Come Let Us Adore Him: an Advent/Christmas 24-hour Retreat

Fr. Gary Coulter, director of Good Counsel Retreat House, will focus on several of the people who invite us to enter into the Christmas story and enter into the Incarnation: Elizabeth and John the Baptist, Mary and Joseph, the Shepherds and Magi.

Knowing the busyness that surrounds the Christmas preparations, Fr. Coulter invites you to spend a day away from the bustle and noise, a time to enjoy God’s presence and listen to His voice. In addition to his reflections, he will provide opportunities to meet with a priest one-on-one, join in the Holy Mass, Eucharistic Adoration, and communal prayers, and thus prepare your heart for Jesus’ presence in our lives this Christmas.

Fr. Coulter recommends reading, and will use as resources, the books: Joy to the World by Scott Hahn and Jesus of Nazareth: The Infancy Narratives by Pope Benedict XVI.
