Director's Note

After writing the director's note the first time, I had to go back and make sure that it was still relevant. So many things happened to our world this year, so many things have changed. Many people have been forcibly removed from their homes, lives, loved ones. Worlds.

It leaves one wondering what you can count on anymore, what is true and real. This Christmas season, it is my hope and prayer that you can reflect on what is real: The Christ Child who came to free us from the world and the strife that it can bring. I believe that God is the same yesterday, today, tomorrow, always. He still brings "Peace and Joy to Men and Women of good will."

We all pray that you will enjoy this Holiday Season with peace and good will.

Happy Christmas and a Joyous New Year,

- Ian S. Talbot
