Merry Christmas to All!


Light one candle in the night.  Light one candle of hope;
hope for the world to calm its fear, hope for the news we long to hear,
hope in a child who will soon appear, Light one candle of hope.

Light one candle in the night.  Light one candle of faith;
faith that can heal a world in need, faith that can conquer hate and greed,
faith in a child who come to lead.  Light one candle of faith.

--Don Besig & Nancy Price “Candles of Advent”

Thank you all. It was fun to see all the responses this morning. It is a magnificent sight to see the Milky Way rising. But you need a really dark site away from city lights.
