2010 Christmas Message from ELCA Presiding Bishop Mark Hanson
10-296-JB
"How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of the messenger who
announces peace, who brings good news, who announces salvation!"
Isaiah 52:7
When Jesus was born, angelic messengers broke the still calm of a
Galilean night to sing joyously and proclaim, "This very day in David's
city a Savior is born for you -- God's Promised One, your Lord." Glad
tidings of great joy! Common shepherds were the first and heartiest
heralds of the promised Savior's arrival then, and today the joy in
Jesus' birth fills every corner of this season.
