Laurence Freeman OSB is a Benedictine monk of the Monastery of S. Maria del Pilastrello, Lendinara, Italy, in the Benedictine Congregation of Monte Oliveto. He is Director of Bonnevaux and of The World Community for Christian Meditation.
Christmas is a time of gift-giving. A gift is not just a cheap novelty, but something that brings newness, renewing our relationships and changing our way of being. If we can learn to freely give and accept a gift, we can enter into a new kind of relationship. The newness of the birth of Jesus is God’s incarnational gift to us, a gift we learn to accept through the practice of meditation.
This event is online and free.
