Sunday, December 18, 2022 - The Fourth Sunday in Advent

DECEMBER 18, 2022 FOCUS FOR TODAY’S SERVICE God will come to save his people, just as he promised. He saves them through the virgin born Son of David who is also the Son of God, Emmanuel. The Church prays for God to come in power to take away the burden of our sins. Since the Garden, there has been only one promised plan to do that: God would take on flesh and blood. Emmanuel comes—God in the flesh—exactly as promised to save his people. The use of the Great O Antiphons on this Sunday highlights God’s promises kept by invoking an Old Testament title for Christ and anticipating the promise kept by the Christ-child.
