Christmas in Bend

St Francis of Assisi new church in Bend

Wishing all visitors to this blog a very Blessed Christmas and a Healthy and Peace-filled New Year, I share with you today a few images from my new home in Bend, two of them from my church, the other from the neighborhood.

It will be a busy 2 days for me, but happy to share the message of Christmas with my new parishioners and many friends I've not yet met. This is the 700th post on this blog, with close to 80,000 visitors and celebrating my second year on January 5, 2014. All the best.
