A great Christmas gift!
A blessed Advent to you all! I hope that this Advent season is a time of prayer and reflection as you prepare your heart to celebrate the coming of Christ at Christmas.
As we prepare for Christmas, I would like to suggest a Christmas gift for your family and friends, a gift that will help lead them closer to Jesus and Mary through trust. My book Stepping on the Serpent: The Journey of Trust with Mary is available for $14.95 on www.shopmercy.org. Thank you for your prayers and support of my religious Congregation, the Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception, as we spread the message of Divine Mercy and devotion to Mary Immaculate. I pray that our Lord and our Blessed Mother might walk with you along your journey of trust in this world and lead you home to Heaven.
