Shepherds and Angels

In our Gospel, the shepherds hasten to the manger to behold the Christ child. It’s a beautiful, idyllic scene. However, we can learn a lot if we reflect on this scene more deeply, making real the image we often see on Christmas cards. How did those shepherds respond to the invitation to go and see the Christ, and how are we called to respond this Christmas as well? You can read the reflection and sign up to receive our weekly newsletter at www.GodSpaceCommunity.com.  At God Space, you can come as you are. You belong here.
