There is no lesson this week but I wanted to take this opportunity to wish each of you a blessed Christmas season! I've loved hearing about and seeing photos of your family Christmas traditions and those being launched this year. There is no due date so if you haven't sent yours there's lots of time!

Our next lesson will be for the weekend of January 10, so there's lots of time if you need to catch up!

RE4U Christmas Special: St. James staff has created a Christmas lesson that we invite you to watch. It focuses on the Christmas story and traditions that we observe. You can access it from our website under "recorded lessons". 

Christmas Concert Our traditional Christmas concert has gone virtual this year with performers being filmed at church.  It will be available on our website for all to watch. It will be a nice Christmas/Christmas eve activity and would also be enjoyed by seniors who need a pick-me-up!

St. James Family Virtual Christmas Card: St. James invites you to submit a family Christmas photo (old or new) to be part of a slide show that will be available on the website as well as shown before masses! Email your picture to christmas@sjnovi.net.

Christmas Masses will be spread over 4 days this year and registration is required. Go to stjamesnovi.org. for sign up and protocols. Mass will also be available on our website for those who have health concerns. 

I pray that each of you feels the love and joy of our Savior this Christmas season!

May God bless and strengthen your family!
