Love can be defined as a strong feeling of deep affection.
Joy – Our Pets at Christmas
Joy by definition means a feeling of great happiness and pleasure. What better way to spread Joy than to share our pets at Christmas! Enjoy!
Candle of Peace
Peace is not something you wish for; it’s something you make, something you do, something you are, and something you give away. John Lennon

Joe Mallamaci – 173rd Airborne Division
Our final Veteran for the day is Joe Mallamaci. We called and interviewed him so he could answer a couple of questions for us. Instead of a question and answer, he went on and told us some special memories he had while serving in Vietnam with the 173rd Airborne Division in 1967.

Veterans Day
It’s hard to believe, but Monday is Veterans Day. The month of November is almost halfway done, and it seems as though we have so much to do before Christmas. However, we need to remember to thank those who have fought or are still fighting for our country. There are numerous ways we can observe Veterans Day – here are a few that we came up with!

We thought we’d share a prayer for All Saints’ Day.
Catholic Roots of Halloween
It’s always exciting when we discover a new parish or diocese to follow on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. A couple of weeks ago I began to follow the Diocese of Syracuse on Twitter. They have a hashtag that they use called #CatholicFactsFriday. Some fun facts are that Michelangelo is the most famous and accomplished Catholic artist in history, or 15% of hospitals in the US are Catholic hospitals, or even that the Vatican is 108 acres. One #CatholicFactsFriday that made me stop and think was that Halloween has Catholic Roots. Needless to say, I did my homework and discovered that it is true!
