    • Merry Christmas!

    The Donkey & Ox were prominent figures at the Nativity because Our Lady had commanded them to venerate Our Lord by keeping Him warm with their breath.
    And also, because Holy Scriptures foretold the Ass & Ox would recognize the Messiah, while the jews would not.

    "Some preachers will keep silence about the truth, and others will trample it underfoot and deny it. Sanctity of life will be held in derision even by those who outwardly profess it, for in those days Our Lord Jesus Christ will send them not a true Pastor but a destroyer."  St. Francis of Assisi
