MECC General Secretary¹s Christmas Message

 ³Glory to God in the highest heaven and on earth, peace among those whom
he
favors² (Luke 2:14)

In his message, Mr. Saleh highlights the realities of a broken world, the
grief and despondency in the people of good will everywhere, asking himself
how can we rejoice and celebrate when hostility and violence, suffering and
danger, fills peoples¹ hearts with anger and sadness. As we search for
deeper meaning to our lives, we join others in their prayers for peace
around the world, says MECC General Secretary, praying that every candle we
light, renews in us all, awareness of God¹s reconciling love, so that we
can
be the peacemakers and standard bearers of justice.
