First Sunday of Advent
Sunday, November 29, 2020
The Hebrew Bible lesson presents a contrite plea to God for merciful justice. The prophet recalls earlier times when the Lord’s presence made the very mountains quake. Now the people have sinned grievously and are suffering for their wrongs. They can only pray that the Lord will remember them as God’s children, God’s creatures, and temper divine anger.
A lament and a plea to the Lord, the shepherd of Israel, that God will turn away divine anger and restore the people.
Second Reading
In this reading Paul greets the new disciples in Corinth, telling them of his gratitude to God on their behalf and offering comfort and assurance. Because they are sanctified in Christ, these converts, together with those everywhere who call upon Jesus, have a vocation as saints. They are rich in spiritual gifts. Trusting in a faithful God, they wait for the great revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ.
In this gospel lesson Jesus presents his disciples with a vision of the end of human history and repeatedly urges them to be on watch. The universe itself will reflect this transformation as the Son of Man comes. That time is near, but no one knows it exactly. Disciples must live expectantly and be on the alert for their Lord’s coming.

Remember: you can always go to our St. Hugh's Playlists for music played by Ed or collected by me. ~Fr. Dan

As we continue "Safer At Home," perhaps visiting a church you might otherwise never visit appeals to you. Hear what the Spirit is saying to God's people; make a "spiritual communion" with those gathered and celebrating with you online.

Collect for the First Sunday of Advent
Almighty God, give us grace to cast away the works of darkness, and put on the armor of light, now in the time of this mortal life in which your Son Jesus Christ came to visit us in great humility; that in the last day, when he shall come again in his glorious majesty to judge both the living and the dead, we may rise to the life immortal; through him who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. ~BCP 211
