It's Christmas Time



It is Christmas, the happiest day of the year...

It is a magical time for the innocent children who still believe that Santa Claus will deliver presents to them because they have been good.

It is a stressful time for adults, who rush about doing last minute shopping and preparing for the usual feast.

It is a time to be grateful for all the blessings that we have been given throughout the year.

And it is a time to think about the less fortunate who are suffering during these holidays, still struggling with the results of the Great Financial Crisis, the impact of foreclosures and the depth of bankruptcy.

Spare a prayer for the poor mother who has no money to buy a present for her child.

Help someone who has to spend the holidays in the bitter winter cold.

Be generous and donate what you can to those who are less fortunate than you.

It can be money, it can be your time and it can even be a simple kind word for your fellow-man in need.

Have a blessed Christmas - may you all be blessed with peace, prosperity and happiness during the holidays.
