Christmas for the Unhappy
By Elizabeth A. McGuirk

Christmas, Santa and a Boy's Dying Wish...
By Carlos Espinosa
I'll admit it. I'm a sucker for Christmas stories. Every year, there's a heartwarming story or song that really touches my heart (to the point where I find myself quietly sobbing and people coming up to me to see if I'm alright). The Christmas Shoes by NewSong comes to mind.

St. Lucy's Day
By Sue Hallett
Our lives are not perfect. In fact, they often contain heartache and sorrow. And, of course, our individual problems pale in comparison to the suffering of the world itself. It’s hard to figure out how an individual can make much difference in resolving war and political conflict.

Sympathy for the Devil and to Next Year in Cuba...
By Carlos Espinosa
On Christmas Eve 1978, as my great grandfather was in his final stage of life, we were gathered at my cousin's house in Chicago. Most of the family was there, at least those of us living in exile. I remember because that was the winter the great blizzard hit the Windy City shortly after we left.
