Welcome to our Daily Gracelines Advent Journey with Mary!The Catechism of the Catholic Church reminds us that in the liturgical season of Advent, the Church "makes present [the] ancient expectancy of the Messiah," so that "by sharing in the long preparation for the Savior's first coming, the faithful [can] renew their ardent desire for his second coming" (#524). Advent, then, is a time of waiting, watching, and preparing for the coming of the Christ Child whose life and death bring us eternal salvation.
My prayer for you is that our Advent Journey with Mary will aid you in your faith-filled effort to make this Advent a holy time of preparation as you ponder anew the Mystery of the Incarnation and the Woman whose "fiat" made it so. May we take a mystical journey with Mary from the moment of her annunciation to the birth of her Child, and may she deliver us safely into His holy and loving heart.
The following steps will help you to maximize your experience:
- Compose yourself for your time of prayer.
- Review the theme and pray to receive the grace.
- Pray the Graceline Advent Journey with Mary reflection.
- Answer the questions in "For Reflection" and journal your insights.
- Respond to God's action within you through prayer.
Have a blessed and holy Advent and a joyous and "Mary Christmas!"
I faithfully remain,
Your sister in Christ,
