Each year we start the season of Lent with a curious practice of having our foreheads marked with ashes in the sign of a cross. Ashes represent the total destruction of anything that is burned up by fire. It is the carbon that is left from such full and complete destruction. It is a substance that seems totally lifeless. Ancient people used this symbol by throwing dust or ashes upon themselves when confronted with devastating news like the death of a loved one. It symbolized their interior feelings of hopelessness when confronting death. Another symbolic action was the tearing of their garments. Ancient people usually only owned one or two sets of clothing, so such an action was also very devastating.

The following reflections were submitted by parishioners as part of their spiritual practices for Advent. We will publish one reflection a day for the rest of January.
I am “running” into the word HOPE pretty frequently these Advent days in what I read and what I hear. It is “something” I need in my life these days because of the many situations in life that could lead me to “despair”.

No poems or songs. But the joy of watching the three Latino children and their families tonight as they made their First Communion was wonderful and a light for me showing how much Jesus is present in their lives and mine.

Advent Morning Offering
The exit boasts no superior coffee, only
A humble Waffle House, to be gained by a
Dauntingly rutted access road: a pitted lot
and cheap cheer in red and silver tinsel.
Come in, Love
And sit wherever you want, whatlitbe?
A smile sweet and free.

A group of us were praying in silence on the stairs of the Cathedral about a month ago and a woman walked up, pulling a fully packed suitcase along behind her. The woman stopped, looked us over, and said, "I'm a prayer warrior, too. What's happening?" I stepped from the group and shared our prayer intentions briefly with her.
