I am grateful to the various sites from where I picked up ideas for the write-ups, images and videos that happened to touch my heart while preparing myself and my children on this Advent journey in faith .. I have tried giving credits where I could.. I have tailored the materials accordingly to suit my needs. My sincere apologies if I have not given due credit in all places. - Sabrina D'Mello
Feast Of The Holy Family
The devotion to the Holy Family was born in Bethlehem, together with the Baby Jesus. Jesus showed his love and respect towards his parents by his obedience and humility. Today’s celebration demonstrates Jesus respect to the fourth commandment, whilst also highlighting the loving care that His parents exercised in His keeping. Today lets pray for unity in families.
On the
6th day of Christmas my true love gave to me...
Six
Geese A-laying
The
six days of creation that confesses God as Creator and Sustainer of the world
(Genesis 1).
Let’s
watch the Scriptures Luke 2:15-20
Reflection
After the
host of angels return to heaven, the shepherds with full faith in what they
just heard, decide to hastily leave their flocks behind in search of the Christ
Child. They go to Bethlehem and find Him wrapped in swaddling cloths and
lying in a manger—just as the angel had said. How incredible was it to look
down into the face of the mighty Son of God? The shepherds share the angel’s
words with Mary and Joseph and everyone they meet. They turned out to be the
first evangelist. All who hear their words were amazed. They were waiting
for the Messiah but they did not expect it to be in this manner. And Mary
stores up their words and ponders them deep inside. A "mother"
treasures all those things when it comes to her child. Now, years later, she
pulls them out of her memory and shares them with Luke, and with us.
Christmas
Symbol :
Bows and
Ribbons
Colorful
ribbons and bows placed on the gifts remind us of the bond of love. They teach
us how everyone is bound together in brotherhood and peace.
The
ribbon symbolizes our Christian commitment to be bound to everlasting
goodwill.
Prayer
Lord, as
I wrap gifts this Christmas, let me remember that You have bound us all
together in love. We are all called to be united in love especially during this
season of Advent. May You be forever praised! Amen.
Let’s sing along with this carol -
All I want for Christmas
