Are you looking for a way to prayerfully prepare for Christmas and enter more deeply into the spiritual meaning of Advent? The US Conference of Catholic Bishops have prepared a program of Lectio Divina, a simple method for meditating on the Sunday scriptures during this season in preparation for the celebration of the birth of Jesus.
Lectio divina is a form of meditation rooted in liturgical celebration that dates back to early monastic communities. It was a method practiced by monks in their daily encounter with Scripture, both as they prepared for the Eucharist and as they prayed the Liturgy of the Hours.
