“The Word became a human being,
and full of grace and truth lived among us.
And He, who came on that first Christmas morning,
gently reminds us of another way,
a pilgrim way,
not distant form struggles, but in the their midst;
a way mysteriously calling us
to listen to the cries of the wounded of the world
and to help bear their burdens:
a way which, amazingly,
renews us with the wonder of love,
rekindling in our hearts
the possibility that we can move forward with hope-
a people of compassion,
committed to sharing.”
