| 0:22.3 | Hey there, Spouts. |
| 0:23.6 | Today is Monday, December 11th, 2020. |
| 0:28.4 | This week on the Catholic Spouts podcast, we are talking about the second week of |
| 0:33.2 | Advent and the virtue of peace. |
| 0:35.8 | But before we get there, please join me in praying the prayer that |
| 0:39.8 | we're learning this month in the B.S. St. Kids Club, Family Prayer for Advent. In the name of the |

| 2:10.9 | dangerous. They traveled for many days and they would have had to camp alongside this path |
| 2:17.3 | with many other people as they traveled. |
| 2:21.1 | Now the Bethlehem candle also reminds us of God's promise of universal peace through Christ. |
