A Snapshot of Christmas Happenings

For the past 39 years, St. Cuthbert’s Oakville has been selling Christmas trees to decorate the homes of many satisfied customers and as a fund raiser to support their parish ministries. What started as a small seed venture has blossomed into a major operation; this year the parish once again imported 600 trees from Nova Scotia. Photo: Lydia Rice
