This Sunday we begin the season of Advent, a period of waiting for the birth of Christ. It is the season of new beginnings: the start of the new liturgical year, Year C, the year of the Gospel of Luke; the birth of Jesus; the beginning of summer. It is also a time for reflection about the coming of Jesus into our lives through grace and the sacraments, and a time to keep in mind that He will come again.

The theme for Advent this year is Pilgrims of Hope, which calls us to maintain and profess hope and trust in times of great challenge. We are called to be pilgrims, travelers on a journey of faith and hope, with the purpose of becoming closer to God. 🙏

A poem by Padre Jim Cosgrove. Ex Afghanistan and champion for those who need his help, one of 10 army chaplains based at Enoggera’s Gallipoli Barracks in Brisbane.

ANZAC poem ... ©Padre Jim Cosgrove.

Anzac Day – A nation’s pride,
Remembering our sons who died
Acknowledging their sacrifice
that helped to pay our freedom’s price
Our Nations’ history tells the tale
of those whose courage didn’t fail
Who gave their lives for you and me
To free our world from tyranny.

Anzac Day, remembered sorrows,
The ones who gave us their tomorrows
Who fell with faces to the foe
to buy the peace their children know
In troubled times they fought the wars
and gave their lives for freedom’s cause.
They fought until the job was done
The only way that peace is won.

Anzac Day, the Anzac Spirit
A minute’s silence – listen – hear it
Whispered words from those who gave
their lives, and now rest in the grave.
Their softest sigh within the silence
“Live the Peace – and shun the violence”
Let not our lives be lost in vain
Think twice before you war again.

Anzac Day - Lest We Forget
The fighting isn't finished yet
Our Nation's sons and daughters still
With resolute determined skill
Take up the fight, take up the cause
Till one day there's an end to wars
God bless our troops with strength we pray
On this and every Anzac Day.

Let us pray.

Let us pray.

As we saw in Sydney, five women and a man were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time when they lost their lives at a shopping mall. When dealing with such tragedies, Christians and people of other faiths seek solace in praying. Through prayer, we try to find answers to the ‘incomprehensible....
