REFLECTION FOR THE THIRD WEEK OF ADVENT – Fr Anthony Kelly SMA

Each week until Christmas a short video reflection on the Season of Advent will be published on this website.  Each reflection has been recorded by an SMA Father and will focus on different aspects of our faith and Christian living as we prepare to celebrate the birth of Christ.  

The third reflection in this series comes from Fr Anthony Kelly SMA, a member of the Provincial Leadership Team, based in Blackrock Road, Cork. 

Fr Anthony reflects on the darkness of winter that is broken by the lights of the Christmas.  Light is often something taken for granted rather than seen as a gift.  He remembers, Mother Teresa, Desmond Tutu and Pope John Paul II  – people who reflect the light of Christ, a light that is needed so much in the present world.
