The Grace We Ask Heaven on the Third Sunday of Advent

The Grace We Ask Heaven on the Third Sunday of Advent On the first Sunday of Advent, we request the grace to be Resolute. To be committed to run to Jesus upon His Coming with righteous deeds in hand. On the second Sunday of Advent we asked for the grace to remove those obstacles . . . those things . . . that would prevent us from moving forward toward Christ. Furthermore, on this third Sunday of Advent we also ask for a grace from Heaven. On this Sunday we ask for the grace to obtain the Joy of the great Salvation that God has promised us. We ask heaven not merely to be forgiven and not merely to be saved. We ask to be able to embrace the joy of what Heaven has given us! To embrace the Joy that the nearness of Christ brings! Why is this so important? Hear more within the Homily. St. John the Baptist Sends His Disciples To Jesus In the Gospel we hear that St. John the Baptist, in his days in prison, sent his disciples to Jesus to ask if He is the One we look for or is there another? John knew Jesus was the Savior. Why did he send his disciples to Jesus then with that question? What is his message to us during this Advent season? Listen to the Homily.
