December 6th is the feast of St. Nicholas! When I was a child each of us hung a stocking on the mantle, above the fireplace.
| | | | | | | Dear John, When I was a child, each of us hung a stocking on the mantle, above the fireplace, the night before the feast of Saint Nicholas. To our delight, the next morning there would be candy or small gifts in our stockings. The feast of Saint Nicholas is celebrated on December 6 because early accounts say he was martyred on that day. If you want to find out even more about Saint Nicholas, check out our free online resource Saint of the Day. It is just one of the many free resources available from Franciscan Media to help people grow in their faith. Those resources would not be available if it wasn't for your continued support. Your donations provide comfort to people like Sallie, who says: "In this often overwhelmingly busy world, the daily messages from Franciscan Media not only inform, inspire, encourage, and educate, they allow me to stop, breathe, and reflect on what's most important. God bless the work and ministry of Franciscan Media." So, I invite you to keep the gift-giving tradition of Saint Nicholas alive today. Help promote our Franciscan mission of spreading the Gospel in the spirit of St. Francis. I assure you the Lord will bless us all. Thank you for the gift you are to Franciscan Media. Peace and every blessing, Fr. Dan Kroger, OFM (and Tigger) Publisher, Franciscan Media |
