It's one day to the 2nd biggest feast of the catholic church and the homily yesterday reminded us to focus on our own mangers then get caught up in all the shopping and food around. Of course there's nothing wrong with buying gifts for friends and family... not to mention eating. But the point was to stay awake to our inner mangers. Have we opened our mangers... our hearts... this season to those who don't have enough? Or are we taking away more from these people?

The Art Ministry spent five full days working on Holy Family's manger. Our concept was to keep it simple this year without the frills of sheep, shepherd, wise men or animals. Just the main focus on infant Jesus to remind parishioners what's important. Emmanuel! God is truly indeed with us! :O)
