I hope each of you has a wonderful day. Outfit is actually from last night when we worshipped at the vigil mass but the evening was to wonderful to stop and post then. Whatever your faith tradition I pray this day reminds us of peace, hope, joy, love and the power in humble service for the betterment and salvation of others.

Good afternoon gentlemen, I hope that each of you had a wonderful Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. I know that there are some the might not celebrate this hot or some celebrate in other ways. Whatever the case might be I hope that you had a wonderful time to be with family, friends, and to reflect on what the holidays were about and what a year 2025 was. There was a lot of great times, and some disappointing times in 2025. But it is never too late to help others and to be a blessing to someone. I want to take this time to challenge and encourage all of you in this community. If you received presents and enjoy partaking of holiday feast. If you have left over form meals make a couple of plates and find someone in need and bless them. If you received clothes and you are replacing some of your wardrobe that might not fit, or might not be what you wear anymore, donate them to someone that is in need. And if you can’t find something find a shelter to donate to. Gentlemen, not matter how different or bad you think 2025 was, you are still here and you still have more than most people out there. And if you do not have anything to donate or offer, please find someone and let them know that they are not lost or forgotten. Pray with them, or give them a word of encouragement for 2026. Gentlemen, be that light for someone who might be lost in a dark and dreary world. Be that light of hope.
