Good evening, Mac, and a Blessed Lord’s Day to the MacNessa family.

Are you resting and recovering from the Thanksgiving festivities?

It’s been gently snowing for several hours and we finally have a couple inches of snow!! It’s beautiful outside with all the trees flocked for the first time this year.

Yes, resting! Our temps have been hovering between the low 20's to the low 40's - partly cloudy.

We still have turkey. :)

"Dia shábháil ar fad anseo!"

This is the Arabic character "nun" – the first letter of the word "Nazarene." I post it as my avatar in solidarity with people of all faiths suffering persecution at the hands of Islam. Many of them are members of the oldest of our Christian Communities, dating from the days of the Apostles. They endure cruel, merciless and unrelenting persecution. They are Orthodox and Catholic, Protestant and Evangelical, Coptic, Pentecostal, and Baptist. To the persecutors they, and we, are all "Nazarenes."
