May the miracle of the incarnation of the Son of God once again make us realise that God is close to us and shares with us the hardships of our lives – said the President of the Polish Bishops’ Conference Archbishop Stanisław Gądecki in his Christmas wishes.

We publish the whole text of the wishes:

“May the miracle of the incarnation of the Son of God once again make us realise that God is close to us and shares with us the hardships of our lives. He is just waiting for us to come to Him with all that hurts and all that rejoices, and to lay it at the foot of the manger in Bethlehem.

May this holy time be filled with openness to God present in the little Child who is waiting for us to entrust ourselves and our families to Him, learning from Him to trust fully in the Creator’s eternal plan.

Have a blessed Christmas!”
