On Thanksgiving Day Holy Redeemer celebrates a special morning Mass for the holiday. Quite frankly, I am always surprised by the large turnout and I certainly enjoy that there is little else (tree decorating, Paschal fire preparing, etc.) that needs to be done for Mass on this day.
We spent much of the rest of the day watching football, reading and napping. Then, in the evening, Walter and I joined the Holy Cross men at UP for their Thanksgiving feast. We enjoyed all the usual Thanksgiving fare, and were even treated to the Gallagher family apple and pecan pies . . . this year courtesy of Mary, not Fr. Jim, Gallagher. While we most certainly missed Jim's company, I am happy to report that Mary's pies were a resounding success!
