Second Sunday of Advent Dominican Rite/Chant

The Second Sunday of Advent celebration of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass calls us to be consoled by the coming of the Word Made Flesh in our faith, and trust in God's providence in any circumstance as members of the Mystical Body of Christ. St. John the Baptist imprisoned to be beheaded by King Herod the Tetrarch, is confirmed in his faith by the words of Jesus to his disciples that the messianic prophecies of Isaiah are fufilled in Christ's miracles that John's disciples bear witness to him of even in prison.
