Youngsters and their families were treated to a wonderful visit from Saint Nicholas, who shared stories of his childhood, his work, and his legacy before sharing a reminder to share with all.  After a treat for all of the kids, families enjoyed a delicious pancake breakfast.

Many Thanks to all who helped at the SACRAMENT OF THE ANOINTING OF THE SICK and the luncheon that followed. Judy White's chicken soup recipe was a big hit! Many thanks to Ann Walsh, Karen and Tess Fuller, and Joan Talbot for their set up and sandwich help. Linda, Gabby, and Jalyssa Ohl came just in time to give us all the added boost of help we needed. Our Connfirmation Candidates worked non-stop and did a great job. They were so kind and took the initiative to see that everyone was comfortable and well fed. The ceremony was lovely and the grace of the Sacrament flowed from the church downstairs to the hall and hopefully beyond - into the lives of all who were anointed with this wonderful sacrament of healing.  See more photos of the day here.
