Welcome
Advent
The first season of the church year, beginning with the fourth Sunday before Christmas and continuing through the day before Christmas. The name is derived from a Latin word for "coming." The season is a time of preparation and expectation for the coming celebration of our Lord's nativity, and for the final coming of Christ "in power and glory."

Advent Confession and Evensong Begins Dec 3rd
A Message from Fr. Jason:
As we did during Lent, during Advent I'll be hearing confessions in the church from 5:30-6:30 on Tuesday evenings (December 3rd, 10th and 17th--but not the 24th), followed by Evensong from 6:30-7:00.
The Sacrament of Reconciliation (a.k.a. Confession) is always appropriate, and is always available by appointment, but it is especially suitable during the seasons of Lent and Advent. If you are not familiar with this short rite, you can find it in the Book of Common Prayer beginning on page 447.
I will hear confessions in the sanctuary (by the altar); if you come into the church and you find somebody is already with me, simply put in the earplugs provided and wait until it is your turn.
You may want to keep the earplugs in while I chant evening prayer, which we will do by the side altar.
A most blessed Advent to you.
--Fr. Jason
