[Diocese of Maryland] Reflecting themes of Advent, our online Advent calendar (available here) contains daily meditations on presence, rather than presents and waiting, rather than being weighed down by the stresses and concerns of our secular pre-Christmas season. The Diocesan Staff will “open” a window each day during Advent. Click on the open window to find a brief thought for the day. The full meditation can be read, and you can listen to a shorter audio version of the same message. These audio meditations are also available daily by listening to WBAL-AM’s streaming audio broadcast at www.wbal.com.

We invite you to take a moment each day to pause and reflect, turning away for a time from the busyness and business around us.
