The weeks of Advent are an opportunity for spiritual renewal that begins with a deepening awareness of our longing, and lead us to a greater openness to God’s many gifts.
During the coming four weeks leading to the celebration of Christmas, we are encouraged to make time each day to pause and reflect on the gift of God-with-us.
As Advent 2017 unfolds, you are invited to explore the following resources which are but a few of the many available to help believers prepare to celebrate the birth of Jesus, Son of Mary and our Brother:
