Introducing Emmanuel: An Advent Devotional. This daily devotional, written by Fr. Angelus Montgomery, CFR, and Sr. Karolyn Nunes, FSGM, invites you to encounter Emmanuel, the God who is with us, throughout the season of Advent. 

Each day is structured using the Read, Reflect, React structure found in many of YDisciple's studies for teens. Featuring reflections on the daily Gospels, Emmanuel is a catalyst for a deeper, more authentic life of prayer as we prepare for the coming of Christ at Christmas.
