"The gifts of faith and freedom allow me and others to learn more about this child Jesus through the study of Bible and the teaching of the Church. With the presence of God's Spirit, faith and learning lead to love and the desire to imitate the self-sacrificing love of Jesus for all humanity."

"I pray that the Feast of Christmas will bring you the gift of knowing and believing in God's love and care for you and that you share that love with your family members, friends and neighbours. Let that love also flow out and express itself in care for the earth and in the desire to keep Bermuda beautiful, a desire that can also include the will to work and even sacrifice for the common good of all who call Bermuda their home."
