Embrace a deeper connection with God and find peaceful, reflective moments during the bustling Advent season.

The Visitation (Domenico Ghirlandaio, 1491)

Reflection: Today we have the profound moment when Mary visits her cousin Elizabeth, both carrying the unexpected miracle of new life. When they embrace, we see joy, humility, and the shared recognition of God’s unfolding plan. Elizabeth’s expression of awe toward Mary reminds us of the sacredness in everyday encounters when God is present.

Our human relationships with others in this life are meant to be a gift to us. In what ways might God be calling you to experience deeper personal connections, especially with other women in your life? What fears might be holding you back? Like Mary and Elizabeth, we are invited to share the Good News and support one another in faith, trusting in God’s promises. May this Advent deepen our sense of community, joy, and hope in God's plan.

Let’s go deeper.

What’s below:

⭐THINK: Journaling questions to take your reflections deeper. Navigate the season with more purpose and peace.

⭐PRAY: 5-minute audio guided prayer to help you meditate on scripture. We’re diving deep into the Gospel of Luke, one chapter a day for 24 days, leading us all the way to Christmas Eve. Real spiritual connection in just a few minutes.

⭐ACT: Daily action prompt, guiding you to put your faith into practice right away. Simple, actionable steps to grow in faith daily.
