Initial Prayer
It is with joy that we announce the message of Christmas: God became man, He came to live among us.
God is not far away: He is close. Furthermore, He is “Emmanuel”, God-with-us. He is not a stranger: He has a face, the face of Jesus.
Let us pray that this Christmas the face of Jesus may be contemplated by all families and by all men on earth.
Day 7
“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”(Jn 1, 5)
Mary, along with Joseph, the shepherds, the Magi, and the innumerable multitude of humble worshipers of the newborn Child, that over the centuries, have embraced the mystery of Christmas; grant us the grace to let the light of this day spread likewise everywhere.
Let the light of Christmas enter our hearts, illuminate and warm our homes, bring serenity and hope to our cities, and give peace to the world.
May the light of the Child Jesus dispel all the darkness of our life and fill us with love and peace.
Closing Prayer
In the silence of that night in Bethlehem, Jesus was born and lovingly welcomed.
Who is ready to open their heart this Christmas?
Who watches, in the night of doubt and uncertainty, with a heart awake and in prayer?
Who awaits for the dawn of the new day, keeping the flame of faith lit?
Who has time to listen to His words and be fascinated by His love?
Christ comes to bring light to us. He comes to give us peace, too!
Yes, His message of peace is for everyone, it is for everyone who comes to offer himself as a sure hope of salvation.
