The Light Has Come Into the World
During these twelve days of Christmas, we celebrate the profound truth that God is not distant or merely approaching;
He is now among us.
In Jesus, God steps into human life with all its beauty and struggle.
He brings a light that no darkness can overcome and a hope that grows wherever it is welcomed.
The reflections below offer a starting point for discovering how the presence of Christ can bring peace, courage, and joy into your everyday story.
Thank you for visiting.
