“The Word became small”

Damascus, 10 December 2010

Esteemed Sir,
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
At Christmas, this merciful incarnate love manifested itself. “The Word became small... ‘He became a child, so that the Word could be grasped by us’” (apostolic exhortation Verbum Domini, no. 12, 30 September 2010). To hear, see, touch, contemplate and love. It is the fullness of love, life, light, power and joy.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2011.

Monsignor Joseph Arnaoutian Armenian Catholic Bishop of Damascus
