Cycle C (2012)
We begin the new liturgical year this Sunday, December 2, 2012 on the First Sunday of Advent. For this four week season of Advent, Ave Maria Press has published the third (Cycle C) in the series of The Unsheltered Heart: An Advent At-Home Retreat. I also wrote reflection guides for small groups participating in the retreat. These reflection guides are on the Ave Maria Press website. (Click here)
I draw your attention again to the hour-long online seminar I participated in two years ago when the first in the series (Cycle A) was published. This seminar explores the spirituality of Advent. (Click here)
Blessings on the journey of Christmas preparation.

Broken But Not Divided 
Dear Fr. Ron, Thanks so much for this great Advent resource! My thoughts and prayers are with you in this wonderful time of preparation for Christ’s coming into our hearts at Christmas! I am especially aware of our dear departed classmate, Fr. Mark Illig, with much thanks for the blessing he was in my life. My thoughts and fond rememberance of you and our years together in formation always resonate throughout the liturgical seasons of the Church. God bless you this day and always.
