THE COMMUNITY PRAYER (in unison)O God,

we are so easily distracted.We go out of our way

to see the beautiful Christmas lights,but we fail to see the light of the world,the light that came long agothrough the birth of a child.

We hurry to finish our Christmas shopping,frantically seeking that perfect gift,but we have forgotten how to be stilland treasure the Gift we have been given.

Forgive our angry tempers.Overlook our impatience.Teach us to see the signs of our salvation

in the smiles of children everywhere. Amen.
