'Whoever has seen me has seen the Father' (Jesus, in John 14:9)

O radiant light, O sun divine,
Of God the Father's deathless face,
O image of the light sublime
That fills the heav'nly dwelling place.
(From an early Christian hymn)

Word of the Father, now in flesh appearing.

We are close to our brothers and sisters who suffer due to war: let us think of Palestine, Israel, Ukraine. Let us also recall those suffering from poverty, hunger, and slavery. May God, who took on a human heart, make our hearts more humane!

Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to the city of David called Bethlehem … to be registered with Mary, who was promised in marriage to him, and who was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for her to deliver her child. (Luke 1)
