COLLECT

The Collect for the 3rd Sunday of Advent Year A reads as follows:


O God who see how your people
faithfully await for the feast of the Lord's Nativity
enable us we pray to attain the joys of so great a salvation
and to celebrate them always
with solemn worship and glad rejoicing.
We make this prayer through our Lord Jesus Christ
who lives and reigns with Him and the Holy Spirit,
one God for ever and ever.

ADVENT WREATH.

REFLECTION QUESTIONS

In making this prayer tangible for my life during the week, the following reflections questions emerged:

1. How will I faithfully wait for the Lord's Nativity?
2. What are the joys of so great a salvation- what does this mean to me?
3.How do I celebrate these joys always?
4. What does solemn worship mean to me?
5 What might glad rejoicing be like to me?
6. What will I do this week to maintain a spirit of waiting with joyful expectation?
