December 27, 2015 –Sunday within the Octave of the
Nativity of our Lord
We turn our attention toward Christ as King of Glory as well as toward Christ as a
little child. The Introit Antiphon and the Gradual sing “ The Lord is King, in
splendor robed.” the gospel tells how the “Child grew and became strong…, and
the grace of God was upon him.” The lesson tells that, through this Child, the Son
of God and our King, we have been made sons of God.

Respect Life
Spiritual Adoption
At 33 weeks your baby is 17 inches long
and over 4 pounds. The baby's nervous
system continues to develop rapidly. The lungs are almost
ready for the outside world. The baby's bones are now
hardening by changing from cartilage to bone. "Jesus, Mary
and Joseph, I love you very much. I beg you to spare the life
of (baby's name) the unborn baby that I have spiritually
adopted who is in danger of abortion. Amen."
