Prepare Your Heart: The Way of Nazareth

Fr. Agustino Torres, CFR, invites you on a pilgrimage this Advent using Prepare Your Heart: A Guided Advent Journal for Prayer and Meditation.

In week one of the Prepare Your Heart Advent journal, Fr. Agustino Torres, CFR, invites us to focus on the town of Nazareth during the time of Jesus. Nazareth was a small and ordinary town in the first century, but he reminds us that holiness happens in the ordinary. It is in the daily gift of ourselves to Jesus and one another that holiness happens—that our hearts and lives are transformed.
