Remember all those we have lost at Christmas time.
Many of us are acquainted with the paradox of the Advent and Christmas seasons – a time when we feel we are supposed to celebrate hope, love, joy and peace, and yet a time that can also be full of depression, sadness and grief. Our Blue Christmas Mass offers special recognition of the struggles that many people face during this season, perhaps especially so in this pandemic year. Its somber tone also testifies to the struggles of Mary, Joseph and Jesus that are often overlooked. Let us pray together as we acknowledge the struggles that we all face, while providing a safe place of rest, comfort and healing.
