This is father Charles Sikorsky, the president of Divine Mercy University, and I'd like to wish you and your loved ones and your families a very blessed and merry Christmas and a happy new year.

00:00:19.005 --> 00:00:22.065
You know, the Christmas season reminds us of two things.

00:00:22.285 --> 00:00:25.585
I think it reminds us of hope and it reminds us of joy.

00:00:26.125 --> 00:00:29.005
Hope because God never forgets about us.

00:00:29.005 --> 00:00:32.470
It's It's a reminder that God God always thinking about us.

00:00:32.470 --> 00:00:42.010
He sends his son to be with us to, become Emmanuel, God made man, and to save us from our sins, to give us a new meaning, a new purpose.

00:00:42.695 --> 00:00:50.875
And that brings along with it that hope, but also that joy, the joy to know and experience God's love and experience the love of Jesus Christ.

00:00:51.255 --> 00:00:53.575
Jesus Christ, the sinner of human history.

00:00:53.575 --> 00:00:56.850
Jesus Christ, the sinner of each and every human person.

00:00:56.850 --> 00:01:00.130
The answer to the big question, who am I?

00:01:00.130 --> 00:01:01.170
Why am I here?

00:01:01.170 --> 00:01:02.790
The answer is Jesus Christ.

00:01:03.090 --> 00:01:13.345
And so I just like to invite everyone this Christmas, in a special way to open your heart to the Christ child, to allow him into your life, to make him the center of your lives.

00:01:13.725 --> 00:01:25.345
And I think if you do that, you're gonna find joy, you're gonna find hope, you're gonna find true happiness, a happiness that endures through different trials, to endorse all the different aspects of life.

00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:28.540
So be assured of my prayers.

00:01:28.760 --> 00:01:31.740
Have a merry and blessed Christmas and a happy new year.
