Happy Holidays!: Luke 2:15-16
Happy Holidays!
Luke 2:15-16
When the angels went away from them into heaven, the shepherds said to one
another, Let us go over to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened,
which the Lord has made known to us. And they went with haste and found
Mary and Joseph, and the baby lying in a manger.
The Hope of the world is Jesus! Let us celebrate in this season of new hope and
new joy. The question is: Are you ready for the arrival of the Christ Child?
Grace and Peace,
Charlotte and Adam McKee
ually surround the persons affected by the fire and tornado and those
involved in coming to their aid with love and care, with Gods love
and care.
Our hearts are broken for so much devastation. But in the midst of the
grief, we know that God is there. He is always present. As the people
of God, we will commit ourselves to be witnesses to the grace and
healing love of Jesus Christ.
May God's grace and peace sustain us all,
DINDY TAYLOR
