The Reverend Robert B. Hadzor shares a reflection.
Pray
Lord, as we await the coming of the Christ child in Bethlehem, may we prepare our hearts to welcome all people that come before us. Help us to shine a light into places of darkness. Help us to do what we can to respond to the injustices of our world. Help us mend all that is broken. Amen.
