Advent Week 4

Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel, which means “God is with us.”

This Sunday begins the final week of preparation for Christmas: schools here on the island are closed and most businesses will shut down come Wednesday, at the latest Thursday midday. So much attention to this holiday. As we draw near to the great Feast of Christmas we too must heed the message: how shall we name Him? Will He be with us? We must make ready a place in our homes and in our hearts to receive

"God with us!"
