Product Description

There is nothing more beautiful than the Christmas season as it is celebrated at St. Peter's Basilica and throughout Vatican City. The dark nights, glowing candles, incense and music infuse the season with the spirit of God. Now in paperback for the first time, this book helps you mark the events of the season. Guided by the Holy Fathers, you will hear the meaning of Advent, honor the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, adore with the shepherds on Christmas Eve, experience the morning of the Nativity itself, listen to a call to holiness on Christmas Night, understand the mystery of suffering on St. Stephen's Day, crown the Virgin as the Mother of God, and with the Magi, worship the Christ Child.

Editorial Reviews

"This little book is a compilation of passages taken from various addresses given by the Holy Fathers, from Pope St. Leo the Great to the two most recent pontiffs. The variety of speakers and topics help to demonstrate the timelessness of the Church’s message about Christmas as well as the universality of the coming of Christ…Each excerpt transports the reader back into the mystery of Christmas and the importance of Advent while not requiring a debilitating block of time in one’s personal schedule. The book is broken down into sections pertaining to Advent, Christmas Eve, the Nativity, the Epiphany, and the significance of the Mother of God. Within each section are a variety of texts which can be read one at a time or together…Christmas with the Holy Fathers is perfect for carrying in a purse or backpack and convenient to read while waiting in line, for a moment or two before Mass, or while taking a break from work or school. In any situation, the book is guaranteed to bring the reader back to a calmer, more mystical place and to prepare them, in small increments of the coming of the Savior." —Katherine Haas, Catholic News Agency, online review
