As we prepare to enter the holy season of Advent this Sunday, November 30, we are invited to reflect on its profound significance within our Catholic faith. In this sacred time, we ready our hearts to once again celebrate the birth of Christ, remembering the humble circumstances of a child born in a manger, bringing light to the world. This holy season calls us to prepare with prayer and openness, embracing the virtues of hope, peace, joy, and love.
