An Advent Holy Hour at St. Rose Philippine Duchesne Catholic Church

In the midst of the busyness of the Christmas season, Advent invites us to slow down, quiet our hearts, and prepare for the coming of Jesus Christ.

Join us for a beautiful evening of Eucharistic Adoration, prayer, Scripture, and sacred music, featuring Fr. Dan Nevares, SJ, and Matt Ficarra.

Fr. Dan Nevares, SJ, is a Jesuit priest serving as Assistant Vocation Director for the Jesuits West Province. Ordained in 2022, he has served in both education and parish ministry and is the nephew of Bishop Eduardo Nevares, Auxiliary Bishop of the Diocese of Phoenix. Fr. Dan will lead us in prayer and reflection, helping us enter more deeply into the hope and anticipation of Advent.

Matt Ficarra, Music and Media Director at St. Rose Philippine Duchesne, will lead us in sacred music and worship, helping create an atmosphere of prayer as we encounter Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament.

Together, we will reflect on the hope, peace, and joy that Christ brings into a weary world. The evening will also include moments of silence and guided prayer, inviting us to set aside life’s distractions and open our hearts to the Lord.

Whether you are experiencing great joy, carrying personal struggles, or simply seeking a moment of peace during a busy season, this Holy Hour is an opportunity to rest in the presence of Jesus.

Come as you are. Bring your hopes, your burdens, and your longing for Christ. Prepare your heart for the Light of the World.

All are welcome!
