Lord Jesus, bless us and have mercy on us,

Fill us with your love and grace during the season of your birth.

Look with kindness upon us as we look with reverence to you

And flood our hearts with worship. Amen.

Happy Feast Day

The Holy Innocents

Feast Day: December 28

Patronage: Babies

The feast of the Holy Innocents commemorates the massacre of the male children, two years old and under, in Bethlehem, by King Herod who obtained information from the wise men who searched for the Christ Child. (Matthew 2:16-18) This massacre fulfills the prophecy by Jeremiah, that a voice in Rama was heard, of lamentation and great mourning, Rachel bewailed her children and would not be comforted, because they are not. They are considered the first Christian martyrs.
