"The Word Was Made Flesh and Dwelt Among Us" highlights the meaning and significance for each of us of the Incarnation, the reality of the Word of God being made flesh in the Virgin Mary's womb and living among us.

"Put flesh upon the reality" of our union with one another in the Body of Christ through participation in this free Advent reflection, held at several parishes throughout the Archdiocese on December 1 or December 15.  Each site will host a meal, a conference and an opportunity to participate in an outreach offering to our local sisters and brothers in need.
