December 5 was a joyous occasion over at the St. Martin de Porres Senior Center for the Diocese of Providence as they celebrated their annual Christmas party.
The afternoon was full of carols, a beautiful meal, and a special visit from Msgr. Albert A. Kenney, diocesan administrator. Msgr. Kenney told the seniors that their center is a “jewel” of the Catholic Church. He added that God has a plan for each one of them.
“Especially during this Advent season, our God is seeking to gather us together and lead us towards heaven. Because heaven is the goal, my friends,” Msgr. Kenney said. “And now with the celebration of Christmas in just a few weeks, we’re going to talk about the incarnation of Jesus coming into our world, the Son of God coming into our lives to change us, to make us more holy, to make us more faithful disciples.”
