End of Year Mass

The Foundation to Year 4 End of Year Mass was celebrated on Wednesday. Thanks again to all the parents that attended this last Mass for the year. The theme of the Mass was the first week of Advent as well as being a thanksgiving Mass for the year of learning.

Father Denis made a very good point in the homily. When Catholics pray during Advent and reflect on Christmas, it isn’t just about remembering that Jesus was born two thousand years ago. The focus should be on the loving gift of Jesus, that he is with us now. Jesus is with us now, in the Mass. He is with us now when we hear his words in scripture. He is with us now when we see His face in someone in need.
