Birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Micah 5:1-4; orRomans 8:28-30;
Matthew 1:1-16, 18-23

Of her is born the Christ

Read or speak slowly the whakapapa of Jesus. These are the “blood relatives” of Jesus; you are a “faith relative”. Remember how you first came to know Jesus. Let gratefulness be your prayer for the people, places and experiences that led you to an awareness of Jesus in your life.

I draw on strength from rising moon.
I draw on strength from Mary’s womb.
I draw on strength from tumbling waves.
I draw on strength from One who saves.
I draw on strength from kauri tree.
I draw on strength and learn to be.
