The Rat Savior is a 1976 Croatian fantastic horror film directed by Krsto Papić. It was released in 1976, and was selected as the Yugoslav entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 49th Academy Awards. In 1999, a poll of Croatian film critics found it to be one of the best Croatian films ever made.
The plot: A man uncovers a race of intelligent rats who can appear as human. He is captured and taken to the rat people’s leader (the "savior" of the movie's title). He escapes, but then wonders who among his fellow humans is a rat person in disguise.
One of the movie locations was also the building in the photo, located in the historic part of Zagreb, Croatia. I watched the movie as a small child and, as a result, spent the rest of my childhood and early teens scared to death of that building. Of course, it sounds silly now. :-)
My sunset capture got blown out, but fortunately for me, the woman in front of me nailed the shot! Now, all I've gotta do is just crop this down some more... ;-)
This cliche image (photographing the photographer) was taken a few years ago in Sedona, Arizona.

Introduction
The Word of God | "The Savior Has Already Returned Upon a 'White Cloud'"
Almighty God says, "Since Jesus departed, the disciples who followed Him, and all of the saints who were saved thanks to His name, have been desperately pining for Him and awaiting Him. All those who were saved by the grace of Jesus Christ during the Age of Grace have been longing for that joyful day during the last days, when Jesus the Savior arrives on a white cloud and appears among man. …Yet Jesus the Savior did not do this; He did the opposite of what man conceived. He did not arrive among those who had yearned for His return, and did not appear to all men while riding upon the white cloud. He has already arrived, but man does not know Him, and remains ignorant of His arrival. Man is only aimlessly awaiting Him, unaware that He has already descended upon a white cloud (the cloud which is His Spirit, His words, and His entire disposition and all that He is), and is now among a group of overcomers that He will make during the last days."

O Holy Night
O holy night the stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Savior's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new glorious morn
Fall on your knees
O hear the angels' voices
O night divine
O night when Christ was born
O night divine o night
O night divine
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new glorious morn
Fall on your knees
O hear the angels' voices
O night divine
O night when Christ was born
O night divine o night
O night divine
Ooh yes it was
Ooh it is the night of our dear Savior's birth
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, yeah
It was a holy holy holy, oh oh oh
ADAME' VALLEY. It is a valley of glacial origin whose perfect U shape can be seen and is a "suspended valley"; there are in fact about 400 m of altitude difference between the valley floor of the Saviore Valley and that of the Adamè Valley. Camonica Valley, Lombardy, ITALY. EXPLORE 05-09-2023.
These statues are part of an art exhibition in Budapest.
The New World Design for Contemporary Art presents almost 600sqm of the world of the Great War, which can be seen as the epoch that radically changed the world order of the time: the formerly stable empires have dissolved, culture and public thought have changed dramatically. World War II buried the old world, the result of a new world conflagration and then the Cold War. Europe was bleak in the twilight that the 20th century was dominated by America and Russia.
The exhibition takes visitors from happy peace to enthusiasm for war and bitter disappointment. It shows how the civilization of civilized and global warfare was fought, how the 19th century came to a standstill and the hinterland became the battlefield. The nature of war has changed: victory has now become a function of the amount of war material.

Pilgrimage Church of the Scourged Savior was built between 1745-1754 is a oval rococo church in the municipality of Steingaden in the Weilheim-Schongau district, Bavaria, Germany. The Wieskirche was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1983.
"In 1738, tears were seen on a dilapidated wooden figure of the Scourged Saviour. This miracle resulted in a pilgrimage rush to see the sculpture. In 1740, a small chapel was built to house the statue but it was soon realized that the building would be too small for the number of pilgrims it attracted, and so Steingaden Abbey decided to commission a separate shrine. Many who have prayed in front of the statue of Jesus on the altar, have claimed that people have been miraculously cured of their diseases, which has made this church even more of a pilgrimage site." (Wikipedia)
"Galanthus is a small genus of about 20 species in the family Amaryllidaceae commonly known as Snowdrops. Most flower in winter, before the Spring Equinox (21st March in the Northern Hemisphere) but certain species flower in late autumn and early spring.
Snowdrops are sometimes confused with their relatives, snowflakes, which are Leucojum and Acis species.
Some snowdrop species are threatened in their wild habitats, and in most countries it is now illegal to collect bulbs from the wild. Under CITES regulations, international trade in any quantity of Galanthus, whether bulbs, live plants or even dead ones, is illegal without a CITES permit. This applies to hybrids and named cultivars as well as species. CITES does, however, allow a limited trade in wild-collected bulbs of just three species (G. nivalis, G, elwesii and G. woronowii) from Turkey and Georgia.
It was suggested by Duvoisin in 1983 that the mysterious magical herb moly that appears in Homer's Odyssey is actually snowdrop. An active substance in snowdrop is called galantamine, which, as anticholinesterase, could have acted as an antidote to Circe's poisons.[10] Galantamine (or galanthamine) can be helpful in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, though it is not a cure; the substance also occurs naturally in daffodils and other narcissi." wikipedia.org

