Thank you, Father, for posting so timely and beautiful, heartfelt reflection. I hope there will be ten more years of your inspiring presence. Here in Florida, it is temperate. Take care out there in the wintery weather as the seasons return.
Merry Christmas Fr. Eric. Jack and I are there with you at St. Stephen If not in body but in Spirit. Our Dear Lord knows where our Hearts are and where our Love is. Thank you for your words of wisdom and truth. God's Blessings Always.🙏🙏🙏
I grew up Catholic many years ago in the States and we always went to Mass for Thanksgiving Morning or Eve. My parents and the parish kept us Catholic and our Catholic school created space for families to attend Mass Thanksgiving Eve. We were told it wasn't a Catholic Feast like Christmas but giving thanks and praise was part of our religion. So many great things from years ago, like the Angelus, can come back if we try. Ring the Bells!
Oh yes, they sure can. Hmm. We have bells not ringing. I need to get the system fixed and we need to get a real bell back in the tower. The original bell was given for the war effort in WWII.
Amazing beautiful all-encompassing Christmas Homily.
Thank you Father. 😊
Best Christmas homily ever!
