6. “God’s way of promoting social
justice in this present age is to
increase the number of people
who pursue justice and

in Christ Jesus for good
works.”

shine, that we may be saved.
Psalm 80

committed, anxious but devoted
to you. Use us and our gifts for
your newness that pushes
beyond all that we can say or

15. ...an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a
dream and said, ‘Joseph, son of David, do
not be afraid to take Mary as your wife,
for the child conceived in her is from the
Holy Spirit. 21She will bear a son, and you
are to name him Jesus, for he will save his
people from their sins...

16. 22...All
this took place to fulfil what had been
spoken by the Lord through the prophet:
23 ‘Look, the virgin shall conceive and bear a
son,
and they shall name him Emmanuel’,
which means, ‘God is with us.’
Matthew 1: 20-23
