At Christmas we celebrate the great mystery that God became flesh and dwelt among us. We call this mystery the Incarnation (“to take on flesh”), and it changes everything.

The mystery we proclaim at Christmas is that God – the very God who created all things from nothing and who is light itself – took on our humanity in order to transform us. Through the birth of Jesus, we have seen the face of God and have become nothing less than God’s own children.

With joy in our hearts, let us join together in adoration of our King and Savior.

Wishing you the love and blessings of Christmas.

Share God’s love with an Angel in need.
