As we begin Advent 2025, we want to offer a space to allow ourselves to be touched by the Spirit and be ready to be born again<\/strong> (cf. Jn 3:4), just as Jesus invites Nicodemus and as the Spirit invites us today, in our own time, history and mission through the GCXXIX Determination.<\/p>\n\n

This year we have prepared a series of publications<\/strong> that we will be sharing Sunday by Sunday.

In them we find concrete clues to the Christian lifestyle<\/strong> to which we are called: vigilance, openness of heart, sobriety, conversion, trust and active hope. We find a rich connection with the “filial rebirth”,<\/strong> that experience that invites us to allow ourselves to be recreated by God and to live from the depth of knowing that we are beloved daughters. <\/p>\n\n

What we will share is not intended to be a closed reflection<\/strong> or a single possible interpretation. Rather, it is an invitation<\/strong>: <\/p>\n\n
