Advent is a time when we wait in hopeful anticipation, preparing ourselves for the birth of the Savior of the World, but also for His return. This Advent season, we have several ways you can prepare: attending our Bilingual Advent Retreat, joining us for the Gospel of Matthew Series led by Fr. Murray, going to confession and adoration, and of course, participating at Mass.

However, if we want to be missionary in spirit we must consider the importance of the three keys or principles:

Why do bad things happen to good people?
What's the purpose of life?
What's next?
