2nd Sunday of Advent (12/8): 
Isaiah 11:1-10: "The wolf shall live with the lamb..."
In what places do the wolf and lamb lie together in peace? Where do we see that peace in our relationships, neighborhoods, or world? How do we live this peace in our lives and our world?
Musical Offering: Bel Canto, a women’s choral ensemble, will present special selections.

 

3rd Sunday of Advent (12/15): 
Isaiah 35:1-10: "The desert shall rejoice and blossom." 
How do we sing the Good News in our day and age? 
Musical Offering: Christmas Cantata, “A Celebration of Carols,” by Joseph M. Martin, will be presented by the Faith Des Peres Choir.

 

4th Sunday of Advent (12/22): 
Isaiah 7:10-16, Matthew 1:18-25: "The Lord himself will give you a sign..."  
What are the signs and promises of the Incarnation today? How do we resist God's presence breaking into our world as Joseph tried to do? How do we know that Jesus is with us?
Musical Offering: A Fifth Above, a woodwind quintet, will play familiar Christmas carols.
