The Peace of Christmas

As the angels announced the birth of Jesus on that first Christmas Eve, they invited us all to come experience a peace not found anywhere else in the world. They introduced the birth of God’s Son who would bring us peace with God, peace with ourselves and peace with each other.
The message of Christmas brings such relief and resonates with so many around the world because it speaks of an all-encompassing peace we so desperately need.
