COLLECT SERIES
The Mass: Collect Series Icon
The Collect for the 3rd Sunday of Advent Year A reads as follows:
O God who sees 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.
In making this prayer tangible for my life during the week, the following
reflections questions emerged:
1. How will I faithfully await
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?
Today is also known as Gaudate Sunday- which means rejoicing Sunday. Click on the link to read more about it.
