Rejoice in the Lord always!
Again I say: Rejoice!
Let your kindness be known to everyone.
The Lord is near!

Phil 4, 4f. St. Paul to the Philippians –
opening verse on the 3^rd Sunday of Advent “Gaudete”.

With this saying my life becomes Advent,
because “The Lord is near!” all the days of my life
and will also help me to show it through goodness.

St. Vincent Pallotti tells me in this regard:
“By a cheerful and joyful face we can prove
that following Christ fills our lives with joy.” 

Sr. Ephrem
