Advent 2017

11th December

Luke 1:39-41
Mary Visits Elizabeth

At that time Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill country of Judea, where she entered Zechariah’s home and greeted Elizabeth. When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.



"Who am I?" she cries with a loud voice. "Who am I that the mother of my Lord should come to me?"

And so it begins. Now more than one is aware of the Advent stirring in the world: there are two who know and each confirms the glad anticipation of the other. Two is a communion. Two is necessary. Two is a perfect circle: one to speak of it, one to hear. The word is real. Christ is coming!
