^{Sermon From
4th Sunday of Advent 2013
Father Violette✟}
We have weeks to prepare us for the major feasts of the Church to wake us up and ensure we are ready.  From all eternity God has a special grace for each one of us – the grace of Christmas.  We have ample time to prepare so that we may be drawn directly to heaven when God calls us.  Although St. John the Baptist’s life was short, he accomplished all that God wanted in the time allotted to him.  We pray that God may do the same with our lives at this Mass.
