A Light in Dark Times
Every year the week before Christmas, St. Peter's Church in Purcellville, VA hosts a "Blue Christmas" service. The aim is to offer a message of hope and comfort to those who might not be feeling so holly jolly during the holidays.

Please Enter and Exit through the Revolving Door

Government-led rationing of health care inevitably invokes utilitarian criteria which cut against the sick and dying.
