It's quite warm today but yesterday it was very chilly.
I am so tired because of sleepless and fitful nights. I am trying to catch up on sleep in the daytime but very often without any success.
On Sunday we go to church because it is a date of the Saint to whom our church is devoted to. In Russia, we have tradition to name churches after saints otlr after great church festives. After church service we are going to have a dinner party. Everyone cooks something and bring some snacks as cheese or sausages.

Be careful when you use words like after or because. These words set the structure of the sentence.
They are used two ways, usually:
1. In the middle of a sentence, it is used to connect a big idea with a small idea:
I love ice cream because it tastes good. I went to school after I finished breakfast.
We go to church because it is a date of the Saint to whom our church is devoted.
2. If the because or after is at the beginning of a sentence, we have to use commas (,) in the sentence:
Because ice cream tastes good, I love it. After I finished breakfast, I went to school.
Because it is a date of the Saint to whom our church is devoted, we go to church.
