Hope and joy in new life

In his Christmas message for 2024, Archbishop Peter A Comensoli focuses on the familiar, hopeful image of the Holy Family—‘a mother and father hovering attentively over their newborn child’—and how it invites us into ‘a promise that transcends time and place‘, and that has the power to transform our lives, our families and the world.

‘The Holy Family speaks to us of hope and joy in new life—to each of us in our own local families. The child points us to where peace can be found—especially for the world beyond us.’
