Rejoice This Christmas Season

My Dear People,

Be Not Afraid

Angels are very much a part of the Christmas account in the Gospel. The lowly shepherds were greeted by the Holy Angels while tending their sheep. They were told not to be afraid, but to REJOICE. This angelic message is sorely needed today, especially with all of the challenges that lie ahead next year. Like Joseph and Mary, we must be prayerful and obedient, always ready to follow the Lord's Call. It kept the Holy Family from great danger and harm. Pray to have the hearts of Joseph and Mary. May God's holy protection come upon you and all of your families.

Like the Blessed Mother, may we be willing through our good stewardship, to carry Christ into the world.

Entrusting you to the care of Our Lady,
Fr. Mark
