A NEW POLITY Advent Calendar

Advent is here again!

We're happy to share—for the second year in a row—the New Polity Advent Calendar, designed especially to help you love God, do penance, and serve neighbor—in sum, to lead a more postliberal life. Print off the calendar below or sign up to receive each day's tasks if you want email reminders.

Invite your friends and join us this Advent as we begin to build the New Polity.
