Dear Gene

Thanks be to God this Advent season for all the ways in which the ongoing ministry of John the Baptist is working in our midst to prepare the way for more of Jesus in our hearts!

With gratitude for you,
Fr. Rob and Mo. Lyn

Remember Las Posadas!

Candlelight, singing, grumpy innkeepers, a warm welcome, tamale dinner, and a pinata filled with surprises. What more can we say?

Las Posadas is a wonderful experience of fun, community and spirituality. Come join us Sunday at 6 pm right here at Emmanuel!
