Here was the card from our dear bishop, Bishop Larry Silva -- just in case you didn't see it here at the Catholic Hawaii website.

Bishop Larry's message this Christmas is found in the Hawaii Catholic Herald.

Christmas is Still Here!

I had to be someplace for some very good reasons. Family is the main reason, and how wonderful that is! Taking time off from many parts of my life to be with family is not only refreshing; it prepares me for the tasks ahead of me that are new, challenging, and certainly worth my time.

Christmas isn't over yet! Hurray!

My good friends at the Pauline Books and Media Center in Honolulu have the best Christmas greeting for all of us -- especially for our priests who are their good friends!

Merry Christmas, everyone! May all our priests be blessed more than ever as they face the coming new year full of challenges and hope. May they always experience the joy of Christ in all their ministries, and personal life.

Our Most High Priest be praised now and always!
