The Nativity Fast and Feast

16th day of the blessed month of Hathor - 28th day of the blessed month of Koiahk

In the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, One God, Amen.

The reading recommended for the Nativity Fast and Feast (Hathor 16 - Koiahk 27) is "The Nativity of Christ New Covenant" by H.G. Bishop Youssef. This book reflects on the importance of the Incarnation of the Word.

It has a series of articles as we journey from the genealogy of our Lord Jesus Christ to His glorious birth. As we read each chapter, we are reminded of the love God has for mankind.

An excerpt from the book states:

"As we recall His amazing humility and endless love for mankind; remembering St. Paul’s instructions to us to embrace at all times, God’s mind at His incarnation."

The greatest gift that each of us received this season is the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. He came to show us that hope, love, joy, and peace still exists. We are continually reminded of this throughout this book.

As the Holy Nativity approaches, may we prepare our minds and thoughts for the truest gift ever; our Lord Jesus Christ Himself.
