Dear Editor: I have attended a Epiphany concert at our Lady of the Snows in Floral Park on Sunday January 6th at 3 p.m. I found it to be a most profound experience. It was billed with the title, “A Victorian Christmas.”

A Child Shall Lead Them
Dear Editor: As a child who had recently made my first confession, one Saturday the priest asked me what Christmas present I would want to give to Jesus. When I answered “pants,”this was met with complete silence from the priest’s side of the confessional!
What Would Mary Think?

No Fan of Latin Mass
