‗There are three comings of our Lord; the first in the
flesh, the second in the soul, the third at the judgment.
The first was at midnight, according to those words of
the Gospel: At midnight there was a cry made, Lo the
Bridegroom cometh! But this first coming is long since
past, for Christ has been seen on the earth and has con-
versed among men. We are now in the second coming,
provided only we are such as that He may thus come to
us; for He has said that if we love him, He will come
unto us and will take up His abode with us. So that this
second coming is full of uncertainty to us; for who, save
the Spirit of God, knows them that are of God? They
that are raised out of themselves by the desire of heav-
enly things, know indeed when He comes; but whence
He cometh, or whither He goeth, they know not. As for
the third coming, it is most certain that it will be, most
uncertain when it will be; for nothing is more sure than
death, and nothing less sure than the hour of death.
When they shall say, peace and security, says the apos-
tle, then shall sudden destruction come upon them, as
the pains upon her that is with child, and they shall not
escape. So that the first coming was humble and hidden,
the second is mysterious and full of love, the third will
be majestic and terrible. In His first coming, Christ was
judged by men unjustly; in His second, He renders us
just by His grace; in His third, He will judge all things
with justice. In His first, a lamb; in His last, a lion; in
the one between the two, the tenderest of friends.‘ [De
Adventu, Sermon III.]

Mission Statement Our Lady of Perpetual Help Parish, in union with the Roman Catholic Church, chooses to be a evangelizing people. We desire that our Faith radiate the love of Jesus by the way we think, speak, and act. We strive to share our enthusiasm for the Gospel by becoming a welcoming, forgiving, and reconciling Community. We strive to live the Gospel values that transform our families, our neighborhoods and our whole society.
1st SUNDAY OF ADVENT
“Therefore, stay awake! For you do not know on which day your
Lord will come.” Jesus doesn‘t tell us when he will come again; but
he does tell us all we need to know. First, he leaves no doubt in our
minds that he will in fact return--this isn‘t a question we have to
debate. And secondly, he tells us what we need to do to be ready:
stay awake! As long as we don‘t doze off while we‘re waiting, eve-
rything will be all right.
So our task is a relatively simple one. We are called to be on the
lookout. We are supposed to be ready for the Lord when he ap-
pears. This is a straightforward instruction to be sure. But it does
contain an inherent challenge: it‘s often much easier to hit the
snooze button than to get up and at ‘em. It‘s our task, however, to
make sure we don‘t give in to the temptation to fall back asleep.
This is what the season of Advent helps us to do. It‘s like the
Church‘s alarm clock, ringing with persistence in our ears: Wake
up! Throw off the covers of apathy and distraction! Jesus is com-
ing! Get up and get your house in order before he arrives!
What exactly this means will be different for all of us--the particu-
lar behaviors we need to change, the specific virtues we need to
develop--all of this is unique to each individual. But our common
goal is the same--to clean house in our hearts and make ourselves
ready to welcome the Lord. Yes, his return at the end of time will
be a momentous event, but even if we never experience it during
our lifetime, Jesus still wants to come to us here and now, to dwell
in our hearts through the presence of his Spirit. This Advent, let‘s
