Christmas 1
Matthew 2.13-23Get up and go!
The Sunday after Christmas follows hard on the heels of Christmas Day so we offer some gentle ideas and activities for those hardy enough to arrive at worship.
Today's Gospel reading describes the massacre of the innocents and the flight into Egypt. As we continue to celebrate Christmas, we are reminded that Christian lifestyle does not constitute an invitation to stay the same. Like Joseph and his little family, we must get up and go.
