Come, O Come, Emmanuel! This season, join America Media as we prepare for the coming of our Lord with special daily Advent reflections. Like most things in 2020, this will be an Advent unlike any other. These short reflections, written by the staff of America Media, are meant to help you take a few minutes each day to reflect on the coming of our savior at Christmas. The reflections will be available in audio format in The Word podcast feed and in the written word on americamagazine.org.

We'll also share episodes from the new season of the "Imagine: A Guide to Jesuit Prayer" podcast every Saturday. The Advent edition of “The Word” starts on November 29 and goes to December 23.

Subscribe to The Word in Apple Podcasts, Spotify or your favorite podcast player and never miss a reflection. You can also sign up for America’s daily newsletter to receive the written versions every day in your inbox.

You can find all of the reflections, alongside other Advent resources, collected in one place here.

Light the candles, deck the halls and immerse yourself in these short meditations on the mysteries of Advent.
