Lord God,
Let your blessing come upon
us as we light the candles
of this wreath.
May the wreath and its light
be a sign of Christ’s
promise to bring us
salvation.
May He come quickly and
not delay.
We ask this through Christ
our Lord. Amen.
Jesus, the Light of the World, as we celebrate your birth … may we begin to see the world i n t h e l i g h t o f t h e understanding you give us. As you chose the lowly, the outcasts, and the poor to receive the greatest news the world had ever known, so may we worship you in meekness of heart. May we also remember our brothers and sisters less fortunate than ourselves in this season of giving. Amen.

financial support. Thanks to all who contributed to the Maria House/Teresa Shelter on
December 13. Money was collected to assist the needs of homeless women and children
in the Dubuque community.

Winter Solstice Hour of Prayer and Adoration Sunday, December 20th from 2-3 pm in St. Columbkille Church. The Winter Solstice signals a time of anticipation … a
time to prepare for the coming of the Christ Child. Bring your family and spend a quiet
hour in reflection and wonder of God’s goodness and glory. Hot cider and cookies to
follow in Presentation Hall. Sponsored by St. Columbkille Spiritual Growth Committee
A Family Perspective from the Domestic Church Core Team: Mary was
excited about her first pregnancy and rushed to tell her cousin. Sadly children are often
seen as a liability, “another mouth to feed” or an “obstacle to my career.” It is said
“Christmas is for children.” It is more accurate to say “Christmas is for adults to
appreciate the gift of children!”
