Advent Appeal 2024
Don't wait this Advent to help families in Ukraine who are facing dangerously low temperatures after fleeing the violence of Russia's invasion.
Emmanuel, God with us,
our world waits in darkness,
longing for your light.
May the light of peace
dispel the darkness of conflict,
so war and wounding cease,
and all people can live in safety.
May the light of hope
illuminate the journey
of refugees seeking sanctuary,
as the Holy Family was forced to do.
May the light of healing
kindle in us a new vision
of all creation made new,
leading us to courageous action.
May the light of love
warm our hearts as we wait
for the coming of Christ,
the Light of the World.
Amen.
