This event is the single most attended event at IC, and it\u2019s all women.<\/p>\n<p>While many parishes do similar pre-Advent events and often emphasize the social aspects, most especially table decorating, and by that, I mean, \u201cWho\u2019s table is the \u2018best dressed\u2019?\u201d Mary, Eleanor, and the committee of women from the parish wanted to put the focus on the spiritual, with simple meditations on Mary, our model as women, testimonies by women from the parish, beautiful music from a women\u2019s ensemble, and candles. Lots of candles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAdvent by Candlelight is a spiritual evening for women in the parish and the greater community,\u201d Eleanor said. \u201cThey come and intentionally prepare their hearts for the coming of Christ.\u201d Mary added, \u201cWe realized when we began working at this parish that people were ready for something more. They were hungry for a deeper experience of God but struggled to find time for prayer. Advent isn\u2019t a peaceful season for most women. Our culture focuses on presents and party planning, but we wanted this special night to be a moment of grace for them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The first Advent by Candlelight occurred in 2015.\u00a0 Mary was leading a women\u2019s bible study and one afternoon, one of the members said, \u201cWe are receiving so much through this small group, but there\u2019s got to be a way we reach more women of our parish.\u201d After a high-spirited, idea-filled afternoon, they decided to propose Advent by Candlelight.<\/p>\n<p>With a little more than a month before the event date, preparations began.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey have to have an experience of God\u2019s love,\u201d Mary explained.\u00a0 \u201cThat is what we have to offer as consecrated women and this is at the core of our charism\u2014small groups, personal accompaniment, and strong spiritual experiences.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Pastor of Immaculate Conception gave his permission for the event before Mary even finished explaining the concept.

It will be my gift to the women of the parish.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The ladies planned, budgeted, purchased decorations and ordered food. They were hoping and praying for 50 women. Days before the event, more decorations were purchased and more food ordered. Registrations had hit 170.<\/p>\n<p>The crowd surprised everyone, perhaps because it was near the 170<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary of the parish.\u00a0 Ironically, the crowd number 170, made the food bill a little higher than the Pastor has expected but he couldn\u2019t have been more overjoyed at the turnout.<\/p>\n<p>The 2016 event drew 204 women and, despite a $25 price tag in 2017, the crowd hit 300 \u2013 a sellout for the parish facility.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs I stood outside the room saying goodnight to women the first year, I was overwhelmed by how many seemed to have been deeply touched by the event,\u201d Mary said. \u201cIt was almost as if you could feel the Regnum Christi charism in the room. Something had happened that was not our doing. It was a tangible experience that Christ\u2019s Kingdom was among us. He was near\u2014Emmanuel, God with us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSC_0903-300x200.jpg\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13090 alignleft lazyload\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13090 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.regnumchristi.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/DSC_0903-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\"><\/noscript>This year the committee decided to focus the testimonies around three elements: spirituality, communion, mission \u2013 the three aspects of evangelization outlined by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops for Adult Faith Formation, and central aspects of the Regnum Christi charism.<\/p>\n<p>Marta Stepniak, Vicariate I Director of Life-Long Formation, a key leader in the Chicago Archdiocese responsible for advising 70 parishes, attended the event and wrote the following, \u201cThank you is not enough to express my gratitude for the experience of Advent by Candlelight.

She worked on the road team to Kansas, Iowa, and Nebraska from 2010-2012. Now she is full time in Chicago working as the Director of Religious Education at Immaculate Conception Parish in Highland Park.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mary Maher<\/strong> grew up in Michigan, the second of six children. Her family is originally from Chicago, thus her sports loyalties; she\u2019s an especially avid fan of the Cubs and the Fighting Irish.<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s been consecrated to God for sixteen years and has served in Rhode Island, Mexico and throughout the Midwest.\u00a0 She holds a degree in Religious and Pastoral Studies from the Anahuac University. Her ministry has been primarily focused on faith formation of adult women; she is a spiritual director, and leads speakers series and spirituality groups. \u00a0She\u2019s also worked extensively with youth, as a spiritual coach, retreat leader, service coordinator, and director of international mission trips. (Building a house for a poor family in Mexico is one of her personal favorites!)<\/p>\n<p>Mary loves to pray hard and play hard; some of her hobbies are running and spending quality time with family and friends.
