The Bishop of Myra in Asia Minor is one of the most popular oriental saints. The spiritual and temporal needs of his flock were the first object of his pastoral care. This worker of miracles died in 342; his body was eventually enshrined at Bari in Italy.
As you can see from the pictures below, St. Nicholas visited Maria last night! She woke up this morning surprised, but very happy, to find her shoes filled with chocolate euros! We had Divine Liturgy today at noon, together with Steubenville, to celebrate the Feast Day.

Yum. St Nicks Day. I'm so glad my niece is learning of such wonderful Catholic traditions.
I think the bag of coins we got her will last until Christmas! (only because we decide how many she eats per day though, not she)
