Happy ADVENT Everyone!

Just spent a 'day off' with the parish, thinking about Advent. We looked at reading, sang hymns, discussed ideas, and made each other laugh and smile.
In the end, I have only one prayer - may we live out what we talked about. One quote I brought home:
If you see someone without a smile on their face, give them one of yours, you never know how far it will go.
I was reminded of St John of God, (or was it John of the Cross) who said: If you want love, put love and then you'll find love.
More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of (Alfred, Lord Tennyson, Morte D'Arthur)
