“During Advent we do not just live in anticipation of Christmas; we are also called to rekindle the anticipation of the glorious return of Christ, when he will return at the end of time, preparing ourselves, with consistent and courageous choices, for the final encounter with him.” – Pope Francis
Advent is a season when we await the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ at Christmas, while preparing for his return to earth in glory. We observe this season through four Sundays leading up to Christmas Day with prayer, meditation and Scripture study that emphasizes hope, peace, love and joy.
Please accept this Advent Calendar as our gift for your time of preparation, until we can joyously wish one another a Merry Christmas.
