A Few Online Advent Resources

Here are a few online resources devoted to Advent:

The Sacred Space Advent Retreat for 2007, from the Irish Jesuits, provides a retreat that you can do in one day at home, guided  by your computer.  On the linked page, they also provide more links to other websites with Advent resources.

For the three weeks and one day of this year's Advent, Pray-as-you-go will have a special Advent audio meditation to play each day based upon the Pope Benedict's first Encyclical, Deus Caritas Est.

Ignatius Insight has two articles already posted for Advent.  They are:

Mary's Gift of Self Points the Way, Part 1 of a 4-part series of meditations written by Carl Olson on the Blessed Mother and Advent, originally published in Our Sunday Visitor during Advent, 2004.

Come, Lord Jesus!: The Meaning of Advent, by Fr. Kenneth Baker, S.J., from the November 2007 issue of the Homiletic and Pastoral Review.

And thanks to the Curt Jester, who designed the Advent Wreath graphic in the sidebar here and made it available to others who would like to have an Advent Wreath in their blogs.
