On this Christmas Eve Eve, we offer up a clip from our weekend Q&A from Dr. Emily Smith, Epidemiologist at Baylor University & your Friendly Neighbor Epidemiologist.
Dr. Smith is also the spouse of a Christian minister and offers a faith perspective on this COVID-19 Christmas Eve. Some highlights:
🎄Christmas is not cancelled, we need to re-frame it
🎄 Advent is a time of longing & the hope of what is to come
🎄 Be OK with the angst—it’s OK to cry and hope at the same time
🎄Christmas services and gathering with extended family are too risky right now
🎄The first Christmas was quiet and calm
