Advent At Our Lady of the Mountains
Advent is here! Each Advent is a season where we await the coming of the Lord with joyful expectation, we remember His first coming, His Incarnation, and we anticipate His coming again in glory. Here are the opportunities being offered at OLM this Advent to enter into this season and grow closer to Jesus Christ:
• Adoration will take place on Tuesdays 8:30-9:30am, Wednesdays 4:15-5:15pm, and Fridays 9-10am.
• During the 5:30pm Wednesday Mass there will be a talk about the importance of prayer and recognizing the presence of Jesus in our lives.
• After the 5:30pm Wednesday Mass we will gather in the Church Hall for an opportunity to ask Fr. Josh any question on the Catholic faith. Then there will be time for Lectio Divina, studying the Word of God.
• Each Thursday at 9:30am we will meet in the Church Hall to study the Scripture readings for the following weekend.
• In addition to the normal times, Confession will also be available after each Weekday Mass, or you can call or email to make an appointment.
• A Rorate Mass, a candlelight Mass in honor of our Blessed Mother, will be celebrated at 6:30am on Saturday, December 10.
• The youth of our parish will act out the Christmas story in a Christmas Pageant after the 10:30 Mass on Sunday, December 18.
• Lessons and Carols will take place Thursday, December 22 at 5:30pm. This is a traditional gathering where we will sing Christmas hymns together and read the Bible passages recounting Jesus’s birth.
