Weekend of 1/6 & 1/7

BACK IN THE DAY...

This weekend is the traditional day of blessing houses. In the very OLD days the village priest would come to your home, dressed in a black cassock and white surplice, to bless your home, and in return you could give him a chicken, or ducks, or breads or some offering which he would then share with the other priests in the rectory.  Today you have instead an OLD priest who lives with two dogs and has absolutely no need of ducks or chickens or any other live animals!   

Weekend of 1/13 & 1/14

THOUGHTS FROM FATHER...

STAY HEALTHY— WASH YOUR HANDS (as they tell us to) - cover your cough and sneeze,  and if you are Sick then Stay Home!!!   As a means of passing time count the days until Spring over and over again! Only 65 days until spring...
