Resource for the 1st Sunday in Advent

First Sunday in Advent - Year C

The major theme as we begin Advent is “waiting for Christ to return”. The gospel paints a frightening scene of strange signs in the sun and moon and of people scared to death.

The gospel suggests that each day of our life is to be lived as if Jesus might arrive at any minute.
