An Advent Reflection: St. Luke鈥檚 Account of the Annunciation

Tuesday, December 1, 2026

During Advent, we celebrate the mystery of the Incarnation, that God assumes the beauty and fragility of our humanity in the person of Jesus of Nazareth. To enter that mystery, we will consider St. Luke the evangelist鈥檚 story of the Annunciation as presented in his gospel. The Virgin Mary鈥檚 great 鈥測es鈥� to God initiates the movement into the mystery. Join 天美传媒 Chaplain Rev. James Flaherty, S.J., as we reflect on how Mary helps us to respond to God鈥檚 invitation to us during this Advent Season. Henry Tanner鈥檚 painting of the Annunciation and the poetry of Denise Levertov will also assist us in the reflection.
