Since almost 40 years this light connects us to the birth of Jesus which the Christians are about to celebrate. “Glory to God in the highest and peace to his people on earth.”, the angels sang at Bethlehem. This light is also a strong sign for the longing for peace in Israel, the Palestinian territories and all places of war and violence in the world. The light arrives at the Chapel for Europe and is welcomed with a peace prayer. From here it will be distributed to all communities and individuals who come to join into this worldwide network of hope for peace. Please bring your own lanterns. The light can also be obtained at the Chapel until the 20th of December on appointment. You can alos participate online using this link to the livestream.

Event Series Rorate Mass

Rorate Mass

Chapel for Europe Rue Van Maerlantstraat 22-24, Brussels, Belgium

Come join the Rorate Masses at the Chapel on Advent Thursdays early morning, at 7:00. Afterwards stay for sharing, breakfast and a nice cup of coffee/tea. In December on Thursday 5, 12 and 19 at 7:00. The “Rorate” Mass is an ancient Advent tradition that takes its name from the opening words of the Introit (which is an opening psalm or antiphon), coming from Isaiah 45:8. “Rorate, caeli, desuper, et nubes pluant justum, aperiatur terra, et germinet Salvatorem.” “Drop down dew, ye heavens, from above, and let the clouds rain the just: let the earth be opened and bud forth a Savior.” – Isaiah 45:8 A Rorate  Mass is traditionally celebrated just before dawn during the Advent as a devotion to the Virgin Mary. This Mass in honor of Virgin Mary is a beautiful candlelit Mass that begins in the darkness of early morning. The interplay of light and darkness as the church becomes progressively brighter with the sunrise symbolizes the coming of the Eternal Light, whom we await during the Advent season. What is the History of the Rorate Mass? The Rorate Mass originated in the Middle Ages as one of the many Advent devotions to the Virgin Mary. […]
