The first week of Advent also marks the first week of the new Liturgical Year in the Catholic Church. This week, the Church moves from its focus on the Gospel of Mark to the Gospel According to Luke. During the rest of the calendar year and into 2019, Catholics will hear Luke’s account of the mission and Passion of Jesus Christ. With the excitement of Advent and Christmas, the significance of this shift may be missed by your students. Share The End and a New Beginning with your students and families.
