                                          in right relationship with the God of Love. Our Entrance song or Anti-
                                          phon at every mass celebrates that relationship. During Advent, the
                                          time of preparation for the coming of the Lord, we reflect on God’s
                                          love by beginning our Mass singing especially loudly, grateful to be
                                          invited into the Presence of the Lord.
