As we find ourselves wrapping up one year and beginning another, it seems appropriate to reflect on blessings and to give thanks. So, we offer thanks...for all of you who bless us with the gift of your presence, Sunday after Sunday; to all our ministers who go the extra mile by showing up when scheduled, and arranging their holiday plans to serve at our Christmas Masses; to our decorating "elves" who beautify our church and edify us with their handiwork; to our choir and Clive, who help us pray with music week after week and especially at Christmas; to all who were so generous to our weekly collection, our annual Christmas Appeal, and the special collections that keep popping up, and to the special needs of our parish. Thank you all so much! Peace! Fr. Mike
