Every child

“The woman bore a son and named him Samson. The boy grew up and the LORD blessed him; the Spirit of the LORD stirred him.” (Jgs 13: 24)

All fatherhood comes from God. Every child is a sign of God’s presence among us. Parents are God’s co-workers and receive a special blessing to take care of God’s life in their child. With every Advent we go back to the unique vocation received by mankind to maintain a strong relationship with God. We are invited to be protectors and facilitators of this relationship which comes to our children through our relationship with Him.

“O Root of Jesse’s stem, sign of God’s love for all his people: come to save us without delay!” (Gospel Acclamation)
