Christmas 2024 – An Advent of Hope

In this 2024, the Advent season calls us even more to wait for the Lord who comes, to contemplate the mystery of Christ’s Incarnation, preparing also to live the Holy Year and the Jubilee of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Following Pope Francis’ invitation, we also want to be in our communities (family, religious community, work, ..) pilgrims of Hope and rooted more and more in the Heart of Jesus, just like St. Frances Xavier Cabrini.
“With his first coming in the humility of the flesh he brought to fulfillment the ancient hope and opened the passage to eternal salvation; when he comes again in the splendor of glory we will be able to obtain, in the fullness of light, the promised goods that we now dare to hope for, being vigilant in waiting.”
(from the Preface of the First Sunday of Advent)
Letting ourselves be inspired by the Word of Jesus that accompanies us in this beginning of Advent, we want to be witnesses of hope to one another as a Cabrinian family, as we did during the last years.
On each Sunday of Advent, a representative from each province/region answered the questions:
What does Advent mean to you? How do you try to live it with hope in your life?

We, Missionary Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, are a missionary Congregation of Catholic women present in 15 countries.
Our Institute was founded in 1880 by a passionate and bold woman – Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini – whose one desire was to communicate, demonstrate, and make known the Love and Mercy of Jesus Christ through tangible acts of love, mercy and justice.
