St. Nicholas Visits Corpus Christi St. Nicholas made his annual appearance at Corpus Christi in Stone Mountain, but this year the setting was different. Instead of making visits to the children in their classrooms, he was visible to all parishioners who accepted the invitation to join him at a St. Nicolas Brunch in the gym on Dec. 3. Father Willie Hickey, using his chef expertise, trained a kitchen crew. Results were delicious. Buffet offerings includ ed French toast, bacon and sausage, fruit crepes, hashbrowns, quiche, omelettes, muf fins, and fresh fruit compote. An area was set aside for the children to leave their shoes while they ate. They found them later stuffed with special treats. The joyful at mosphere was enhanced by song, strolling magicians, and balloons for all. There was a steady stream of more than 1,200 parishioners of all ages from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. enjoying the food and a delightful ex perience of community. It was truly a family affair—parish family at its best.
