Pope Francis on Advent

Advent,” he said, “is a moment of grace to take off our masks – every one of us has them – and line up with those who are humble, to be freed from our presumption of being self-sufficient, to go to confess our sins (the hidden ones) to welcome God’s pardon, and to ask forgiveness from those whom we have offended. This is how to begin a new life.
