The First Week of Advent - Hope




Heavenly Father, As we enter this season of Advent, we open our hearts to the light of Your hope. In this first week, renew in us a joyful anticipation of the coming of Your Son, Jesus Christ. Help us to trust in Your promises, to wait with patience, and to be filled with a hope that does not fade. May Your grace strengthen us to walk in faith, knowing that in Christ, all things are made new. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

  • Sacrament of Reconciliation

This is one of the privileges we have as a Catholic school to provide our students with opportunities to practice their faith through the Sacraments.

  • Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception

    The Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception on Thursday, December 8th is a Holy Day of Obligation and students will be attending the 8:00 a.m. Therefore, Mass Uniform is required on Thursday for all students. Additional Masses for the faithful will be held at 5:30 p.m. (Wednesday Vigil Mass), 12:15 p.m., and 6:30 p.m.

  • The Forever Grateful Project

    Once again, Blessed Sacrament Catholic School families are invited to participate in our Advent service project - The Forever Grateful Project - benefiting the Sisters of the Incarnate Word and Blessed Sacrament in Victoria, Texas. Those interested in "adopting" an IWSB Sister are asked to visit The Forever Grateful Project page with the listing of sisters and their Christmas wish lists. All gifts are asked to be brought to the School Office by Friday, December 16, 2022.

  • Glow 'n Grow

    Due to our Mass on Thursday, Glow 'n Grow sessions will not take place this week.

  • Our Lady of Guadalupe

    Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church will be hosting a Mass in Honor of Our Lady of Guadalupe on Sunday, December 11, 2022, at 7:00 p.m. A reception will follow in the Parish Banquet Hall. All members of our faith community are invited, however, this Mass does not count towards the Sunday obligation for the Third Sunday of Advent.

  • Christmas Shop

    As before, we will provide students an opportunity to shop for small gifts for their parents, grandparents, and loved ones in our Christmas Shop during the week of December 12-16, 2022. More information will be sent home with students this week!
