After many days of preparation and many resolutions taken, today we celebrate the most sublime manifestation of our Lord: the birth of a child in a stable.
We ask the prince of justice and peace born tonight to dwell in our hearts wounded by the many tragedies in the world and most especially the one unfolding in the land where, more than 2000 years ago, the Nativity took place.
To you all who have been working for a better tomorrow for all those in need, I wish a Blessed Christmas/Joyeux Noël/Santo Natale.
