This is such a great season and while it can feel a tad crazy, it is always my favorite time of year. I hope you enjoyed our Tree Lighting last Sunday night. I saw so many of you who brought friends and it looked like the kids had a lot of fun playing in the snow. The twelve days of Christmas was a big hit, as well as our “north star fly-over.” Of course, we have to thank the three wise men who played their part to perfection. And remember, we have many more great events planned to celebrate the Christmas season.

This Saturday morning is the Women’s Christmas Brunch. It will be a wonderful event for the women in our community as they celebrate the Good News and have an incredible morning together. If you are looking for a festive Christmas concert, every year we host A Christmas Together. It’s such a fun way to hear the songs of Christmas as they are performed by talented artists and musicians. We will pack out our auditorium with this festive event (yes, I said festive event). And of course our Christmas Eve services will take place on December 24 at 3:30 and 5:30p. It will be a special service to attend with friends and family.

Finally, Crystal Lewis will be leading worship on Sunday, December 21 and singing so many of the songs we love this time of year. As you can tell, there is a lot going on. The wonderful part of this year is not only that it’s a time for us to enjoy all of the things that are a part of Christmas, but it’s a time to give back. Thank you all for the generosity you provided with so many meals and gifts to people in our community who need it most. You continue to be such a generous church and you give back in amazing ways. Also, thank you for your gifts for Tree Lighting. Because of your donations and money, the event was free, and fully paid for. Once again, thank you.

Continued Blessings,
Jeff
