We are invited to delight in the starlight that led the magi to Jesus and to celebrate the “coming into being” of God that broke into the world. How are you being invited to “bring light to” your own life and the world?
If we consider our entire lives as a gift, how can we not feel called to “give away” the unique gifts that God has bestowed upon us, to build relationships, and to walk gently on the earth, all of which is also gift?
Sign up now to connect with the Jesuit network and learn how you can learn, educate, pray, and advocate for justice year-round.
