We offer thanks and appreciation to the many people who have given of themselves to ennoble our Christmas celebration! Special thanks to Charlene McElwee, our Liturgy & Music Minister, the choirs, musicians and cantors who make beautiful music all year long, but especially at Christmas, the liturgical ministers, to Kay Vine and the many people who clean and decorate the church, both inside and out, and all who help make liturgy “the source and summit” of our celebration. You have given both of your time and of your heart. A special word of thanks to Steve Greshem and his dedicated crew of workers and volunteers for their tireless work shoveling snow and ensuring safe access to the church! May God bless you!

SOCIAL ACTION IS CONTAGIOUS
January Collection
We are blessed with individuals in our midst whose ongoing efforts remind us to do our part to help others in need. The SUNDAY BRUNCH MINISTRY consists of a small group of people who gather on the last Sunday of each month to cook and serve a hot breakfast to about 150 of St. Malachi's neighbors. They also distribute clothing and personal care items if they are available. At this time of the year they are especially in need of MEN'S WINTER COATS, SWEATERS, HATS, SOCKS and GLOVES. Can you support this effort? A box for your donation is in the front of the church. For more information contact: Lois Westerkamp, (440) 331-3705 or Joyce Geib, (216) 521-4252 The Social Action Commission meets on the second Sunday of each month at 10:30, in the Church Hall.

| They
were overjoyed at seeing the star,
and on entering the house they saw
the child with Mary his mother. They
prostrated themselves and did him
homage. Then they opened their
treasures and offered him gifts of
gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Mt
