Good morning, Pasadena. Merry Christmas!
Thank you so much for reading News N’ Roses. Thank you for your kind words, your support throughout the year, and for contributing in so many ways to help make News N’ Roses better.
My goal with my newsletter has always been to bring the community closer together and to share experiences that make Pasadena feel more connected. Especially during the holidays, everyone deserves a Christmas meal, someone who cares about them, and the comfort of not feeling alone. If you know someone in need this season, please consider helping them if you can. You can also reach out to me, and I will do my best to help connect them with support. Caring for each other in our community is what News N’ Roses is all about.
I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas, happy holidays, and a wonderful New Year. I hope you are able to enjoy the season with plenty of cheer, good food, and thoughtful gifts. Most of all, I hope you are able to spend meaningful time with family and friends, which is what truly matters this time of year.
With gratitude,
Matthew
