The Shepherds after encountering the child Jesus returned glorifying God. They have seen and experienced God's faithfulness. The Shepherds teach us, that, the end of the year is about gratitude towards God for his mercy and faithfulness! Mary treasured all things in her heart. We learn that ending the year is the beginning of a new year so we should entrust our future into God’s hands. Each of us is invited to make a crucial choice to begin this year with a new heart, by choosing to let go our past wounds, resentment, hatred, and deciding to bless, to forgive, to speak life rather than bitterness, to love, to serve without counting the cost and rejoice in the Lord.

Welcome 2026 with great faith, hope and everlasting confidence in the Lord.

Jesus I trust in you!
