A blessed Christmas to all!
“And the Word became flesh and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a Father’s only Son, full of grace and truth.”
The Nativity of Our Lord Jesus Christ
December 25
On behalf of the entire parish, may your Christmas season be filled with joy and peace!
Included are some photos from Christmas Eve and Day at our parish. Our Christmas Eve service reached a landmark attendance of 110, including many members of Holy Apostles’! What a joy to praise God with a multitude of faithful on this most holy feast!
Please join me this season with reflections I will post on our website each day. You may find them on our homepage under Parish News.
With joy,
Fr. Michael
A Collect for Christmas Day
The Book of Common Prayer, 161
Almighty God, who hast given us thy only-begotten Son to take our nature upon him and as at this time to be born of a pure virgin: Grant that we, being regenerate and made thy children by adoption and grace, may daily be renewed by thy Holy Spirit; through the same our Lord Jesus Christ, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the same Spirit ever, one God, world without end. Amen.
