Saint John the Baptist & Saint Mary of the Lake CCW (Waunakee, WI)

Mahdere Bekele • January 19, 2024

Members of the local CCW hosted our first “Advent by Candlelight” on the evening of Saturday, December 9th, 2023 in order to prepare our hearts and minds for the Feast of the Incarnation, as well as for Christ’s Second Coming.  CCW hostesses designed beautifully set tables and luscious desserts to create an elegant atmosphere for our faith filled guests to enjoy.  This meaningful gathering included time for learning, reflection, sharing and singing with a focus on Four Holy Habits – frequent confession, reclaiming Sundays, regular mortification, and daily prayer.
