In this powerful Advent homily, Fr. Michael invites us to reflect on two essential themes: time and movement. As we begin the Church’s new year, we are reminded that Advent is not only about preparing for the birth of Christ—but also His second coming. With clarity and urgency, he calls us to live with purpose, focus our lives on Heaven, and use the time we have to move toward the heart of God. This is not just remembering Christmas past—it is a call to be ready for Christ’s return, personally and universally.
