Christmas Eve

Merry Christmas everybody. Hoping the season brings goodwill, peace in your hearts and homes for those who have lost their loved ones, feeling God's embrace, and hoping for moments of stillness and reflection that we are here today, that even with our differences, we are one and the same from God. Merry Christmas. "Let's hope it's a good one."

Exquisite 9pm mass this evening with the boys who slept on me almost the entire time until Callum woke up with pins and needles as he was sleeping on me and Reuben was leaning on his legs and I was ready for the huge screams. Just what you want in the front (disabled) row. I believe I've never heard such beautiful music than was sung this evening by the choir and the soloists. Oh for the joys of Hollywood entertainers on our doorsteps and in our church.

As ever, what a build up it's been to the big day. Just remember it only really begins on the first day of Christmas, tomorrow.
