“O marvellous exchange! Humanity’s Creator has become a human being, born of the Virgin. We have been made sharers in the divinity of Christ who humbled himself to share our humanity.”(Christmas Antiphon I)
We celebrate the gifts of the Christmas season: JOY, HOPE, and LOVE. JOY that we rejoice in the Lord, prayerful HOPE in Christ’s promises, and LOVE that we love God above all things and our neighbour as ourselves. It is during this time that we have an opportunity to shine the light of Christ’s birth into the gloom of our world and be sharers of His divine love with our family and friends. May this “marvellous exchange” be at the center of your Christmas celebrations and be continually reflected in your living throughout the coming year.
On behalf of Fr. Daniele, Deacon Marcel, and Kerry, may God’s grace bless you and yours during this Christmas season.
