Prayerful preparation Rámond Mitchell, coordinator of liturgical celebrations at the Basilica of St. Mary in Minneapolis, lights the first Advent candle Dec. 2 as staff and volunteers get the church ready for the Advent season. After Mitchell lit the candle, the large Advent wreath was raised above the center aisle, where it will remain through the Advent and Christmas seasons. DAVE HRBACEK | THE CATHOLIC SPIRIT
