This first week of 2025 has been one of a new year and a new place to work. I moved from one building to another and so far it’s working out OK. Let’s hope for some good days ahead. Grace and peace to us all good people.

It’s New Year’s Eve. Please be safe while having fun. Enjoy the night. See you in 2025.

Boxing Day, the traditionally British holiday recognized the day after Christmas, offers an extension of the festivities. People in countries like Canada, the U.K. and South Africa spend an extra day with friends, shopping or watching sports.
It’s origins come from a time during Queen Victoria’s reign when the rich used to box up gifts to give to the poor. Boxing Day was traditionally a day off for servants – a day when they received a special Christmas box from their masters. The servants would also go home on Boxing Day to give Christmas boxes to their families.
To all celebrating I hope it has been a good day of being with those you love and care about.
For many out there this is not a happy time of year. There are many reasons the joy of the season is muted due to realities that are ever present. To those who are struggling know you are seen and loved. May you find peace to get through the holidays. May God be with us all no matter our circumstances. Peace on Earth. Goodwill to everyone.
