SPECIAL EVENT

The Cause of Our Joy

As the Advent season begins, we wait with joyful anticipation of Jesus’ birth. We commemorate Jesus’ first coming in time, his renewed coming into our hearts and wait for his second coming at the end of time.

 

Who is better to help us enter into this season, but Mary, the Mother of God? In the Litany of Loretto, one of Mary’s names is Cause of our Joy.

 

With this four-part series of reflections on Mary’s Advent Joy, we’re invited to hold hands with our heavenly mother and draw closer to her spirit and her virtues, especially Mary’s joy in all circumstances. These reflections focus on the Blessed Mother’s capacity to wait, hope, pray and receive Jesus with joy. May Mary, Cause of our Joy, prepare our hearts for the true joy of Christmas.

 

We invite you to join us this Advent as we walk with Mary and explore her joy in all circumstances.

 

Sign up to receive a daily email throughout Advent with a reflection on Sundays and quotes and questions to help your prayer the rest of the week.

Alex Kucera

Atlanta

Alex Kucera has lived in Atlanta, GA, for the last 46 years. He is one of 9 children, married to his wife Karmen, and has 3 girls, one grandson, and a granddaughter on the way. Alex joined Regnum Christi in 2007. Out of the gate, he joined the Helping Hands Medical Missions apostolate and is still participating today with the Ghana Friendship Mission.

In 2009, Alex was asked to be the Atlanta RC Renewal Coordinator for the Atlanta Locality to help the RC members with the RC renewal process. Alex became a Group Leader in 2012 for four of the Atlanta Men’s Section Teams and continues today. Running in parallel, in 2013, Alex became a Team Leader and shepherded a large team of good men.

Alex was honored to be the Atlanta Mission Coordinator between 2010 to 2022 (12 years), coordinating 5-8 Holy Week Mission teams across Georgia. He also created and coordinated missions at a parish in Athens, GA, for 9 years. Alex continues to coordinate Holy Week Missions, Advent Missions, and Monthly missions at Good Shepherd Catholic Church in Cumming, GA.

From 2016 to 2022, Alex also served as the Men’s Section Assistant in Atlanta. He loved working with the Men’s Section Director, the Legionaries, Consecrated, and Women’s Section leadership teams.

Alex is exceptionally grateful to the Legionaries, Consecrated, and many RC members who he’s journeyed shoulder to shoulder, growing his relationship with Christ and others along the way. He knows that there is only one way, that’s Christ’s Way, with others!
