Santa Claus is an integral part of our Holiday festivities but he has
certainly changed over the years. The historical Saint Nicholas was a
Greek bishop living in what is today Turkey. He loved children and often
put coins in shoes left on stoops, and an interesting miracle is
associated with him. Read about it (here).
