Advent signals the start of a new liturgical year. In the different convents and monasteries of the Carmelite Order, the Holy Infant Procession has been part of our tradition. After the First Sunday Eucharistic celebration, Sr. Maureen Paul carried the Holy Infant Jesus, in procession with the rest of the Community. The Infant will then spend a night with each Sister as part of the Advent waiting for Christmas.
What a sweet, beautiful and loving tradition. This is so moving. Jesus must be so happy to be so cherished. May each of you be blessed during your visit with the baby Jesus as He nestles into the mangers of your hearts. Love, Mama Jo
