Sunday, November 24 marks the end of the Catholic liturgical calendar. Next Sunday December 1 is the beginning of Advent.
The solemnity of Cristo Rey which means Christ the King is the end of the liturgical calendar. Then comes Advent season next Sunday which is observed in most Christian denominations as a time of waiting and preparations for Jesus Christ’s birth and the return of Christ at the second coming. Advent means ‘arrival’. It is a four-week season of remembering and celebrating the arrival of Jesus on earth.
Woke up early again and trimmed our Canna plants outside and swept the front and side of the house. There was a cold breeze blooming while I was sweeping the street. How lovely to greet the morning with the cold wind touching my cheeks.
I started reading Larry McMurtry’s Lonesome Dove the other night but I haven’t made a dent yet. It is a Western novel, think about cowboys herding cattle on a great trail-drive, the friendship bonded between these people. I simply love the story and it is my first time to read a McMurtry book. Based on the synopsis of the book, it won the 1986 Pulitzer Prize for fiction.
Good morning everyone.🏜🎉🎈
