[Sundaycommunity] Advent Planners update from Maria di Paolo

[Elizabeth Whelan]

Hi Folks,

I now have volunteers for the 1st Sunday (27 November) and 2nd Sunday (4 December) of Advent so the following dates are still free: 11 December (3rd) and 18 December (4th).  We need one or two people for each of these masses.  All Advent masses will be on Zoom.  Please reply directly to me at mfdipaolo at bell.net <mailto:mfdipaolo at bell.net>.  Note that I am not on the Sunday Community email list so if you respond using “reply” I will not get your email and everyone else will!

Here is a link to the liturgical calendar for 2022/23 — Year A: https://www.cccb.ca/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/2022-2023.pdf <https://www.cccb.ca/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/2022-2023.pdf> for the readings.

The duties of liturgy planners for Advent are the same as those for our regular Sunday virtual masses except that we are also asking you to ask the celebrant to light the appropriate Advent candles on their Advent Wreath at the start of mass.

	• Call the priest to confirm Sunday’s liturgy and ask them to light the Advent Candle(s) at the start of the mass at their own location.
	• Prepare or find a Reflection and send it to the People Progress reporter by Thursday. Please notify the People Progress reporter early in the week if you cannot do a Reflection.
	• Line up readers for the first and second readings and check with Brian Halferty regarding the psalm

On the Sunday of the virtual mass:

	• Greet the group
	• Give a brief introduction to the liturgy
	• Be prepared to do a reading (if one of the volunteer readers is unable to log-in)
	• Thank everyone who ‘attended’ and those who helped (at Announcements) 

Maria
