Greetings from Bethelehem, the town of a twice yearly pilgrimage of our family! I must admit it is fun to say I am in Bethlehem, but really, it is my hometown and it is not in Isreal, but in Pennsylvania. The news is that my Nana is well and happy but tied to her house as her disability has really prevented this amazing 92 year old woman from treking around town as she used to do. However, she is one determined spirit and if she thinks she can make it out for a walk, she just darts out the door and goes. This causes some panic when the rest of the family can not find her, but I am always happy to see her outside and enjoying the good weather. That said, however, she almost never misses walking over a mile (uphill) to mass each morning. You could NEVER prevent her from doing that!

So, this little vacation to visit family is the reason I have not been updating the blog. We will be back late next week and I shall get back into my habit again. But for today, I pray for peace and love in all families.
