Reflections of Family and Faith
"The family that prays together stays together." - Venerable Patrick Peyton
We are here because we have heard a promise of peace and we have faith that its day will come. We have heard a rumor of justice and we have faith that its day will come. We have heard a whisper of hope and we have heard that its day will come. We have heard a hint of love and we have faith its day will come. We have heard of the birth of the Christ-child and we have faith this day is here! Welcome to Christmas and Merry Christmas to one and all!
