The Fourth SUNDAY of ADVENT

CHILDREN'S CHRISTMAS MASS
In the Gospel for the fourth Sunday of Advent, Saint Luke tells us of Mary's visit to Elizabeth, who is also expecting a baby. This baby will be John the Baptist. When Elizabeth hears Mary's voice, she feels the baby inside her jump for joy. Elizabeth is moved by the Holy Spirit. She is thrilled that Mary should go to see her and that her own baby is leaping for joy. Most of all, though, she shows her delight and wonder that Mary is so blessed by God, not only because of the baby she is expecting, but because she believes what God tells her.
Mary, shows us how to believe and accept God's will. When God told her she would have a baby who would save the world, she said, 'Yes'.
Children's Christmas Mass
At last, Christmas is here and we can put the baby Jesus in our cribs.Saint Luke tells us how Joseph and Mary set out to Bethlehem, where Jesus is born. An angel tells the shepherds on the hillside to go to see the baby lying in a manger. We come to his birthday mass dressed as characters from the Christmas story.
Happy Christmas everyone! God Bless Us All and help us to remember the message of love which Christmas brings, as we take home our cribs.

Well done...yes it was St. Francis who thought of making the Christmas story come alive for people by creating the sort of crib we know today.
Who are you...could you tell Father John, so Frankie can send you a Certificate of Merit?
