As we celebrate with pageant and carols, we remember the holy night when our Lord was born in Bethlehem. Christmas Eve calls us into the mystery of the Incarnation — light shining in the darkness, grace dwelling among us.

On Christmas Eve we stand on the threshold of Divine surprise — in the stillness of waiting, we remember that God enters human history not in pomp, but in the fragile humility of a manger. It is a day of light breaking into darkness, and hope renewing ancient promises.
