July is month of festivals, fun and (hopefully) sun. Just in case it rains, you can keep the young people in your life occupied by taking a look at our selection of children's books, including some activity books. Or treat yourself to a good read while relaxing in the sun.

Just one week until Advent!

Time seems to play tricks on us in this very challenging year, and suddenly, Advent is approaching in just over a week.

This year, we are all even more preoccupied and stressed than usual, as we worry for our own families and friends, grieve for loved ones, and empathise with others who have lost so very much this year. More than ever before, we need to find an oasis of calm where we can connect with the real meaning of Christmas, and restore our sense of hope and joy.

Carve out that space for yourself by joining in our Advent Camino series of daily reflections, or register for our online Advent Retreat Day on 12 December - or both.

Fr Gerry O'Shaughnessy SDB and Sr Susan Richert PBVM have collaborated to provide opportunities for us to prepare for the Lord in our hearts at such a busy and stressful time. Follow the links below to find out more and take part in our Advent activities.
