December 31 marks the end of a year on the eve of a new one. The Catholic Church celebrates also with a Solemnity of Mary, the Mother of God on January 1. Her yes brought us the birth of Jesus, the Incarnate Word, so we honor her unique role in God’s plan. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us.

Even before Halloween this year, I noticed some commercial “decking of the halls” around town. Traditionally, we Sisters of Notre Dame try to put in a somewhat solemn Advent preparation before we pull out all the stops for wondrous Christmas Day. However, joyful anticipation undoubtedly fuels celebration.
