In those days of Mary and Joseph, Nazareth was a place where “everyone knows your name. It supported a limited amount of people from one small well of water. Mary is visited by the angel Gabriel with news that she would bear a son! Mary’s joy was not limited by the improbability that such a thing could happen in Nazareth. In this simple, tight-knit community of limited resources–a place where survival required interdependence with your neighbors–Jesus would be raised and grow into the teacher he became. This week, we wonder: what joy can we glean from the simplest of moments, the simplest of gifts, allowing ourselves to savor this season, pregnant with possibilities?
