A Blessed Christmas!
The Solemnity of the
Holy Family reminds us that God chose to come into our world through the human
family. Jesus, Mary and Joseph lived
through all the various experiences of human life and revealed the capacity
that God has placed in our very nature to Love.
They lived together the mystery of Divine Life in a human manner.
As we celebrate the
Feast of the Holy Family, we are reminded that God continues to act in our
world through family life. The family is
the fundamental building block of human society. When we are able love at home, we are able to
go out to bring the Love of God into the larger world.
Today we offer
blessings of individual families with the hope that such a blessing will serve
to form us as a parish family who are one in mind and heart as we invite others
into God’s Family. We also pray for
families who are burdened and who do not find unity at the present time, that
they will find in us the support they need that reveals the Love and Mercy of
God.
As we say farewell to
2017, we seek to enter into a new year with zeal and faith, aware that God
loves us and that He has entrusted us with a mission. May our St. Timothy Family serve to witness
to the power of God to bring light and healing into our world. A blessed New Year to all!
