Introduction: Saint. Thérèse of Lisieux
Gospel: Lk 1:67-79
Saint of the Day: Christmas Eve Midnight Mass, Pope Benedict XVI, 2011
Marian prayer : Robert Louis Stevenson Christmas Blessing
Loving God, Help us remember the birth of Jesus,
that we may share in the song of the angels,
the gladness of the shepherds,
and the worship of the wise men.
Close the door of hate
and open the door of love all over the world.
Let kindness come with every gift
and good desires with every greeting.
Deliver us from evil by the blessing which Christ brings,
and teach us to be merry with clean hearts.
May the Christmas morning make us happy to be thy children,
and Christmas evening bring us to our beds with grateful thoughts,
forgiving and forgiven for Jesus' sake.
Amen.
