Cecilia Staubli our group mentor select some lecture that brings the real meaning of the Advent and Christmas How we can prepare our home , and family to these special time of the year.
We select some texts from byVictor Hoagland, C.P.
By praying, ourselves, we fulfill the desire we have as human beings to know the God in whose image we are made. Something in us wants to know God. “Our hearts are restless,” Saint Augustine says, “until they rest in you.” By praying, we rest in God. As our children learn to communicate with God, they too find this special place of rest.
Preparing the home for Christmas
Now
we'll stay awake
and make our house clean with the brightest things of red and green. And we'll wait for Jesus until he comes, We'll wait until he comes.
First
we'll put up a tree
all shiny and bright, with lights and balls to shine through the night.
Then build him a house
with a little bed,
a place high enough not to bump his head. Bring sheep and shepherds to see him new-born
,
and a cow and a donkey to keep him warm.
O
Good Lord Jesus, asleep in the hay, Bless all little children each night and each day. | |
