Second Sunday of Christmas Post Communion (Redub)

All praise to you,

all-loving and all-giving God.

You have shown us your humility

by Mary bearing you to birth and mothering you.

Grant that as we are born again in you,

that we may experience your

mothering embrace of our lives and our world,

on earth as it is in heaven.

Amen.
