Advent Family Prayer
God of Love,
Your son, Jesus, is your greatest gift to us.
He is a sign of your love.
Help us walk in that love during the weeks of Advent,
As we wait and prepare for his coming.
We pray in the name of Jesus, our Savior.
Amen.
Advent Mass
Throughout the four weeks of Advent, there is a focus on preparing for the birth of Christ. The word
“Advent” itself means, “Jesus is coming”.

Scotland School. Come and celebrate mass and listen to our school choir as they share with us their
music to enhance our journey to Christmas.
