We begin the new year by finishing up some business from the old one, our final set of photos of your Christmas liturgies. We will also be doing one or more photoposts for Epiphany; a reminder will be posted during the week. In the mean time, our thanks as always to all those who sent these in - Evangelize though beauty!
