Luke 2:6-7
Question for Reflection:
How many place settings will be on your Christmas table? How might your meal be shared with those in need?
Prayer for the day:
Master of a simple stable, we are in the midst of preparing feasts unheard of in the days of your birth, meals fit for a king. Join us in feasts, celebrating your reconciling ministry on this earth. May our celebrations invite those whose fare resemble your humble birth, and may we proclaim together your royal feast which is to be shared with all humankind.
Amen
~ Josh Brockway, Director for Spiritual Life and Discipleship
