ANNOUNCING a Novena to the Christ Child in preparation for Christmas
In the birth of Jesus, God comes to us and asks us to receive Him, so that He can be born in our lives and transform them and our world, by the power of His love. The Christmas liturgy also invites us to contemplate Christ’s birth against the backdrop of His paschal mystery. Christmas points beyond itself, to the redemption won for us on the Cross and the glory of the Resurrection. May this Christmas fill you with joy in the knowledge that God has drawn near to us and is with us, at every moment of our lives”. …Pope Benedict XVI
Join us for the Christmas Novena to the Christ Child beginning 9 days before Christmas on 16 December. Each day will feature a Scripture Reflection and prayer. Let us dispose ourselves to receive the coming Lord. With great desire, with joy full of hope, with a heart that is free and capable of great love, for after all, we are made in His image and likeness and He is love!
