It is Christmas Eve and we have an ice storm, I have a fractured thumb and a sermon to write for the 11 pm service. So of course I went out to take pictures. Have a blessed Christmas everyone!
O God, you have caused this holy night to shine with the brightness of the true Light: Grant that we, who have known the mystery of that Light on earth, may also enjoy him perfectly in heaven; where with you and the Holy Spirit he lives and reigns, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen.

Exqueeze me? Fractured thumb?!? Pray elucidate Fr Brady!
Had an hour and a half of great sledding (it was a sheet of ice on an inch of snow) and when I got back to the house I slipped. Go figure. Apparently it is a little bone below the thumb, in the wrist, that is impossible to do anything with. I was in a splint for three days but it got itchy and annoying so…I take lots of Ibuprofen and grin and bear it.
