St. Joseph Church was festively decorated for Christ's birth. Beautiful hymns were sung at all Masses, especially at the midnight Mass led by Mark Roszczewski and the choir. The altar servers were recognized for their service and presented cross necklaces blessed by Father Kryzysztof and Father Gabriel. This year, the altar servers made ornaments to decorate the tree on 'St. Joseph's side' and the Children of Mary decorated the tree on 'Mary's side' by the navity.
"And it came to pass, when the angels went away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, 'Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing that is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us." Luke 2:15
May everyone have a blessed Christmas season.

Robert W.: The birth of Jesus is important to me because the Savior that everyone was talking about was born.
Tyler B.: Jesus’ birth means holy lives.
