By Father Perry D. Leiker, pastor
"Advent is this incredible time every year where we put this right in front of our faces and say, 'Really, is this the world that our God wants? Is this the world that Jesus proclaimed could be?'" Father Perry tells us for the second episode of our Advent podcast, on the the Memorial of St. Francis Xavier, priest. "We have heard that we have the eyes to see. Look at it again. That's all you need to look at. The cross is the central figure of our faith, because it teaches by example that love can conquer hate."
