Dear Notre Dame Parish Family,

This coming Advent, let's make room for Jesus!

As we prepare to enter this beautiful season of joyful expectation, we invite you to join us for a very special evening at Notre Dame:

PREPARE HIM ROOM

An Advent Night of Prayer, Praise & Inspiration!

On Wednesday, December 2, we are excited to welcome two incredible guests to Notre Dame:

Josh Blakesley Band – Worship Leader

Since the release of his debut album in 2003, Josh Blakesley has become a prominent voice in Catholic Christian music as an artist, composer, producer, and worship leader. His music is rooted in a desire to lead people into deeper prayer and action. His songs and recordings include You Are the Light, Mass of Restoration, Beatify, and Consumed. Josh has led worship at Steubenville Conferences, World Youth Day events, the 2024 National Eucharistic Congress, and numerous international gatherings. He currently serves as Director of Music at St. Faustina Catholic Church in Fulshear, Texas.

Tanner Kalina – Guest Speaker

Tanner Kalina is a Catholic evangelist, author, and speaker who has dedicated his life to sharing the Gospel and helping others encounter Jesus Christ. A former actor, Tanner now speaks to tens of thousands of people each year, including youth, parish leaders, and clergy. He is the co-founder of the Saints Alive Podcast on Hallow, author of two books, and presenter of several faith formation video series with Ascension Press. His passion for evangelization and sharing the beauty of the Catholic faith makes him an inspiring voice for the Church today.

To get a preview of Josh's music and Tanner speaking, take a look at the videos below!
