Festival of Lights at our Lady of Fatima Shrine

This evening Jim and I went to Our Lady of Fatima Shrine in Lewiston to see their festival of lights; all religious themed light displays keeping with the true meaning of Christmas. We also enjoyed a wonderful concert by Father Bill Quinlivan who was joined by several other talented singers. And the evening was free, except for paying the toll to cross Grand Island!
