A FAMILY PERSPECTIVE FOR THE THIRD SUNDAY OF ADVENT Today’s gospel reports “there is one among you whom you do not recognize.” It is hard to believe Christ is present in a family with crazy schedules, suppers that start too late and end too early, cars that don’t start, misunderstandings, frustrations, piles of laundry, unmatched socks and stretched food budgets. The list is endless. The words spoken at Mass, “The Lord is with you,” are not a hope, they are a fact.!!
