Today, St. Nicholas came to visit. . . We had a Divine Liturgy. We ate lunch together and heard about St. Nicholas' and the things he really did do when he was still in the flesh and then we saw him! We sang "Oh Who loves Nicholas the saintly" to him as he walked in and met with all of us.
Special thanks to Timothy Nick! As well as all who helped out with the event and the making of Saint Nicholas' outfit.
