MERRY
CHRISTMAS


We're going to take a day or so to spend with our families. There is a plethora of ethnic foods for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day meals as well as an abundance of spirits that I'll barely make a dent in before I become catatonic. (One 8 oz Coors or 1 glass of Bailey's put me out). We'll try to hit Midnight Mass this year especially after last year's fiasco they call the "Children's Mass" and if there is enough energy, we'll try to make the very last Christmas service on the morning of the 25th at the church I grew up in, St. John the Baptist on William Street in Pittston. That facility is being closed down in June. To all my contributors, readers, friends, critics, posters and participants, have the best holiday season you can. My hope is that it will be everything you need it to be. See you in a few days.

In the middle of all the hustle and bustle this Christmas season, take a few moments to remember those who have given us a great gift indeed...our freedom. We've added a Christmas tribute to our military at the 6th District Website...visit today and keep those who have sacrificed for our freedom in your thoughts over the holidays.
Have a Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!

Hi Dave,
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to you and the missus as well. I won't have to wish you writing material- It's out there! What I will comment about is your church closing. As part of the parish advisory council, low parish participation, high maintainence cost, and lack of priests forces the closures. It's a bitter, sad experence, closing a church that someone has gone to, and supported for a lifetime. The pastor is trying to do it with as much dignty and grace as possible, but there are still hurt feelings overall. And it won't be the last in the Pittston area, or the Scranton Diocese either. There will be a drastic closure of churches throughout the valley due to a shortage of priests.

WHEN WE RETURN, I'LL HAVE MY IMPRESSIONS OF MY EXPERIENCE AT THE LAST CHRISTMAS MASS FOR YOU AND EVERYONE ELSE.
