Lk 1:57-66, 80

John is born. His conception and birth are miraculous as is his father Zechariah’s regaining his power of speech once naming his child as the angel instructed. The people are in awe of these events, perhaps aware of a deeper meaning that will one day be revealed.

St. John, you prepared the way for the coming of God’s son. Pray for us that we prepare well the way for his return.
