I am very pleased with this book I wrote with illustrations by Sergio Drumond. Many copies were purchased since its release in October 2022. At least once in December 2023 it broke Amazon's top 100 in Children's Christian Holiday Fiction.

I am a born again, evangelical Christian, having come to faith in Jesus in 1971. I eventually became an ordained minister and pastored churches in MA for over 25 years. Though no longer a pastor, I am still ordained and still minister.
THIS IS OPTIONAL - I would love to share the true story of Christmas, the birth of Christ, when I visit . I would read my book, Dear Maggie a Letter from Santa. My favorite line in the book is when Santa writes : "Lastly, and please don't be sad, Maggie, the day will come when you stop believing in me and that is fine, but please never, ever stop believing in Jesus."
If you want just a rousing Santa visit or one where he shares about Jesus, I will definitely honor your request.
Amen!

In addition to my regular Santa Claus suit I also have a Victorian -style outfit that I could make in-person and virtual visits in. It's your choice.
Photos were taken at St. Luke's Church in Smithfield, VA. It is the oldest church in Virginia and oldest church in British North America of brick construction. According to local tradition the structure was built in 1632, but other evidence points to a date of 1682.

The beard is real. The love of children is real! The pure enjoyment of being in character is also real. In 2022 I visited nursing facilities and our hospice patients as the Easter Bunny, a leprechaun, and Uncle Sam, and, of course Santa. I will be doing the same this year.

Dean studied acting/theater at Emerson College in Boston. He then took a 180 degree turn and earned a BA in Bible and a MA in Religion and entered the ministry. He and his wife Susan pastored two churches and founded a third, all in Massachusetts. He is an ordained minister.
He has two children and 10 grandchildren, who refer to him as Grampy or at Christmastime as "Grampy Claus." There is great mutual love.
Dean is now fully retired.

We know "Saint Nicholas," the inspiration for Santa Claus, was a real person who lived around 280 AD in what is now Turkey. He was renown for his charitable acts., and yet, as we all know, legends and myths surround this man.
St. Nicholas heard about a poor father, who out of desperation, was about to sell his three daughters into a "life of sin." The bishop, compassionately intervened by secretly delivering three bags of gold to pay their dowry. In doing so, he secured their freedom and safety.
What a relevant topic snatched from today's headlines. Whether true or not, or somewhere in between, I personally like this story as he rescues young women from human trafficking.
