Advent Journey, Week 2: Healing and Repentance

Week Two: Healing and Repentance 
The readings for this second week of Advent focus on Christ’s healing ministry. Not only do we witness Christ’s many miracles, but we also get to see the prophecies of Isaiah that foretold Christ’s work. Christ's ministry is twofold: he heals those who are physically ill and he forgives sins. Not all of us are physically ill, but we all need Christ's forgiveness. Acknowledging that we need to be healed is admitting that we cannot heal ourselves. Take time this week to go to Confession. It is the best way to seek Christ's healing and forgiveness. Once we are healed we can then invite others to repentance as missionary disciples.   

The Sacrament of Penance (Confession) is available every week at the following times:  
- Tuesdays, 7:15am Sacred Heart (before 8am Mass)
- Wednesdays, 6:15pm St. Joseph (before 7pm Mass)
- Saturdays, 9:00am St. Joseph
- Saturdays, 3:00 - 4:00pm St. Peter
