The Gift of God: Preparing for the Nativity of the Lord

December 21, 2021 #Christmas, #Nativity of the Lord

As we are quickly approaching Christmas, I want to remind you of a beautiful talk in the library of God With Us Online by Fr. David Anderson called The Gift of God: Preparing for the Nativity of the Lord.

I invite you to take a little time in the bustle of the next few days to watch it and let the Church’s hymns for this holy season prepare your heart for Christ’s coming!
