Advent Reflection given on Sunday evening, December 6, 2015, at the Christ the King Catholic CHurch, by Fr. Jacques Philippe, a priest of the Community of the Beatitudes,an international association of the faithful of Pontifical Right, founded in France in 1973. The theme of Fr. Philippe's meditation is Mary and Mercy. The thirst of every man, even if they don't know it, is for the coming of Jesus. Father says, "What's special about this Advent is the start of the Year of Mercy. I believe that it will be a time of great grace and many conversions. We need to believe it, desire it, that when we go through the Door of Mercy, we will be inundated with oceans of mercy. The most important door of mercy is Mary herself, through whom Jesus, who is Mercy itself, came into the world." (Fr. Jacques gave the talks in French. They were translated into English by Sr. Maria of the Trinity.)
