Thought for the Week!
“From home to home and heart to heart, from one place to another. The warmth and joy of Christmas brings us closer to each other.” Emily Matthews
Scriptures for the Week!
And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.
“The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him.”
Prayer for the Week!
“O sweet Child of Bethlehem, grant that we may share with all our hearts
in this profound mystery of Christmas. Put into the hearts of men and women this peace for which they sometimes seek so desperately and which you alone can give to them. Help them to know one another better, and to live as brothers and sisters, children of the same Father. Reveal to them also your beauty, holiness and purity. Awaken in their hearts love and gratitude for your infinite goodness. Join them all together in your love. And give us your heavenly peace. Amen.”
Pope John XXIII
