Catholics in the Diaspora

The diaspora, "a group of people who live outside the area in which they had lived for a long time or in which their ancestors lived." For many reasons, Catholics have experienced separation from the place where they grew up, where their ancestors lived. They live in the diaspora. The ministry of Catholics in the Diaspora is focused on reaching out to these members of the family of faith, a community that is one with the great cloud of believers. Please journey with us.

Invitation, Healing, Advent Grace

We are in the second week of Advent. Invitations and obligations increase. In this time of rising obligation, how do we welcome all those we meet? How are we making our corner of the world ready to embrace the Incarnation? This brief clip grabbed my attention. Take a moment to listen and reflect upon this moving story. I hope it provides you an insight into invitation and healing in the time of Advent.
