As we move through Advent toward the celebration of the Lord's Birth at Christmas, I invite to reflect on how Jesus has been close to you this past year and the light He brings into our lives.
The presence of Jesus brings light that helps us see ourselves nad others in a new way, as children of God. May the newborn Christ Child bring you and your loved ones the light you need to discover again the love and peace that are His gifts to us.
In our Lord,
Father Mike McGovern
