While helping Carrie prepare a totally bodacious Christmas dinner (yes, it is the day after Christmas, we celebrate it three different times currently) I received my weekly email reminder that I am running behind on submitting my weekly bulletin message. So, I have decided that this week, there will be no real message.

One thing before I go, this week there will be quick presentations by our committee chairs and some sub-committee chairs, at our lunch meeting, about what they have going on and how it is progressing.
