1 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi[a] from th

east came to Jerusalem 2 and asked, Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews?

We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him. 3 When King

Herod heard this he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him.

4 When he had called together all the peoples chief priestsand teachers of the law, he asked them where the Messiah was to be born.

5 In Bethlehem in Judea, they replied, for this is what the prophet has written:

6 But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least

among the rulers of Judah; for out of you will come a ruler who will

shepherd my people Israel.[b] 7 Then Herod called the Magi

secretly and found out from them the exact time the star

had appeared. 8 He sent them to Bethlehem and said,Go and search carefully for the child. As soon as you

find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.

9 After they had heard the king, they went on their way,

and the star they had seen when it rose went ahead of them

until it stopped over the place where the child was. 10 When

they saw the star, they were overjoyed. 11 On coming to the house,

they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed downand worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented

him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. 12 And having been

warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route.

A Christmas MessageThe grace of God has appeared offering salvation to all. In the midst of the darkness, lightshines. A child is born. And has no longer has dominion. The mystery of Christmas Mass is thathe light of the world shines in the midst of the darkness. The eternal message of Christmas islight in the darkness, hope in a world of despair. The first communication of the good news given to lowly shepherds. By the time of Luke were people of questionable character wh

lived mostly on the margins of respectable society. The poor and the lowly have always beeGods most favored people. Let us become humble and wise as the shepherds and wise m

Wishing you Merry a Christmas.

Fr. J oy and Fr. Roy.
