Description

This Advent, pray like you've never prayed before!

Way of the Star: A Guided Advent Journal for Prayer and Meditation is a deeply immersive Catholic Advent devotional that teaches you how to pray with scripture, music, art, and imagination. Rooted in musica divina--prayer through sacred music--this one-of-a-kind Advent experience invites you into a richer, ever-deepening encounter with Christ from the first week of Advent through the octave of Christmas. Created by the Vigil Project, a collective of professional Catholic musicians dedicated to helping the Church encounter God through beauty, Way of the Star is more than a prayer journal. It is a scripture study, imaginative prayer guide, music album, and art experience woven into one cohesive Advent journey.

Organized around five central gospel stories from the life of the Holy Family, this guided Advent devotional leads readers week by week through

scripture reflections grounded in the Advent and Christmas liturgies;
original sacred music written and recorded specifically for this journey;
stunning original artwork that invites contemplation; and
companion videos seamlessly accessed through QR codes.

Together, the writing, music, and art help you imagine yourself within familiar Advent scenes:

Sit with Mary in the quiet of her room after the angel Gabriel departs.
Lean in to hear her conversations with Joseph.
Hear the gravel crunch beneath their feet on the road to Bethlehem.
Smell the stable as they settle into their makeshift shelter.
Behold the shining faces of the shepherds and Magi as they approach the infant.

Known for their excellence in creating devotional Catholic music that aids listeners in deep and personal prayer, the Vigil Project keeps a regular touring schedule that has brought them to hundreds of parishes and major events throughout the US and Europe.

This Advent, the Vigil Project invites you into a deeper encounter with the mystery of our Savior's coming--not only in the manger at Christmas but also in his transforming presence in everyday life. Perfect for personal prayer, small groups, parish study, and Advent retreats, Way of the Star includes free companion videos and original music from the Vigil Project, available at avemariapress.com > pages > way-of-the-star-resources.

Let the Vigil Project guide you through an imaginative and memorable encounter with Emmanuel--God with us--as you meet him anew in prayer during this season. This Advent, don't just prepare for Christmas--enter into it.
