Echoes of Hope: The Prophets and the Promise of Christ

Before the manger, there were voices, ancient voices crying out into the darkness. The prophets of Israel longed for the day when God would keep His promises and draw near to His people. Isaiah, John the Baptist, Elizabeth, and Mary each echo that same promise: God is faithful, and His Word becomes flesh.

Join us on Monday, December 15th at 7pm for a one-night Advent Parish Mission as we journey through the mystery of God’s saving plan:

  • The Promise, proclaimed by the prophets,
  • The Preparation, announced by John the Baptist and witnessed by Elizabeth and Mary, and
  • The Presence, when the Word becomes flesh at the Nativity.

Together, we will listen to the voices that foretold the coming of Christ and discover how their longing and hope can awaken ours today.
