December 15 - 3rd Advent Sunday


Old Bible in St Nikolai Church, Halmstad, Sweden
(open at the book of the prophet Jeremiah)


In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
St John 1:1 (NIV) 
 
The word of the Lord came to me, saying, 
Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,
    before you were born I set you apart;
    I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.
 Jeremiah 1:4-5 (NIV)


 St Nikolai * Church, Halmstad 

* Saint Nicholas of Myra (15 March 270 – 6 December 343) was an early Christian bishop of the ancient Greek city of Myra in Asia Minor during the time of the Roman Empire. He is also known as Nicholas the Wonderworker and his legendary habit of secret gift-giving gave rise to the traditional model of Santa Claus.
