And so... A Happy and Blessed Christmas

 Our first Mass of Christmas began at 9.30pm, the next is Midnight, then the TLM at 9am, then 10.30am and finally 12.30pm; the first and the last Masses are celebrated by the Polish chaplaincy.
This the first time in four years we haven't had work going on in the Church over Christmas. The stonemasons finished the sanctuary and baptistery floors  yesterday and some of our good weekday Mass goers were polishing and dusting this morning.
The wonderful news is we haven't any money to do anything else for a while - God is good!
A Happy and Blessed Christmas
