Advent Prayer

My little Lord Jesus, I love You and thank You for this Advent season. Please help me to understand all that You have done for me. Your loving mother held You in her heart and brought You into this world. Help me to do the same.

My loving Jesus, I choose You, this Advent, as my King and my God. Draw me close to You and help me to see my sins so that I can change the things that You want me to change.

Mother Mary, pray for me this Advent so that I may do all that God wants me to do. You said “Yes” to all that God asked of you. Please pray for me that I may do the same.

Come, Lord Jesus,

Come, Lord Jesus,

Come, Lord Jesus, come!

I love You, Jesus.


Amen.

December Virtue: Hope

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. (Rom. 15:13)

God helps us to work for a more peaceful world even when we feel discouraged.

Hope is the virtue of relying on God. It keeps us searching for true happiness and sustains us during hard times or discouragement.

Virtue Assembly and Sing-along

St. Christopher School will be celebrating the Virtue of Hope, led by the students in Mrs. Horvat's class, on Friday December 19th. Please join us in the gym at 9:00 am for our Virtue Assembly, followed by our Christmas Sing-along.

A Christmas Prayer

Eternal God, this joyful day is radiant with the brilliance of your one true light.

May that light illuminate our hearts and shine in our words and deeds.

May the hope, the peace, the joy, and the love represented by the birth in Bethlehem fill our lives and become part of all that we say and do.

May we share the divine life of your son Jesus Christ, even as he humbled himself to share our humanity.

Bless us and the feast that You have provided for us, let us be thankful for the true gift of Christmas, your Son.

Amen

Wishing You a Joyful and Blessed Christmas
