Family weekend: "God sent his son, born of a woman"
As Christmas approaches, taking time to pause as a family
A weekend to take care of your family
The season of Advent… an invitation to make ourselves available to the fulfillment of God's work, in us and in the world. Let us move forward in trust with Mary, our educator, our guide, and our mother.
By Father Philippe Blanc, vice-rector, and a Sister of the sanctuary.
