Message 2013 -from Bishop
Francis Duffy
St Luke wrote “As for Mary, she treasured all
these things and pondered them in her heart” (Lk 2: 19 . . Sometimes our treasure is gone: bereavement
can leave us feeling empty. The absence
of family members who are abroad can leave our Christmas celebration
incomplete. Many people think about
Jesus in Bethlehem and wonder what this tells us about God and about being
human? It has to do with the treasure
that God is to us, the treasure that we are to God and the treasure that we can
be to each other. I hope that the message
of Christmas will us bring peace and joy and help us treasure what is
important. Happy Christmas to all.
