“My Soul Proclaims the
Greatness of the Lord, and my
Spirit rejoices in God my Savior!
For He has looked upon His handmaid’s lowliness; behold, from now on
will all ages call me blessed. The Mighty One has done great
things for me, and holy is His name. His mercy is from age to age
to those who fear Him. He has shown might with His arm,
dispersed the arrogant of mind and heart.
He has thrown down the rulers from their thrones
but lifted up the lowly. The hungry
He has filled with good things; the rich He has sent away empty. He has helped Israel His servant,
remembering His mercy, according to His promise to our fathers, to Abraham and to His
descendants forever.” Luke 1: 46-55 Parish Offices will be
closed for Christmas beginning
Wednesday, December 23 until Monday, January 4, 2016
Have a Blessed Christmas!
