The Peace of Soon and Near

In this third week of Advent, our expectations rise more as the Lord is near. But how far is near? What does soon mean? Fr. Dan Riley, OFM, shares this reflection to describe the need for the peace of soon and near in our lives. We need peace in our lives. Take time to be quiet together or alone. To learn more about Mt.
