Journey Through Advent Video Series - Second Sunday of Advent
The video series “Journey through Advent” – Second Sunday of Advent is now available on the CCCB website in English and French. This week’s reflection contemplates the theme of consolation and how we can “prepare the way” in our own lives. The video series offers short reflections on the Sunday Gospel readings throughout this joyful liturgical season and is available each Monday in advance of the upcoming Sunday celebration.
About the Series
The initiative was developed by the CCCB as a way, through the modern method of video messaging, to offer a resource that enriches faith formation during a time of joyful anticipation for the coming of the Lord and Saviour into the world. The videos serve as an introduction to the liturgical Season and present reflections on the Gospel readings for each Sunday in Advent. The Most Reverend Douglas Crosby, O.M.I., Bishop of Hamilton and the Most Reverend Pierre Goudreault, Bishop of Saint-Anne-de-la-Pocatière, provide spiritual and pastoral guidance on the readings that illustrate the true meaning of Christmas.

Prayer to St. Simon & St. Jude
You who were chosen by Jesus to be follower, disciple, apostle and martyr, we implore you to intercede for us the Parish Family that bears your name. Teach us to live in the friendship of Jesus each day of our lives.
St. Simon, grant us the zeal that burned in your heart for the renewal of the earth.
St. Jude, you who patron those who most need inextinguishable hope, teach us never to give up in our following of the Lord.
May you welcome us home to the eternal Kingdom where we desire to live with the Father, Son and Spirit,
forever and ever. Amen
