“The beginning of Advent invites us into a season of hopeful waiting, calling us to prepare our hearts for the coming of Christ and to embrace the light that breaks into our world with His birth.” – Bishop da Cunha. In this week’s Bishop’s blog, Fr. Thomas Washburn, Dean of the Cape & Islands, offers a reflection on the first Sunday of Advent and the start of a new Liturgical year for the Church.
