Advent Faith & Fellowship Groups
Beginning December 1 & 2, 2024!
For Christians, Advent is not meant to be a time of passive waiting, but rather of hopeful preparation for the coming of the Lord. Join one of the Advent Faith & Fellowship Groups as we use a devotional booklet by Bishop Robert Barron who invites us to enter more deeply into the prayerful nature of the season.
We will have Advent Gospel Reflections that features the full Gospel reading for each day of Advent, a daily reflection from Bishop Barron, space for journaling and answering reflection questions, and more!
No cost to join but registration is requested.
Advent & Christmas Prayer Intentions & Requests
As a community of faith, we are brothers and sisters – one family – in the Lord.
One of the gifts we can give to each other is to hold each other and our special intentions in prayer.
There’s a strength and peace that comes when we pray for one another. If you have a special intention or prayer request, please complete the form below. You can either keep this intention private (only shared among our priests and deacons), or you can share this with the entire community so all our members can keep you, your intention, and/or your loved one in prayer.
