Feast Day of St. Nicholas of Myra

Reflection

“The giver of every good and perfect gift has called upon us to mimic God’s giving, by grace, through faith, and this is not of ourselves.” ~ St. Nicholas of Myra

Prayer

Perfect giver,

St. Nicholas Day was for many of us as children, where we would put out our shoes in order to receive little gifts of joy.  True to this tradition, St. Nicholas was a man, a bishop of the Catholic church, known for his generous giving, not just to children, but to all those in need.  May we continue this tradition of giving to those in need, whether they are poor in finances, food, spiritual health or mental health. Allow our gifts to bring joy to them. Amen.

Call to Action

Celebrate St. Nicholas Day by doing a small act of kindness for someone in need.
