In preparation for World Youth Day in Portugal next year, we celebrate National Youth Sunday today and pray for our young people! 🙏

During this #Advent Season, let us ask the Lord to help us keep the lamp of faith alit in our lives, to be prepared to receive him, and that he fill us with peace and joy.

In the #GospelOfTheDay we hear a promise that introduces us to the Time of #Advent: “Your Lord is coming” (Mt 24:42). This is the foundation of our hope, it is what supports us even in the most difficult moments: God is coming. Let us never forget this!

On this day in 1969, Jorge Mario Bergoglio was ordained a priest. 44 years later, he would be elected as Successor of Peter, choosing the name “Francis.” “In the image of the Good Shepherd, the priest is a man of mercy and compassion, close to his people and a servant to all."

“Value the peace you have this Christmas.” A message from Father Vitaliy in a bomb shelter in Ukraine. He is one of the aid workers delivering DEC funded aid through Depaul Ukraine, the local partner of CAFOD and Plan International UK. Thank you for supporting the #UkraineAppeal.

As we think about and celebrate The Holy Family today, why not say a special prayer for your family today and let The Holy Family be a shining example for you and your family ❤️

Lord Jesus Christ Make all men and women witnesses of truth,justice&brotherly love.Banish from their hearts whatever might endanger peace.Enlighten our rulers that they may guarantee and defend the great gift of peace May longed-for peace reign always over us all. Amen. - JPII

Churches Together in Britain and Ireland says that during this octave of prayer for Christian unity "we are guided by the churches of Minneapolis as we seek to explore how the work of Christian unity can contribute to the promotion of racial justice across all levels of society"
