Home Retreat: 'December Infancy Stories' by Fr Henry

As Advent begins, this retreat invites us to explore the infancy narratives in Matthew and Luke, uncovering their rich connections to the Old Testament. From the annunciations to Mary, Joseph, and Zechariah to the visit of the wise men, these stories reveal Jesus as the fulfillment of God’s plan for His people.We’ll reflect on themes of divine purpose, joy, and the biblical parallels that shape these narratives—such as Jesus as the new Moses, the significance of Joseph’s adoptive fatherhood, and the role of Mary’s Magnificat. Join us for a journey through Scripture that deepens our understanding of the Nativity’s profound meaning.
