Being together

“Many hands make light work.” “Teamwork makes the dream work.” “If we all do a little, it adds up to a lot.” There are lots of ways to say it — but working together really does make bigger and better things possible. And, lots of times, working together makes it more fun, too. In fact, there are times made better just by our ability to be together, to be with one another.

This time of year is all about Christ’s Incarnation — Emmanuel, God with us. The child that Mary delivers comes to deliver us. Elizabeth’s baby leaps for joy at Mary’s presence because Christ is within her.
