This Advent, let us reflect on the hope that Christ brings to the world.
The Irish Catholic Bishop’s Conference is delighted to be bringing you their Digital Advent Calendar again this year. Each day there are Advent Prayers, including a Prayer Intention for the Day to Pray Together and in Kids Corner you will find fun activities for children to enjoy and learn more about the Season of Advent.
Advent is a time of spiritual preparation for the Lord’s coming at Christmas. Advent also prepares us for the second coming of Christ at the end of time.
The Digital Advent Calendar offers resources which are available behind a virtual door each day during the Season of Advent.
Behind each door there will be content aimed at assisting you to pray and to reflect on how best we can keep Christ at the centre of our Christmas preparations during this special liturgical 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.
