Advent is about preparing our souls to celebrate Christmas worthily, as it should be celebrated. And that is what this Retreat Guide will focus on: getting to know God better, especially getting to know better his personal love for you, as proven so gloriously in the great mystery of Christmas. A Brand New Resource: Online Mini-Retreat for Advent! We just published our first Retreat Guide – a free, online, do-it-yourself mini-retreat designed to help you pray. It’s called You Matter: A Retreat Guide for Advent. You can use it online or download it for your convenience. You can watch it, listen to it, or read it – alone, with your family, or in a group setting. Use it yourself, and share it as much as you want. We hope this will be the first of many monthly Retreat Guides, and we hope to improve with each one – but to do that, we will need your feedback!
