The Holy Season of Advent

The Advent Season is a time in which we can enter more deeply into the mystery of God’s love for us as His children.  Advent comes when the days are naturally quieter as a stillness settles over the earth.  Together, as brothers and sisters, we prayerfully enter this stillness in anticipation of the coming of our Lord Jesus into our world as Savior and as the Light for all nations. 

Pope Francis summoned us to be Pilgrims of Hope this Jubilee Year and to live our faith joyfully.  Advent is a special season in which we are invited to do this more intentionally by sharing our joy and hope, peace and love with others. 

In the silent stillness of Advent, we prayerfully await the coming of Jesus at Christmas!

Come, Lord Jesus!
