This beloved "Christmas Novena", composed by St. Alphonsus Liguori (1696-1787), Doctor of the Church and founder of the Redemptorists, offers a profound spiritual preparation for celebrating Our Lord's birth. Through nine days of heartfelt meditations and prayers, the faithful accompany the Holy Family on their journey to Bethlehem, contemplating the mystery of God becoming man for our salvation.
St. Alphonsus wrote: "The sight of an infant naturally draws us to love it; therefore God willed to be born as an infant to attract our love." This novena helps us approach the Divine Child not with fear, but with tender affection, seeing in the manger the greatest proof of God's love for humanity.
