In a world of strain and strife these days, we're called to the light and hope of Advent. We do not know when the light of Christ will enter our lives, so Fr. Dan Riley, ofm, invites us to stay alert as the Gospel calls us, and pause to be part of all the new beginnings around us. Music, "Vedahametam," by Fr. Cyprian Consiglio (used with permission). Produced Dec. 3, 2020. Podcast #229. For more information about Mt. Irenaeus, visit www.mountainonline.org.
