"Have you ever noticed the brilliance of the starlight on a clear night in that last hour or two before the dawn? I have strong memories from childhood, being out with my dad on the bay, clutching the thermos and wondering at the vast night. That last hour of night is a time of great stillness, deep quiet, and subtle beauty. Those memories come to my mind each year as we enter the season of Advent."
In a recent commentary, Bishop Richard G. Henning, the new bishop of the Diocese of Providence
(RI), reflected on the starlight and quiet before dawn and their relationship to the holy season of Advent.
