12th Day of Christmas

Let the King Cake parties begin! Of course, I don't know how many King Cakes they 'll be making in New Orleans this year. I may find out soon, because I will be going to New Orleans next week! My major superior gave me permission to spend a little time closer to my family, able to visit, help (help our local convent, too) and also (God willing) find some sunshine after so many weeks of winter darkness in Chicago.
The picture is one I took this evening of the Christmas tree in Daley Plaza, reflected in the courthouse. I thought it was fitting for this 12th day of Christmas.

God bless your voyage a New Orleans. May it be an experience of healing and renewal for all with whom you come in contact!

A trip there may be in my near future too. Our parish is planning to partner with a parish on Canal Street and I am on the steering committee. We decided we'd like to go and spend sometime with the parish rather than just send "stuff." Planning was put on hold with the holidays, but I am imagining that as we move closer to Spring we'll head down for a few days.

God bless you,
Lisa
