Cool Thoughts

Trees of Tradition

On Christmas Eve 1914, a miracle occurred in the midst of snow and death. At midnight, the Germans, Brits, and the French joined a Scottish priest as he led them in a Christmas mass. This was not an act of defiance, it was a communion of soldiers who chose to participate in a truce. These…
