Happy New Year!
The big news this week is that Eagle Nest Lake has been opened for ice fishing. This is the best and most popular lake for ice fishing in New Mexico. It is well-stocked with rainbow trout. This year it has been more heavily-stocked than previous years.

By Fr. Glenn Jones:

Few things are as heart-warming as the squeals of delight from your children and grandchildren on Christmas eve and morn as the little ones open their presents, or the anticipation for a dinner with many of their favorite food. Many of you grandparents will relate to the scripture which says: “Grandchildren are the crown of the aged…” (Proverbs 17:6), and “Lo, sons are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. / Like arrows Read More
