Christmas in Bogota's mission main house of Prayer + PICTURES

It has been a tradition for the last six year of my missionary life, to spend the time during the Christmas Divine Infant's novena in Bogota, Colombia. As I mentioned in the past, the Divine Infancy of Jesus is the center of my mission and spirituality. Through it the Lord Jesus has shown me the right path of my missionary duties.
The novena begins on December 16th and ends on the 24th at midnight mass. I do give talks on Divine Infancy some of the nights of the novena and have masses celebrated during the novena at the House of Prayer.
The Holy Manger of Bethlehem is the very womb of our Christian life. The most pure expression of love from God the Father. Simplicity and absolute humility reunites around the hay of the Baby Jesus' manger's bed. A God that created all and is capable of all lays His body on hay, the simplest and most elemental pieces of nature. It is so simple that it's so hard for the human eye contaminated with the esthetics of this material world, to see. God is perfectly visible and we are to strive for perfection every day so that one day we are able to perfectly see Him, in order to fuse our selves with Him eternally.
How much I would love to have every Catholic on earth get closer to the Divine Infancy of Jesus, so that He can teach all of us how to become little and how to die to self, a primary condition for achieving true Holiness.
If you have not done the Christmas novena this past Christmas, prepare yourself to do it next year. You can find the novena in my website.
May the good Lord Jesus pour on all of you the Graces of His Divine Infancy today and forever.

The Servants of The Holy Trinity from Toronto sent Christmas gifts for the children; they were donated mainly from a kindergarten where the main servant and founder works: Carmell Harrasum. May the Baby Jesus fill with love and peace each one of the benefactors of these gifts for the poor. It is easy to bring joy and hope to our brothers and sister in need. All we have to do, is to get together and love one another as the Servants of The Holy Trinity do every year for the ones in need.
