I agree completely. Living in a area that is so very dominated by religion, there are no real ceremony oriented services. An area church posted a banner, "Christmas Candlelight Service at 6:30". I was excited enough to consider going (until I noticed the time...candlelight service should be at midnight, not dinner time). I do miss the old churches in PA that performed beautiful ceremonies to celebrate the forthcoming day(s).

Please don't get me started on Black Friday..."There is a Mass for that"!

hehehehe Thank you for the laugh.
