Let Joy Rise! A Reflection on the Nativity of Our Lord
At this Christ-moment, as we wait for the infant Jesus to be born in the mangers of our hearts, let the love of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit fill you—LET THE JOY RISE! Put aside whatever inflicts you; LET THE JOY RISE! We are the Body of Christ! Praise the Lord! LET THE JOY RISE AND OVERFLOW!
Advent 2025: Fourth Sunday of Advent Reflection

Advent 2025: Third Sunday of Advent Reflection
In this third Sunday of Advent, Gaudate Sunday, we are invited to welcome the joy of belonging to God’s family. While the wounds in our family may be a source of division and sadness, Jesus comes to bring us into a new family, the family of God. We are invited to celebrate the coming of Jesus and the joy He offers to each of us, the joy of being beloved sons and daughters.
