SUMMARY:Advent Penance Service
DESCRIPTION:Prepare the Way: Make Room for the King \n\n\n\nAdvent is a season of hope\, renewal\, and preparing our hearts to welcome Jesus Christ. What better way to make room for the King than through the healing grace of God’s mercy? \n\n\n\nJoin us at Saints Simon and Jude for our Advent Penance Service\, an opportunity to step away from the busyness of the season\, reflect on our lives\, and experience the peace and forgiveness found in the Sacrament of Reconciliation. \n\n\n\nJust as Mary opened her heart to God’s will\, we too are invited to surrender our burdens\, seek His mercy\, and allow His love to make all things new. \n\n\n\nNo matter how long it’s been since your last Confession\, you are welcome. God’s mercy is greater than our shortcomings\, and His arms are always open. \n\n\n\nThis Advent\, prepare not just your home for Christmas\, but your heart for Christ. \n\n\n\nCome as you are. Be renewed by His mercy. Make room for the King.
