We all have our spots in church. When studying for a test becomes especially exhausting or I am just tired of staring at my dorm room wall, I know I can return to my little spot in the Catholic college chapel: right side, near the windows, close to the statue of St. Joseph. St. Joseph seems to keep appearing in my life. I see him in every Christmas Nativity scene, of course. But I also find more frequent reminders of him during this year of St. Joseph, called for by Pope Francis. Even my dorm is called St. Joseph Hall. For all these connections and more, Joseph has become something of an old friend. After all, he was probably about my age when we first meet him in Scripture.
The Nativity was set up near the church entrance on the parking lot side of the building.

According to police, a car was seen entering the parking lot off of Route 413 at approximately 10:30 p.m. on Christmas Eve. It is unknown if this vehicle was involved, but it is described as a dark colored sedan.
Anyone knowing anything about this incident or the whereabouts of the statue is asked to call the Buckingham Police Department at 215-794-8812.

INTERNATIONAL
An article on Sunday about criticism of the Vatican’s Christmas Nativity scene in St. Peter’s Square misstated the year that the Nativity scene was sculpted from beach sand. It was 2018, not last year.
NATIONAL
An article on Aug. 4 about the departure of Trump administration appointee, Merritt Corrigan, from the United States Agency for International Development included an imprecise description of comments by another U.S.A.I.D. official, Tera Dahl. In discussing Islam, she has made statements against extremist groups; she has not made public statements against Islam itself.
BUSINESS
A picture caption with a photo essay on Monday about the pandemic’s effect on holiday traditions misspelled part of the name of a city in Michigan. It is Grosse Pointe, not Point.
