| Month of the Immaculate Conception | |
| The Catechism of the Catholic Church explains: 490) To become the mother of the Saviour, Mary “was enriched by God with gifts appropriate to such a role.” The angel Gabriel at the moment of the annunciation salutes her as “full of grace”. In fact, in order for Mary to be able to give the free assent of her faith to the announcement of her vocation, it was necessary that she be wholly borne by God's grace. 491) Through the centuries the Church has become ever more aware that Mary, “full of grace” through God, was redeemed from the moment of her conception. That is what the dogma of the Immaculate Conception confesses, as Pope Pius IX proclaimed in 1854: The most Blessed Virgin Mary was, from the first moment of her conception, by a singular grace and privilege of almighty God and by virtue of the merits of Jesus Christ, saviour of the human race, preserved immune from all stain of original sin. | |

| Advent begins December 3rd | |
| "The name Advent [from the Latin word Adventus, which signifies a coming] is a period of the year, during which the Church requires the faithful to prepare for the celebration of the feast of Christmas.The mystery of that great day had every right to the honor of being prepared for by prayer and works of penance." ~Dom Prosper Guéranger Don't forget to keep holy this season of Advent, especially through the beautiful traditions of our Church, including Advent wreaths, calendars, Jesse trees, nativities and more. | |

| | Dear Friends in Christ,
The national effort for a Eucharistic Revival has been underway for over a year. At the heart of every effort is a desire to respond more fully to God's invitation. The same God who gives us life wants to nourish us for our human journey. We live in a world filled with joys and challenges. We must respond, but the path forward is often difficult and uncertain. God does not abandon those who call out to him. He responds to give us strength as we follow the narrow way, as we carry our crosses alongside Jesus. | |
