Merry Christmas…Happy Holidays

The Christmas feeling…spirit…whatever you want to call it…Finally got to me at mass this afternoon. After Communion, as I was leaving the alter rail, there was a gentlemen at the stairs and he wished me “Merry Christmas” For some reason, that moment, just clicked with me. I hope it does for you too today.

Thanks.

Check it out.
