All members of the Pax Christi USA family are invited to join us tonight for the Pax Christi USA Community Weekly Advent Prayer Service, which happens each Advent Monday, 8:30-9pm ET. Tonight we’ll be drawing from the readings for the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of Mary, with a reflection offered by Sr. Anne-Louise Nadeau, SNDdeN, former Pax Christi USA Program Director. Join with members of the Pax Christi USA family from around the nation for this short evening prayer service with readings from this year’s special commemorative Advent-Christmas reflection booklet, the lighting of the Advent candles, and more. Find tonight’s program here.
The prayer service will be less than 30 minutes, help connect us across the miles (even as we still struggle with the effects of the coronavirus pandemic), and focus us on the promise of Advent, Jesus, our Emmanuel, our “God-with-us”, coming with liberation and peace.
