As I prepare to celebrate Midnight Mass I realize how appropriate that Our Blessed Lord was born in a place (stable/cave) appropriate for animals and not humans. This is because Our Jesus came to us as a LAMB in a town called House of Bread- Bethlehem. In the midst of our holy celebrations, do not forget the cross, the reason He came. Let us do for Him through others so that real joy will be born in our hearts. Do not be afraid of anything, human sickness touches us all sooner or later. Let us remember that whether we live or die- we are the Lord’s! God takes care of His Own. May the beauty of God’s love and the protection of His Holy Angels be upon you and all those you love. DOMINUS VOBISCUM+
