1. A special word of gratitude to the teachers who prepared our students for 
       our Christmas Pageant/Childrens' Choir yesterday at the Noon Mass:
       Mrs. Kelly, Mrs. Torpey, Mrs. Picinich, Mrs. McKenna, Mrs. Quinn, &
       Mrs. Winski!  All participants did very well presenting this significant
       event in history to an attentive and appreciative congregation.  According
       to St. Irenaeus, "Because of His boundless love, Jesus became what we are
       that He might make us to be what He is."  (Also, if anyone found a set of
       keys at the Noon Mass, please call school/rectory/convent. TY!)
