                                Gratitude is a divine expression of human beings. It comes from within out of deep sense of acceptance. Gratitude is the loving agent in all our relationships.
                                Mercy of our almighty God helped us to accomplish all our tasks. Compassion of  the almighty led us to enjoy good health of body and mind. Kindness of our Lord enabled us to handle every situation.
                               We praise you Lord for all the success and failures. We glorify your name for all the experiences which you had allowed us as our blessings and lessons. We venerate you for all the times of ups and downs. We honour you for all the enriching books we read, inspirational people we met, motivational talks we heard and thought provoking sharing we had. We pay our tribute to you for all the beginning and accomplishment of various events and celebrations.
                                Dear loving God we love you for all your beautiful gifts you had showered on us during this year 2019. As we had started this year, you had been journeying along with us in the form of our family members, true friends and nature. We want to thank you for your manifold blessings by which we could render our life for your service. Take care of all whom you had given us as our treasures. Yes we believe that our family members, mentors and  friends are our true and great treasure from whom we cherish the warmth of love, faith and hope. Keep them always closer to your heart that they may be able to grow in your divine love.
                               May every step of our beloved ones be blessed by your grace. Let them never go astray from your providential care. Let your showers of graces be with them especially in all their undertakings. Let your holy angels and saints assist them  in every endeavour. May they be ever ready to accept your will as your loving children. We thank you Lord for all your wonderful deeds. We offer our thanksgiving to you through this hymn.

                                                          
                                                                    Loving oneself is something beautiful. Loving our friends is a celebration. Loving our neighbours is an invitation.  Loving our enemies is a challenge. Loving our nature is an aspiration. Loving our beloved ones is an authentic expression. Loving our world is an ardent desire. Loving our planet is a great collaboration.

                                                                    Then what is love and let love?  It is nothing but loving our dreams and respecting the dreams of others. Let love be the key word of our dreams. Let love be the stepping stone of our journey. Let love be the driving force of our dreams. Let love be the power bank of our energy.

                                            Love and let love is the secret of this day.

                                      Reading Romans:1:1-7  Each and every moment is created to embrace a new journey. In the same way every advent is a time of embracing Christ’s values with the new vision. The vision of Jesus who wanted to create a world, a world with full of love, joy,  peace, harmony and fraternity. God our loving and compassionate father and mother, we adore you for this time of  being present in your divine sanctuary. To get into the mood of this prayer service let us join in this bhajan.
Bhajan:              

                                      Light is the symbol of divine presence. It not only eradicates darkness from within and around but also strengthen us to walk boldly in the right path. Divine light leads every human being to enter into the way where is there is truth. Jesus himself promised that he is the light and the way. As we are entering into the fourth week of advent let us plead our Lord to dispel the darkness from within where by we can able to celebrate His birthday in a worthy manner.

                                     The fourth week of advent highlights the virtue of peace. It is called as angels week. As the angels brought the message Peace to the people on earth, let us pray for the gift of peace. Peace makes everything possible. Jesus the prince of peace, came on this earth not only to bring peace but also to make everyone as a lover of peace. Keeping this sentiments let us light up the candle which symbolizes peace.
Hymn:
                                     
                                     
                                       Psalm 24 After every verse let our response be: Let the Lord enter! He is the king of peace.
                                       Let us continue to be in silence for a while in reflecting peace which was imparted by Jesus. Jesus at times uttered the gift of peace after healing the sick. He rather instructed his disciples too to greet everyone with the gift of peace. He himself wished people by saying go in peace after performing miracles. Where there is peace there is unity always. Peace never wishes to see people in utter disturbance. People with peace welcome everyone with cheerful hearts. People with peace never hurt intentionally. Recalling the virtue of peace let us sing ‘make me a channel of your peace’.
Hymn.

                                       God our loving parent we come before you with heartfelt gratitude for the gift of this advent season. Thank you for your precious blessings which envelop us always to cherish your graces. We praise you for your marvelous presence during this gracious season. Help us to live as the messenger of peace in order to build a world with your divine love. May every effort of this world be built on peace. Enable us to carry the gift of peace in all walks of our lives. En kindle the spirit within to walk in peace.  We make this prayer through Christ our Lord.

                                               We are the moving radiators on this planet. We move with our own capacities, capabilities, abilities, potentialities and talents. If we move with all these we may surely become successful but not blissful.

                                               Let us move around with the positive eyes, the eyes which love the world. Let us move around with the positive tongue, the tongue which creates the loving world.

                                               People with  positive eyes and tongue are the source of encouragement. They are the roots for new beginning. They are the bearers of compassion and sharers of fraternity.

                    A life to lesson the burden of others
                    A day to spread  love around
                    A time to spare for the needy
                             Bearing a beautiful smile while greeting others
                             Blessing everyone to live a life of happiness
                             Blooming with strong conviction

                              Both the eyes to see the divine beauty
                              Both the hands to work for humanity
                              Both the legs to walk towards truth
                   
                    A gesture out of kindness
                    A way to walk with justice
                    A word spoken for peace
                               
                                              are the MIRACULOUS GIFTS OF GOD.

                                We are blessed to enter into this third week of advent. We have been travelling with our mother church in the preparation of our Lord’s coming. The hope we had received during the first week of advent, the love we had experienced during the second week of advent are going to be strengthened during this third week.
                                Third week of advent which is known as Guadete Sunday is another expression of God’s love. Because God wants us to live our life happily. The love of our Lord is the driving force of our journey on this earth. Venerating this unconditional love of God, the benevolent life giver we join in this Bhajan.
BHAJAN

                                Light is the promise of God, the creator of divine light. God himself is light and He wants us to be in the light. In fact He tells us that we are the light of the world. Where there is light there is no fear. Where there is light there is no doubt. We too are invited to enjoy this third week of advent by being present in the light. Added to that let us develop the hope of radiating light, the light which enables everyone to walk without confusions.
                                Third week of advent highlights the gift of joy which was brought by baby Jesus. Joy to the world was the message given to this world. As the people filled with God’s joy during this  advent season let us light up the third candle which symbolizes  joy within and joy around us.
Hymn

                                 Psalm 146  .         Let our response be Rejoice in the Lord.

                                 As every day in advent is the day of preparation, let us feel glad to spend a while in reflection. The message of joy to the world was brought to the people who were very simple in heart. Their readiness to receive our Lord was impressive. Their constant effort to wait for the Lord with humble hearts and truthful service made them to become worthy of receiving our Lord and His message. As there were many awaiting for His arrival it was the simple people chosen to be the instruments of God’s message. Let us also check ourselves that are we worthy enough to receive our Lord or are we truly preparing ourselves to celebrate His birthday?
                                 Dear loving Jesus the admirer of human race, we thank and praise you for your mere presence in the midst of us. We venerate you for your amicable encouragement in the time of distress. We love you for counting us worthy to be numbered in the list of your beloved people. Here we express our thanks through this hymn.
Hymn
                               
                                 Gospel reading Mt:11:2-11  Jesus clearly expresses himself in the gospel as a person who heals, who cares, who understands, who purifies, who forgives, who appreciates and who loves. As he proclaimed the zealous involvement of John the Baptist, he did not deny the fact that we too can become his docile instruments. Praying for each one of us personally, for every member in our mother church, every member of our congregation and all those who are in need of divine blessings let us join in our Lord’s prayer.                   
                                 Dear loving Lord, we thank you for your affectionate presence in our midst. Help us to remain faithful for your love and the call we have received. We make this prayer through Christ our Lord. Amen.
