Pastoral Reflections Institute is proud to present the first of many liturgical journals to help enrich your spiritual renewal through the teachings of our founder, Msgr Don Fischer.

This advent journal is separated into four sections, one for each week of advent. In the heading of each week you will find a scannable QR Code that will take you to a video on the Vimeo platform of Msgr. Don reading and delivering the corresponding homily with on-screen transcriptions, if you would like to follow along.

Next are the readings according to the USCCB with their corresponding references and Msgr. Don’s homily.

Finally, is Msgr. Don’s personal Closing Prayer and journal space for you to add your own reflections, notes and observations.

We hope this journal serves as a useful tool to enrich your spiritual journey and to nurture the awareness of God’s indwelling presence empowering you to live an authentic and compassionate life.
