(This podcast is a re-play of Season 4- Episode 74.)

One night in 1306 an Augustinian Friar received a vision of the Madonna who’s radiant beauty overcame him. The Virgin Mary spoke to him saying she was the “Mother of Help” or the Madonna of Rescue and came to his town Sciacca to aid and assist the towns people.  She asked him to get up and spread the story of his being healed.

What’s continuing from Jesus Christ’s big day is the spreading of this joy on earth. It comes subtly as the growing spirit of Friendship…Kinship…Pleasantries…new beginnings…overlooking hurts…mending fences are taking place in this holiday.

Here’s some family fun stuff to do for the rest of Christmastime:

How about going to that museum or art gallery you have yet to visit?

Take some Christmas cookies to a neighbor or just stop by- say “hi.”

Build a snow jump with the kids and watch them go wild!

Make hot chocolate and sit around the Christmas tree enjoying the quiet time.

Read aloud a Christmas story and/or the Christmas card verses that came in this year.

Watch the holiday movie “Elf” as a family.

Gather everyone for an evening drive to take in the lights of Christmas.

Have someone play Christmas tunes on the piano…everyone gather around.

Play a board game or a card game on the dining room table…

Go visit an elderly friend or teacher.

Give some time to helping someone in need

Volunteer for a day with “meals on wheels” or “feeding the hungry” programs.

Go to one of the “dinner and a movie” theatres.                            

Make it a family activity for a New Years brunch

Lunch at a new restaurant or get a “cup of joe” with old friends.

Part 2- The reality is Santa coming to town Christmas day has become disconnected with the Joy of the Birth of Christ coming into the World on the Big Day. The Good News is that it doesn’t take much effort to overcome in this replay of Season 3.

The Season of Christmas comes when the Macy’s Day Parade ends at twelve o’clock noon, on Thanksgiving Day.

If you’re wary, not to mention weary of having holiday music and incessant prodding to buy foisted upon you, it’s OK…

You are entitled to feel pushed and perhaps even cheated by the wizards of sales who’ve planted themselves upon what is suppose to be an earnest time of transitioning. This is the time for reflecting on where we are and to begin considering where we are going in the next year.

So as wintertime settles in, now is the time to be preparing for the miraculous birth of Jesus coming into the world and to consider how much God loves us by this offering. And it’s the beginning of the preparations by St. Joseph and the Virgin Mary for their journey to Bethlehem that comes to mind as well.

This holiday season, I’m re-playing my podcast mini-series on ways to EXTEND YOUR CHRISTMAS. Because it’s in the way we make time, post Turkey Day that will help enhance our family and friend’s holiday experience. So take a listen and consider taking time to partake in pre-Christmas time activities through Advent readings or the Nativity Fast.
