Christmas Season 2021: Rejoice in Christ’s birth – Archbishop Farrell
In his Christmas Message, Archbishop Dermot Farrell of Dublin in Ireland, reflects on a God who is full of surprises and invites the faithful to reach out to those in need at Christmas and in this continuing pandemic.
“Surprise is the order of the day when God is among us. Today allow yourself to be surprised by God.”
The Archbishop says that as we contemplate the manger we realise “that our own journey to God is full of surprises."
“We continue to act non-violently in his name demanding an end to exclusion, violence and injustice."
Archbishop Farrell highlights that in the face of the current Covid-19 crisis, the Church continues to reach out to those who are suffering at this time.
“God calls us to be close to our suffering brothers and sisters,” he says.
