Christmas Novena

Kenrick-Glennon Seminary holds a Christmas Novena annually during the Advent season in order to foster excited anticipation of Jesus' birth on Christmas Day. The novena is open to the public, and begins at 7:30 p.m. in the St. Joseph Chapel every night. Refreshments are served after the Novena is finished on both Wednesdays (Night 2 and Night 9), and Saturday.

As the Novena progresses, the homilies will be posted to the Kenrick-Glennon Seminary Podcast. You may also click on a homilist's name below to listen to his homily:
