"Only by harnessing the gifts in any situation as so many God-given levers will we see the capacity to respond."

FEAST OF THE HOLY FAMILY OF JESUS, MARY, AND JOSEPH
Share the wealth of family
For some of us, this late in the holiday season, the burden of family may just be starting to express itself. (Will this houseful of relatives ever leave?) Yet many also find themselves away from their homes or families for reasons not entirely under their control, ranging from military service, education, employment, illness, divorce, loss, or estrangement. For them even a slightly used and tarnished family would be better than none at all. On this sixth day of Christmas, share your heart and home by inviting someone in to enjoy the gift of belonging.
