After a service at the churches the children go from house to house to gather offerings for poor children in poor countries. They are dressed as the three kings and carry sticks with stars on the top. At the homes they sing songs and recite messages of Christmas. At each house they paint the letters "20+C+M+B+14" which are for the Latin Christus Mansionem Benedicat (Christ bless this house). At the same time the letters are the first letters of the names of the wise men: Caspar, Melchior and Balthasar. Christmas Stories from German Culture. culture/liturgicalyear/ prayers/view.cfm?id=49

3 ECHOING MARY'S DECISION The angel Gabriel today confronts Mary with a mystery. The mystery of salvation in Christ is not a mystery that is solved, but a reality beyond our comprehension that we must choose to enter into. In the liturgy of the Eastern Church, everyone waits to see if Mary will enter into the mystery: God waits, Adam and Eve and all the souls of the dead who long for paradise wait, angels wait for new heavenly companions. And there is much rejoicing when her decision is "yes." We have less dramatic choices offered to us, but the mystery of our salvation in Christ is by no means "solved." We may understand it a bit better due to Mary's "yes." We may be a bit closer to it through the passion, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. But it still remains a mystery to which we all must give our own "yes." Soon we will be singing "O come, let us adore him." May our Advent prayer, our echo of Mary's "yes," continue then, so we may enter into the mystery of our salvation in Jesus Christ, God among us. Copyright (c) J. S. Paluch Co. Dla Boga nie ma nic niemożliwego O wierze rozmawiamy na różne sposoby. Jedni z mniejszą, a inni z większą łatwością. Problem w tym, że dużo trudniej, niż rozmawiać o wierze, przychodzi nam powiedzieć wierzę" Dopóki pozostajemy na płaszczyźnie mniej czy bardziej teoretycznych rozważań o sprawach wiary lub pytamy o życie innych i o to, co bezpośrednio nie dotyka naszego osobistego życia, rozmowa o wierze przychodzi nam w miarę łatwo; zresztą - kto wie - może jest to tylko rozmowa o religii... Prawdziwa rozmowa o wierze to decyzja, by - jak Maryja - pozwolić Bogu wejść w nasze życie i zmienić w nim dosłownie wszystko. Przekroczyć granicę niemożliwego. ks.
