Advent Waiting for This Moment Life was always a matter of waiting for the right moment to act.
The opposite of talking isn’t listening.
The best things in life are often sitting for you at the exit ramp of your comfort zone.
Today we celebrate the 170th Anniversary of our congregation’s founding.
Waiting on God requires the willingness to bear uncertainty, to carry within oneself the unanswered question, lifting the heart to God about it whenever it intrudes upon one’s thoughts.
Patience is not just the ability to wait, it’s how we behave while we’re waiting.

It is now, at Advent, that I am given the chance to suspend all expectation…and instead to revel in the mystery.
Sr. Patricia Bruno, OP
While we cry ourselves to sleep, gratitude waits patiently to console and reassure us; there is a landscape larger than the one we can see.
