What are you longing for this Advent? In this meditation, Fr Gavan reflects on the first of the O Antiphons, O Sapientia — “O Wisdom.” In this brief invocation prayed each evening before Christmas, the Church reveals Christ as the eternal Logos who orders all things “mightily and sweetly,” even in the hidden smallness of the Child in the manger. Through this ancient prayer, we explore what it means to recognise Jesus as true Wisdom and to ask Him to “come and teach us the way of prudence.”

What are you really looking for in life? In this meditation, Fr Gavan reflects on Simeon’s canticle, the Nunc Dimittis – “Now, Lord, let your servant depart in peace.” Holding the infant Jesus in his arms, Simeon knows his deepest desire has been fulfilled. Through this short passage from Luke’s Gospel, we explore what it means to “see” Christ, why so many distractions leave us restless, and how fixing our gaze on Jesus brings a peace nothing else can give.

What made Mary’s heart overflow with joy? In this meditation, Fr Gavan reflects on the Magnificat — Our Lady’s song of praise after the Annunciation. Her joy wasn’t rooted in honour or recognition, but in humility and wonder at God’s goodness. Drawing on Scripture and the wisdom of the saints, Fr. Gavan shows how the Magnificat reveals the secret to Christian joy: self-forgetfulness and thanksgiving. Learn how to pray with Mary’s words and let your own soul magnify the Lord.
