3rd Sunday of Advent

Brothers and Sisters,

The example of John the Baptist teaches us at least two things. First, that we alone cannot save ourselves; only God do we find salvation. Light of life and secondly, that each one of us, with service, consistency, humility, with the testimony of life – and always with the grace of God – can be a shining lamp and help others to find the way to meet Jesus.

Pope Francis
