12/8/19: 2nd Sunday of Advent: 4 Things to do 4 Advent

In the Gospels for the 2nd and 3rd Sundays of Advent each year the focus is on the great Advent saint, John the Baptist, whose life's mission was to prepare the people of Israel to welcome their Messiah. This too is the purpose of Advent: Our preparation -- or to use the Advent imagery of Isaiah -- our making a highway into our hearts -- so the Lord may come and enter. Today we look at how the Mass prepares us to receive Jesus in the Eucharist and how that might translate into our daily spiritual practices during Advent.
