2025 - 2025 CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL OF LIGHTSNOVEMBER 22, 2025 - JANUARY 4, 2026

REJOICE IN HOPE "THE NIGHT IS FAR GONE, THE DAY IS AT HAND",,Dear Friends and Visitors,
“Rejoice in Hope! [...] The night is far gone; the day is at hand.” (Rom 12:12, 13:12)
This is the message we, the Missionaries of Our Lady of La Salette, joyfully share with you during the 2025–2026 La Salette Christmas Festival of Lights.
Though the world is filled with beauty, we also carry the weight of uncertainty, division, and weariness. And yet, Christmas arrives, quietly and powerfully, with St. Paul’s invitation: “Rejoice in hope” (Rom 12:12). This hope isn’t rooted in our circumstances, but in God’s promise made flesh in Christ, our hope, light and peace.
The image on our cover says it all: people from different cultures joyfully gathered around the Christ Child. It reflects both the mystery of Bethlehem and the spirit of our Shrine. Each year, it welcomes pilgrims from around the world, all drawn by the same light, the same hope. Moreover, our growing multi-ethnic communities (Spanish, Portuguese, Filipino, Haitian, Franco-Canadian, Italian, Vietnamese, Cape Verdean, and Afro-American) make the Shrine a prophetic living sign of Christ’s message for all: unity, peace, and joy.
As you walk through the lights, may you encounter more than beauty: may you find Christ’s hope shining for you and for the world.The Missionaries of Our Lady of La Salette.

Through this program, we will explore the themes of "Dilexit Nos" together, deepening our devotion to the Sacred Heart and discerning how Christ’s love speaks directly to our own lives, families, and communities. Come encounter the Heart that has always loved us, and be renewed in hope for the world.

From Mary's apparition in the fall of 1846 up until modern times, the La Salette mission has been to help all God's people live a spiritually fulfilling and grace-filled life and we sincerely hope that this is what you find here at La Salette.
The La Salette Experience includes the National Shrine of Our Lady of La Salette and the La Salette Retreat & Conference Center. Whether you attend one of our many Masses, receive the sacrament of Reconciliation, walk our sprawling grounds, attend one of our programs or retreats, or are simply perusing our expansive religious article store, we hope that you feel surrounded by Mary's presence and that you too are charged with the same mission she gave to Maximin and Melanie that day on the top of the Holy Mountain:"Make my message known to all my people."
