Our Advent Calendar --- Christmas Day --- the Nativity of our Lord

 Dec 25 – Christmas Day


All-powerful and unseen God,

the coming of your light into our world has brightened weary hearts with peace.

Call us out of darkness, and empower us to proclaim the birth of your Son, Jesus Christ,

our Savior and Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God,

now and forever. Amen.

       

John 1: 1-5

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through him, and without him not one thing came into being. What has come into being in him was life, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it.

 

"I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year."
