Ascension Presents Rejoice! Advent Meditations with the Holy Family

What to Expect When You’re Expecting the Birth of Jesus | Fourth Week of Advent

What did you expect to get out of Advent this year? How does that compare to how it actually went? If it didn’t meet your expectations, that’s okay. Mary and Joseph didn’t expect to conceive the son of God and give birth to him in a stable in Bethlehem.

We hope that Rejoice! Advent Meditations with the Holy Family was a blessing to you this year! If you’d be interested in a similar experience this coming Lent, Fr. Mark Toups is cooking up a prayerful Lenten study for 2021. The Ascension Lenten Companion: Year B — A Personal Encounter with the Power of the Gospel. We hope you’ll join us!
