<p>Each year the magic of Christmas breaks into our lives. All society seems trasnformed by the seemingly fairy-tale like quality of Christmas. But Christmas is lot more than a fairy tale, or an event for children. It is where God's promise of our salvation broke through into our darkness. God saves us as a baby. If we let this child touch our hearts and lives, we will also meet him as Wonder-Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father and Prince of Peace. His joy and peace will break into our darkness. And we will join in the song and joy of Mary this Christmas.</p>

2nd Sunday – The Baptiser in the Spirit

Hello there. I'm Fr Rajiv, a priest of the Diocese of Westminster, UK. These are my Sunday homilies. They were originally published on my blog, started over the first lockdown. These are just my personal reflections (you might find echoes of the saints and great preachers, ancient and modern, from whom I've freely borrowed!). I also apologise, the posts are auto-converted, and somewhat rough around the edges. You can reach me at rajiv.castingfire@priest.com. God bless.
