“Felicem Natalen Christi!” “Christus Rex”
My friend Kathie in Indialantic, Florida, who wrote me that she would be at Midnight Christmas Mass tonight and as usual would be in tears when the priest carries the figure of the Christ Child up the church aisle to place in the Nativity Scene manger, can expect to find me standing there with her, if only in spirit.
This Christmas is a special one for Kathie as only weeks ago, she was taken seriously ill from toxins left by kidney stones.
My deepest sympathies to Kathie for her struggle with kidney stones - my middle daughter has been dealing with them for years, several times going into sepsis due to the infection she would get going into her bloodstream, nearly dying from it twice. The Lord has blessed her repeatedly - prayers that He blesses Kathie as well.
