The first Sunday of Advent is the first day of the New Liturgical Year for the Catholic Church and on this occasion, in the Gospel (Mc 13, 33-37), Jesus encourages the faithful to “Watch and be prepared, because they do not know “When will the time come?”
Likewise, all the biblical readings of this first week and the corresponding preaching should be an invitation to be vigilant, attentive, to be ready for when the Lord arrives. Therefore, it is important that every Catholic family make a joint resolution that allows them to advance on the path to Christmas.
