This is a beautiful book to really help you to focus on what is important during the Christmas season. There is a section for each day of Advent and each section includes the lectionary citations for that day, a reflection from Pope Francis, and a prayer from Pope Francis. The reflections come from several sources of Pope Francis' teachings including his daily homilies. I have read through a few of the first few days of this Advent book and the words of Pope Francis are full of hope and joy.
This book would be a perfect way for a family to celebrate this season together, by taking a few moments each day reading the words of Pope Francis and praying together. I know I will be using this book with my family throughout the Christmas season.
