On Line Advent Calendar Advent marks the beginning of the new calendar year for Christians. The digital Advent calendar offers a distinctive and spiritually enriching way to journey through this holy season. Based on the Jubilee Year’s theme of #Hope, the 2024 calendar offers prayers and resources designed to guide individuals, families and faith communities to reflect on the hope that Christ brings to the world, while also preparing for the upcoming Holy Jubilee Year in 2025.Launching the 2024 digital calendar, Bishop Monahan said, “As we enter this season to prepare for the second coming of Christ, we note the major themes of Advent: waiting and preparation, darkness and light,and the promise of comfort and hope. I encourage all to  avail of our online Advent calendar and makeprayerful space for God in our lives, each day, over the next four weeks. I respectfully invite individuals and families to use the calendar as part of their daily prayer routine and to incorporate it into parish activities. For Advent 2024 let us reflect on the hope that Christ’s coming brings in terms of healing and reconciliation in our broken world. I thank all of the contributors to our digital calendar as they are supporting us with our own spiritual preparations for Christmas as well as in our Christian roles as instruments of peace in our parishes and in the world,” Bishop Monahan concluded.
