What's Happening

December 22: Seeking, Finding, and Accepting God

Pope Francis’ General Audience today was highlighted by his anticipation of the great events that await us. “Dear brothers and sisters,” he said, “I would like to invite every man and woman to the stable of Bethlehem to adore the Son of God made man. May each one of us draw near to the crèche […]
