Advent

As we reflect upon the examples set by Mary, Elizabeth, and Joseph, how can we emulate their mercy and hope?

On the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, we are reminded of Mary and her shining example of faith in the Lord.

John the Baptist was called to be a witness to the Lord. How are you being called?

How can we proclaim Jesus’ message of justice and peace?

“We need to be using this time of isolation to recognize that we are the clay within our Potter’s hands; each of us is molded to be a gift to those around us.”

How must have Joseph felt upon learning of Mary’s pregnancy — an unlawful offense for which she could have received the death penalty — instead he decided to follow God’s will for reconciliation.

This reflection for The Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe identifies the God-given dignity to us all – particularly those society has marginalized.

For the Third Sunday of Advent — Gaudete Sunday — the Scripture readings begin to shift from “the Lord is coming” to “the Lord is at hand.”

The readings for the Second Sunday of Advent call us, God’s children, to live in harmony with one another. This unity can only be achieved through the light of Christ.

As we prepare to celebrate the birth of Christ, we reflect on how we can live and walk as he did.
