As Christmas approaches, Pope Francis focuses on the gift of motherhood and “the miracle of life” at the Angelus for the Fourth Sunday of Advent.On the Fourth Sunday of Advent, just a few days before Christmas, Pope Francis invited the faithful to recognize God’s presence and God’s love for each one, especially “in the gift of every life, of every child carried in its mother’s womb.”
The Holy Father based his reflection on the encounter between the Virgin Mary and her cousin, Elizabeth, the mother of John the Baptist – a meeting “of two women rejoicing at the extraordinary gift of motherhood.In St Peter’s Square, too, the Pope said, there are expectant mothers and mothers with their children. “Please, let us not remain indifferent to their presence,” he said.
Amidst the joyful celebrations of Christmas, the Pope said, “Let us remember to express the feelings of joy every time we meet a mother who is carrying a child in her arms or in her womb… so that every motherhood may be blessed, and the Name of God thanked and exalted in every mother of the world.
And he concluded with the prayer that “Mary, blessed among women, might make us capable of experiencing wonder and gratitude before the mystery of nascent life.”
