Advent Recollection for Benefactors
December 31, 2009
[com200912_benefactors] “Come Lord Do Not Delay” was the theme of the Advent Recollection for the benefactors held last November 28, 2009 at the Alberione Auditorium of the Daughters of St. Paul convent at Pasay City.
Fr. Rollin Flores, SSP, the speaker, explained the theme saying that “Come Lord Do Not Delay” is an implicit admission of our unfaithfulness to God and so we ask Him to come into our hearts and our life.
He said that, “the message of Christmas is to see our unworthiness of God’s faithfulness.”
He challenged the assembly to get involved especially in their respective parishes, to become Eucharistic people grounded on the Word and in the Eucharist, to become true members of the Body of Christ by being accountable for one another and minding what’s happening around us.
He also connected his talk to the the challenges posed to the priests and all the pastors leading their flocks during this year that is especially dedicated for priests.
