#GROW
December 2 - 6, 2024
Holy Spirit Catholic School Mission
We are a Catholic community committed to developing educational opportunities in the context of Gospel values, where students' gifts and talents are celebrated and nurtured
through lifelong spiritual and personal experiences.
First Week of Advent
Today is the first Sunday of Advent, a time of preparation and waiting for the birth of baby Jesus. We also wait for Jesus Christ to come again, so we light the first Candle of our Advent wreath to symbolize the hope we have in anticipation of the coming Messiah. Today’s reading reminds us that we are not just waiting for the celebration of Jesus’ birth, but for the coming of the new world, when Jesus will come again in power and glory.
