      [continued from previous message]              bitter cold to the Catholic Mission House. It was the second day of a       Caring for the Wounded Heart Healing Group.       Stepping out of the biting wind, they pulled off mittens, hung up parkas,       and slipped off their sealskin winter boots. Their faces began to thaw,       meaning words could be formed again. One of the group posed a       question to the Facilitators.       "These 2.5 hour workshops are too short. Can we do 5 hours a day       instead? We really want to know all that Creator wants us to know about       our trauma and our healing."       Throughout the remaining sessions, the group shared deeply together.       They composed poems, wrote songs, acted in skits, and took part in other       exercises that helped identify, then express, the pain of their hearts.       A closing prayer was offered as the Healing Group concluded on the final       day, and people were free to leave. No one budged. For twenty minutes,       no one even uttered a sound. Finally, an Elder tentatively whispered,       "There is such a special presence here. We do not want to leave."       Creator's Word - Jesus himself - had pitched his sacred tent right there       in the room. And everyone knew it.       This group was reminded that Jesus is with us now, right here in our       midst. Perhaps you can sense him in this very moment. As you celebrate       his coming to dwell with us, may the eyes of your heart be opened to his       powerful presence - not just today - but throughout this next year. Merry       Christmas.              Written by Robin Abrol, Edmonton, Alberta, 2025       Executive Director, On Eagle's Wings              Conclusion:              Pray to the Lord and pray for Him to come into the Chaos of your world.              Pray to the Lord: "Dear Jesus, Your birth was revealed to the shepherds,       for You don't despise anyone, and You came to earth to love and save me."              Pray to the Lord and pray to be a selfless giver.              Pray to the Lord and pray not to be chiked ny the riches of this World.              Pray to the Lord and pray to seek The Lord's Wisdom.              Pray for Muslims and believers in Whitehorse and the Yukon to come together,       and for Muslims to find faith in Jesus Christ.              Pray for Muslims and believers in Yellowknife to come together,       and for Muslims to find faith in Jesus Christ.              Pray that believers in Iqaluit take up Jesus' command to love and reach       their Muslim neighbours with the Gospel.              - Pray for opportunities to show the love of Christ to Muslims around you       - Pray for, and offer generous hospitality to, those you know who are serving       Christ among Muslim people -       Romans 12:13 "contribute to the needs of the saints, practice hospitality."       - When you gather with fellow believers, remember to pray for Muslims       throughout the year and encourage them to also participate in 30 Days!              Pray that the Lord will open a door for the message for the Gospel       at every level of Society in your country.              Pray: Jesus, we glorify your breathtaking condescension!
