ADVENT

For the Restless Heart

Something beautiful is coming for Advent.

I've created a four-week Catholic prayer companion for restless hearts who want to grow closer to Christ this Christmas.

Be among the first to receive the details when Advent for Restless Hearts launches in a few weeks along with a first look inside the devotional.

A Four-Week Catholic Prayer Companion

Make room for Christ this Advent.

Every year, Advent seems to arrive before we're ready. Between work, family, Christmas shopping, and everything else demanding our attention, it's easy to reach Christmas wondering where the season went.

I created Advent for Restless Hearts to help us experience this beautiful season with a little more intention.

Rooted in Scripture and the traditions of the Catholic Church, this four-week devotional invites you to spend a few minutes each day in prayer, reflect on your relationship with God, and prepare your heart for the coming of Christ.

Whether you've been Catholic your entire life, you're finding your way back to the Church, or you're simply looking for a more meaningful Advent, there's a place for you here.

What's included:

  • Four weekly reflections inspired by the Sundays of Advent

  • Daily Scripture readings, reflections, prayers, and simple actions

  • Journaling prompts to encourage spiritual growth

  • A practical guide to preparing for the Sacrament of Reconciliation

  • Catholic Advent traditions and prayers to enrich the season

  • A beautifully designed, printable digital companion you can use throughout Advent

Advent begins November 29, 2026.

Join me as we prepare our hearts to welcome Jesus this Christmas.
