Verily, it is that time of year again. December has come and
with it all the joys of Christmas. But what is the real meaning
of Christmas? Is it the gifts under the tree, the lights in the
windows, the cards in the mail, turkey dinners with family and
friends, snow in the yard, stockings hanging in the living room,
and shouts of "Merry Christmas" to those who pass us in the
streets? Is this really Christmas? For many people, Christmas
is a time of sorrow. They don't have the extra money to buy
presents for their children, family, and friends. Many are
saddened at Christmastime when they think of their loved
ones who will not be able to come home for various reasons.
Turkey dinners may be only a wish and not a reality for some.
Yet, Christmas can be a season of great joy. It is a time of God
showing His great love for us. It can be a time of healing and
renewed strength. You see, Christmas is when we celebrate
the birth of the Christ child. God sent His Son, Jesus, into the
world to be born. His birth brought great joy to the world.
Shepherds, wise men, and angels all shared in the excitement
of knowing about this great event. They knew this was no
ordinary baby. The prophets had told of His coming hundreds
of years before ...

President Trump and First Lady Melania praises
"Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?
Published on Dec 2, 2017 - TheRemnantvideo
During the annual lighting of the White House Christmas tree this year, President Donald Trump made good on his promise to bring "Merry Christmas" back to America. He then doubled down by referring the Jesus Christ as "God" and "Our Lord and Savior". As the economy continues to soar and Hilary continues to sour, it's pretty difficult not to be a little hopeful this Advent. At the very least, we can all agree that our situation as Catholic Americans could be a lot worse this Christmas. Thanks, Mr. President. Merry Christmas indeed!

celebrate this time of year. The season also reminds us that the freedom we
enjoy as Americans remains one of our greatest gifts. To celebrate the start
of the 2017 holiday season, we surprised visitors at the Gaylord National
Convention Center in National Harbor, Maryland with a surprise performance
of "Dona Nobis Pacem" and "We Wish You a Merry Christmas."
This will jingle your bells guaranteed ...

‘Christmas Card’ Gen. Patton Gave US Troops May Be Manliest Ever Created
by Cillian Zeal
When then-President-elect Donald Trump announced Gen. James “Mad Dog” Mattis as his pick for secretary of defense, he told a crowd in Cincinnati, “They say that he is the closest thing to Gen. George Patton that we have,” according to RealClearPolitics. That was no small statement. Patton looms large over American political history, especially after George C. Scott’s masterful screen performance as the World War II general.
Few scenes in American cinematic history are as iconic as Scott, in character, pacing before the American flag and delivering a speech to his men. And yet, for all of Hollywood’s hero-making, the real man was even more of a legend — and this Christmas card proves just that.
During the holiday season of 1944, Patton’s Third Army was bogged down in its advance against the Germans. According to WND, Patton was delayed as he was trying to reach Bastogne, a town in southern Belgium held by 15,000 American troops but encircled by over 50,000 Nazi soldiers bearing down on it. Unfortunately, due to the weather, Gen. Patton didn’t have the air cover he needed to relieve the 15,000 brave American troops holding off the Germans.
That’s when he decided to rely on the power of prayer. Patton had Chaplain Fr. James O’Neill compose a card to be distributed to each one of the 250,000 troops under his command in the Third Army, and had all of the men pray this simple prayer:
“Almighty and most merciful Father, we humbly beseech Thee, of Thy great goodness, to restrain these immoderate rains with which we have had to contend,” it read.
“Grant us fair weather for Battle. Graciously hearken to us as soldiers who call Thee that, armed with Thy power, we may advance from victory to victory, and crush the oppression and wickedness of our enemies, and establish Thy justice among men and nations. Amen.”
On the reverse side, Patton wrote, “To each officer and soldier in the Third United States Army, I wish a Merry Christmas. I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty, and skill in battle. We march in our might to complete victory. May God’s blessings rest upon each of you on this Christmas Day. — G.S. Patton, Jr., Lieutenant General, Commanding, Third United States Army.” [...]

Santa’s Surprising Origins-A Christmas Classic Feature
by Rev. Austin Miles
Where did Santa come from? It will surprise many to learn that Santa Claus (as we know him today) came out of the church itself through the charity of a very devout and caring priest. Now bear in mind that this is a true, historically documented account. Approximately 200 years after the birth of Christ, a meeting of the elders of a little church in Myra, Turkey had just been called to order. They needed to appoint a bishop but no fitting candidate could be found. So great was the need that they decided to pray. [...]
