Archbishop of Dublin’s Advent Reflections continue on Sunday

Archbishop Michael Jackson continues his video reflections for Advent this Sunday (December 6). On the Second Sunday of Advent, his theme is ‘Patience’ based on the reading from 2 Peter 3: 8–15a. This passage is read by Stella Obe, a Diocesan Reader from Castleknock.

In an Advent and Christmas that are unlike any we have known, Archbishop Jackson observes that our customary expectations for December are not present in 2020. “It is now so much more about being with God and bringing God and the care, the joy, the laughter of God to other people outside the church buildings. This is our calling. This is to be our expectation,” he says in Sunday’s reflection.

The video will be available to watch on www.dublin.anglican.org or on the Dublin & Glendalough YouTube Channel here on Sunday morning as well as on our Facebook and Twitter feeds.
