Week Two | Peace

               Scripture Read Luke 1:46-47


               The second candle, also purple, represents peace.
               At Christmas we celebrate the birth of Jesus, who came to bring peace to
               the world. When Mary learned that God had chosen her to be the

               mother of Jesus, she was surprised and frightened, but the angel told her
               to not be afraid. Mary's faith and trust in God gave her peace.
               The light of Christ in our world can shine this brightly in you! How can

               you let Christ shine through you?


               Peace through Acts of Kindness:
                          •  Forgive someone who has been difficult.

                          •  Send a card to someone who is ill.
                          •  Do a chore without being asked.
                          •  Donate a book to a doctor's waiting room.




               Pray
               God of Light, help us become peacemakers in your world by shining
               your light brightly. Amen.
