CHRISTMAS MESSAGE — My dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Kindly accept my cordial greetings and wishes of this festive season; Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
For the last four weeks, we had embarked on the Advent Journey leading us to the celebration of the birth of
Jesus Christ our Savior. The entire Scripture Readings of Advent time called upon us to ready our hearts and
minds for the Light – Jesus to shine into our lives.
Part of our preparation included the receipt of the Sacrament of Reconciliation; giving us a wonderful Spiritual shower and freeing us from darkness and the stain of sin. Let us all resolve to keep this Light shine in our
lives.
At the Crib, we see the great signs of Hope in the personalities of Mary and Joseph and the baby Jesus. Joseph and Mary were tasked with the parental care of the child Jesus. Mary and Joseph were the first Religious teachers and Instructors in the Faith.
Please present ad when paying, drinks excluded. Not valid with any other offers.
Despite the hardships of the time, like freeing to Egypt, poverty and many more, the family of Joseph and
Mary enjoyed perfect peace, love and joy. May this Christmas fill us with Joy and Hope to overcome our sorrows and anxieties?
Please pray for me for the time I will be for my vacation; leaving for Uganda December 29- 2014 and returning January 30- 2015.
Thank you very much for your prayers and wishes when I celebrated my 62nd Birthday and 33rd Ordination
Anniversary in the Priesthood. God bless you all abundantly.
Sincerely yours - Michael Mugomba
