Parish News for the Christmas Octave

December 22, 2022 by James Elston in Weekly News

This Sunday is Christmas Day when we celebrate the birth of Jesus who is the Light of the World. In times of so much darkness we can place our faith in the Christ Child who draws us to him in love. Click here for the scripture readings.
