Our last week leading up to Christmas was full of "Love and Service."  We baked Christmas cookies for the poor of Milwaukee on Tuesday.  On Wednesday, we packaged them on small paper plates and sealed them in ziploc bags so that we could hand them out the the guests at the Open Door Cafe at the Cathedral of St. John.

On Thursday we had the opportunity to visit the Cathedral and tour this magnificent church.  After the tour we served lunch at the Open Door Cafe and handed out Christmas cookies as the guests finished their meals.

On Friday we watched a wonderful Christmas movie called The Ultimate Gift.  It is a fabulous movie that teaches an important lesson about the most important "gifts" of all- love, life, friendship, and more! Have a blessed Christmas and a wonderful New Year.
