December 22, 2013 – Fourth Sunday of Advent Welcome to the University Parish Newman Center. We cherish your presence among us and invite you to enter wholeheartedly into our worship. As Catholics, we understand our worship as our community’s grateful response to God’s goodness and love. Thus our liturgy is not a “spectator” experience; participation in prayer and in song is everyone’s responsibility and privilege. Please do not be a stranger. Pray and sing with us as members of God’s human family.
