Jenkins Nanovic Halls: Chapel of All Saints
“He has cast down the mighty from their thrones and has lifted up the lowly.” (Luke 1)
Our Advent pilgrimage today brings us to the Chapel of All Saints in Jenkins Nanovic Halls, home of the Keough School of Global Affairs.
Today’s reading from the Gospel features this powerful line from Mary’s beautiful Magnificat hymn, a triumphant song of praise to a saving God. God promises to heal a world in need of salvation, and Mary sees this happening in her own life with the arrival of her son. Each of us is a part of the work of bringing Christ’s healing and salvation to a world in need. Here, in the home of the Keough School of Global Affairs, Notre Dame students and professors work to bring Christ’s healing and justice to the world.
As we spend some time in prayer here in the Chapel of All Saints, let us meditate on this text from today’s Scripture and ask ourselves: how are we helping to bring God’s healing and grace to a world that is desperately in need?

Thanks for another wonderful Advent series with the chapels of Notre Dame. It is really appreciated during this time of awaiting the birth or Christ.
I am inspired by the young people who, by leading these reflections, bring beauty, healing and grace to all of us. Thank you.
Thanks for bringing us through Advent in such a spiritual and thought provoking manner. Thanks to all the students and those behind the scene who have made this possible. May you and all the members of the Notre Dame Family have a Blessed Christmas and New Year !!!
