Happy Third Week of Advent, Sisters in Christ!

Please allow us to re-introduce Day 7 of the Mother's Day Retreat, with a bit of a background story to accompany it. It's a busy time for everyone, especially mothers, and it would be a good time to slow down, reflect, and spend time with Our Lord in prayer.

This week, we share a mother’s path from grief to consolation through a family pilgrimage to Lourdes and a renewed Advent focus on peace, prayer, and quiet healing. Along the way, we pray the Immaculate Conception Novena and reflect on faith, hope, and love in the busiest season.

• Advent peace through simple daily prayer
• Novena to the Immaculate Conception
• Why contemplative prayer and communal prayer sustains mothers
• Offering sorrow and stress during Advent
• Lourdes pilgrimage after miscarriage and deployment
• Consolation versus physical cures
• Faith, hope, and love as a way of life
• Litany to Our Lady and closing blessing

Please subscribe to our podcast and YouTube channel and please spread the word! Thank you + God bless!
