Wow we have made it to the last Sunday of Advent. All four candles are lit and we are filled with Peace. A beautiful day for today Mary goes to see her cousin Elizabeth. Two pregnant women who are going to give birth to two important men (one is John the Baptist and the other is Jesus). What a beautiful message we had on Friday with the roles of women and today (Sunday) here we have two pregnant women Mary and Elizabeth their children’s future will change everything. The role Mary plays the role we all play. Deacon Fausto says, “Dare to believe, what might dare and faith show us about Mary and Elizabeth, God chooses, and daring faith.” Deacon Fausto always hits the right message we need to hear every Sunday. “Dare to believe,” he speaks of not the date that as children we play where we know it’s wrong and we still do it. This is a dare like Mary and Elizabeth. The journey Mary went on to go visit her cousin this was not an easy journey but she did it. What kind of daring moments do we have on our life?
As Fr. Paul says, “How does Mary come to us?” Remember she came to Juan Diego.
