3rd Sunday of Advent
Theme: In the gospel, John the Baptist tells the people to share what food, or clothing, or money they have. In the first reading we hear of a woman about to give birth. A dragon near by about to devour the child, both are saved. Our second reading tells us to rejoice and have no anxiety at all, but be filled with the peace of God. All these readings remind us that God, and also Mary our Mother, are always with us to help us and fill us with peace and joy. So let us rejoice!

Sunday PrayerIntercessionsComing before the Lord with our prayers and petitions, we offer our hopes for ourselves and for all the world.
That the church might guide the faithful to repentance and humility as we seek to prepare our hearts for Christ’s coming. We Pray … Lord, hear our prayer That our nation’s elected officials might seek to care for those who lack income and resources to live humanly. We pray … Lord, hear our prayer That those who are without home or country find shelter and asylum that will fill their lives with peace and rest. We pray … Lord, hear our prayer That we at St. Charles might find this Advent to be a time of preparation, repentance, and conversion. We pray … Lord, hear our prayer That in the spirit of Juan Diego we faithfully place ourselves in the loving care of our Mother, Our Lady of Guadalupe. We pray … Lord, hear our prayer Mary, Our Lady of Guadalupe, lived a life, throughout history, of giving, and loving her neighbor, let us ask her to help us live like she did. Let us pray the Hail Mary. Hail Mary full of grace, the Lord is with you. Blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen. O God, accept the prayers we offer and help us grow in confidence of your everlasting mercy. We pray this, through Mary our Mother, and through Christ our Lord. Amen.
