The month of January has flown by very quickly; I remember once thinking it was the slowest moving month in the year to finish, but goodness that is not the case anymore. Our emphasis during 2009 is Living in HD - High Definition -which means living with a Clarity of Purpose, Context of Faith, and the Colour of Christ in our lives...so how are you doing at that after month one ? Are you in HD ? How are we doing as a parish family after month one - well let’s see:
