A Merry and Blessed Christmas to all!

“I heard the bells on Christmas Day, Their old, familiar carols play, And wild and sweet, The words repeat, Of peace on earth, good-will to men!” —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

As we gather around our family and friends this Christmas, let us all remember our neighbors who cannot go home themselves. Our compassion and concern will mean much to the hospitalized, the homeless, the convalescent, the orphaned and will lead us to the joy and peace of Bethlehem. Looking around the nation and the world with all its problems and challenges, keep in mind: “For it is only in finding and living the eternal meaning of the Nativity that we can be truly happy, truly at peace, truly home.”
