Dear parishioners and friends of St Sharbel Mission,

May the Glorious Birth of Our Lord Jesus Christ awaken in us new faith in the truth of Emmanuel, God-with-us.

Let us always remember that Christmas is solely about God fulfilling his promises, saving his people, coming to us — as one of us — in Jesus. The truth can be so easily missed: Christmas is nothing but Jesus. And if Jesus is not in Christmas, then Christmas is nothing at all!”

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to all of you!
Fr. Elias Khalil
