A CROTON ON HUDSON CHRISTMAS TALE 2015

A note from Holy Name of Mary, Croton on Hudson--a quick read, photo at the end

Baby Jesus went missing from the Nativity scene in front of the Church on this snowy morning.

The police were called and a police report was submitted. This had happened before, back in 2012. We never got the baby Jesus back then, and had to purchase a replacement.

But this time was different... the baby hadn't actually been stolen.

It was 'relocated'.

Someone thought the Baby might need a break from hanging with the sheep, and would be happier in the arms of his 'godfather', a wise man who had come to leave Him a gift. (see photo).

The police were very understanding.

Blessings on the Epiphany and on Sunday: the baptism of the lord.

A much better outcome!
