Fr. Thomas Loya shares the profound significance of Advent as a season of spiritual preparation. He explains how the Church, through its rich prayers and traditions, teaches us to look beyond the commercialized celebrations of Christmas. Rather than indulging in excess, Advent calls us to embrace prayer, fasting, and charity to renew our focus and deepen our connection with Christ. Fr. Loya emphasizes that true joy comes from making space in our hearts for the coming of the Savior, fostering a love that transforms ourselves and our relationships.
