Longing for the Prince of Peace

While Facing the Horrors of War

An Advent Art-Slide Lecture

Presented by Fr. Leo J. O’Donovan, S.J. This lecture will reflect on how 20th century artists protested war in the bloodiest of all centuries and prepared us to hear the repeated calls for peace by all the recent popes, from John XXIII to Francis. The images will try to help us realize more concretely what peace requires.