This simple lighthouse at Harbor Beach along the Lake Huron coast has quite a history. Fronting a large man-made harbor, this light came about (pardon the pun!) from the demands of schooner captains that couldn't navigate Lake Huron when westerly winds blew strong across the Saginaw Bay to the north. So, they needed a place to put in to wait out the weather.
Theme: Now Is the Time to Wake Up – Soon, Our Savior Will Be Born, First Sunday of Advent
Readings: Isaiah 2:1–5; Psalm 122; Romans 13:11–14; Matthew 24:37–44
Greetings Everyone- especially to our catechumens and candidates who take an important step today—welcome to Advent, the season when the Church cries out with longing: “Lord, come!” Advent is not simply a countdown to Christmas. Advent is an awakening. It is a shaking of the soul. It is a call to rise from spiritual sleep because “our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed,” as Saint Paul declares today.
Isaiah begins our readings with a breathtaking vision. He sees a world finally at peace—a world where nations stream toward the mountain of the Lord, where swords are beaten into plowshares, where humanity walks in the light of God. Isaiah’s prophecy is the great Advent promise: God Himself is coming into our darkness and making all things new.
But the fact that Isaiah has to invite Israel to “walk in the light of the Lord” means something: God’s light can come, and we can still fall asleep spiritually. We can still stumble in the shadows. And so Paul’s words pierce us today: “It is the hour now for you to awake from sleep.” What kind of sleep is he talking about? Not physical sleep—but the sleep of distraction, complacency, and lukewarmness. It is when we live on autopilot… when faith becomes routine… when we settle for less than the fullness God wants to give us.
Father Gregory Pine describes this beautifully when he speaks about your Eucharistic identity: “Your Eucharistic identity is who you are before God: someone made to receive Him, to adore Him, and to become like Him.”
Advent is the season when the Church says: Wake up to your Eucharistic identity. Wake up to who you truly are, in God’s eyes. The Gospel today is jarring, and intentionally so. Jesus speaks of the days of Noah—people eating, drinking, marrying. Nothing sinful in that—just ordinary life. But it became dangerous when ordinary life lulled them into forgetting God. They were spiritually asleep. “So will it be at the coming of the Son of Man,” Jesus says. Two people in a field—one taken, one left. Two women grinding at the mill—one taken, one left. What’s the difference? Not their work. Not their lifestyle. The difference is readiness—the openness to God that keeps the heart awake.
And that is why this Gospel is perfect for the Rite of Acceptance today. Catechumens and candidates, today you declare your readiness—not perfect readiness, but sincere readiness—to walk toward Christ. Today you begin a journey of waking up spiritually, of stepping out of darkness and into the light. Today, the Church welcomes you as those who seek Christ. But let me be clear: this journey is not only for those entering the Church. This journey is for all of us. Advent is the Church shaking each of us by the shoulders and saying: “Stop putting off your conversion. Stop waiting for tomorrow to become holy. Wake up—now.”
There is a prayer that captures this better than any commentary. It’s a raw, honest, vulnerable plea from the heart—something every one of us should pray from our hearts for the beginning of our Advent season. Listen to these words from Father Pine as quoted from his recent book, “Your Eucharistic Identity:” “Lord Jesus Christ, I want you, whole and entire. I want to live a life of Eucharistic worship. I do not want anything less than that fullness. I just want you. I want to be caught up in your life and in your plans for mine. I want to live your sacred mysteries in my own soul and body. I know this will be painful, but I am willing. I know I will have to confront my various sins and vices. That scares me. Please help me. Help me to be honest about my struggles. Help me to be steadfast in my resolve. Help me to be humble in my need. I know that I am lukewarm and overly comfortable. I hate this about myself, but I do not know how to change. Help me to be aware of my attachments. Help me to be zealous for your life. Help me to be radical in my conversion. I know this will mean dealing with ups and downs. I wish I could live a life of continual progress, but I doubt that I will. Help me not to indulge in sadness or anger when difficulties arise. Help me not to give way to despair. Help me not to put off my conversion until tomorrow, when I can endeavor it in simple ways today. Lord Jesus Christ, I want you, but apart from you I can do nothing. Grant me the grace to desire you more. Grant me the grace to pursue you well.”
Psalm 122 today sings, “Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.” Advent is the journey to that house—the house where Christ will be born. And like Israel, we walk toward the Lord with joy, even if our steps are slow, even if our hearts are not perfectly ready.
Catechumens and candidates, your step today is a sign for the entire parish. You remind all of us that discipleship begins with desire—with waking up enough to say: “Lord, I want you.” Brothers and sisters, now is the time to wake up. Now is the time to draw near. Now is the time to return to prayer, to confession, to Scripture, to silence, to charity. Now is the time to reawaken our Eucharistic identity—to live as people who belong to Christ.
Because very soon—sooner than we think—our Savior will be born.
Let us walk toward Him in the light of the Lord. Let us not delay our conversion. Let us rise from our sleep, and allow Christ to shine on us.
