The Prince of Peace at Christmas | Presiding Bishop Elizabeth Eaton

Bishop Eaton recalls the Christmas message from the angels: “Glory to God in the highest heaven and peace to God’s people on Earth.” She reminds us that when we greet one another with the sign of peace, “we share the peace, the love of God, and as we do, we know that God has reached from heaven to earth and in the Prince of Peace is sharing God’s peace with us.”
