I'M GOING HOME FOR CHRISTMAS - FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 50 YEARS!

       


I AM SO EXCITED! I CAN'T WAIT!

I will be celebrating the 6:30 pm Mass on Christmas Eve. 



My beloved parish church was built in 1855. The parish started in a log cabin in 1818. 
After a second log cabin church, the present church was built. 



Some of my best memories of Christmas were Midnight Masses when the choir sang "O Holy Night!" 



The way I remember it as a child. 



How it looked at my First Mass on May 17, 1970.
My parents are in the front row, left. My grandmother is behind them in the dark hat.
Some of my sisters and brothers are in the front rows on the right.   
Five of the priests are dead.
