David Dorey from St Joseph's Parish Dannevirke

For those of us over 21 (Maybe more than twice)
the commercialisation of Christmas can be a little difficult.
As Christians and Catholics we should remember our habits of good behaviour.
In 1 Corinthian we read:
"If I speak with the tongues of men, and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as a sounding brass or a
