This Sunday the Church bids us, in the entrance antiphon, ‘Rejoice in the Lord always; again I say, rejoice!’ In this penitential season of advent, in which we are full of expectation for the coming of Our Lord, we are invited to lift our hearts with joy. The love of God, seen in Jesus’ nativity, desires to enter our hearts and permeate every aspect of our lives. Let us welcome him with renewed faith in joyful anticipation. Our Christmas Cards are available today in the church porch with the times of Masses and celebrations here at Christmas and New Year. Please take one.

As we celebrate Christmas 2025, the Jubilee Year reaches its culmination. Fittingly, the Holy Year both begins and ends with the feast of the Incarnation, reminding us that renewal, reconciliation and hope find their source in Christ. At Christmas, we return to the heart of our hope, ‘The Word became flesh and dwelt among us.’ God’s answer to human longing is not an idea or a programme, but a person - Emmanuel, God with us. Although this Christmas marks the 2025th anniversary of Christ’s birth, we do not mark a calculation, but a mystery: the Incarnation as the turning point of history. I pray that this Christmas may seal the graces of the Holy Year in our hearts and renew us with joy and hope in Christ, the centre of time and history. May God bless us all in this wonderful week ahead!

Today is the Second Sunday of Advent, but my diary makes me feel like its Christmas already! Although there are many lovely Christmas events, let’s make an effort to keep our prayers and focus at church on the meaning of the Advent journey: waiting, watching and preparing our hearts with the gift of hope. Today we meet John the Baptist: the apostle of hope who came to herald and announce the Advent of Christ. I had a wonderful day on Wednesday with two-thousand school children from across the diocese who joined the Catholic Children’s Society for our carol services. Thank you to everyone in the Bernadette Club for a lovely day on Thursday. May God bless us all in this coming week of Advent.
