Advent Service Project

During the Season of Advent we are focusing on the coming of Jesus Christ into the world 2000 years ago, into our life at Mass, and the coming at the end of time. This Sunday’s readings focus on Preparing the way of the Lord. "A voice of one crying out in the desert: 'Prepare the way of the Lord, make straight his paths.'" ~John 1:1-8. How do we prepare for the Lord in our life? One way is pray! I was just watching a short YouTube clip from Chris Stefanick on prayer. Watch it! Another way of preparing our heart is through community and service! This coming Wednesday, December 10 is an early out! I am going to be taking a group of high school students to Pasco to help with some yard work! In order to get in on this opportunity I need everyone how is going to fill out THIS FORM and bring it on Wednesday.  We will be leaving from the PAC at noon and will be done by 4pm. This is a great opportunity to serve others and have a great time with others. Remember you need at least 5 hours of service in the community and 30 hours total in order to be Confirmed.
