Merry Christmas!!

Only 2 more days til Christmas. Where does the time go? Seems like yesterday it was only January 1, 2005. We have so much to look back on and be thankful for. This has been a year of many events throughout the country and the world. As for our little part of the world, we have many things going on around us. This past Sunday the adult choir performed the annual Christmas cantata. Being a member of the choir, I am very pleased with all the hard work our faithful conductor put into leading us. He and his wife have truly been a blessing to our church and I am very thankful for them. The cantata (both musically and setting wise) was very beautiful. A special thank you to those who helped with the lights and sound as well the actors that participated. It would not have been the same without them.
Not that I am biased or anything, but I have always loved our sanctuary and its beauty. It is especially beautiful this time of year with the lighted garland, wreaths and lovely poinsettias. All in all, if you weren't there, you missed quite a treat.

In other news around our church, we have a special Christmas service planned this Sunday. There will be no Sunday School or evening services. We will only have worship at 11am Sunday morning with the Lord's Supper. A very special way to commemorate the birth of our Lord and Saviour.

I want to remind and encourage those of you who might be looking for a Sunday School class to join, we have classes available for folks of all ages. Come and join us and bring a friend or two. We also have classes for everyone for Discipleship Training at 5pm Sunday nights.

At this moment, I can't think of anything else. I wish each of you a very Merry Christmas. Remember to pray for those in need as well as the folks in the armed forces. Tis a difficult time of year for those who have loved ones serving. Will close for now. Til next time, take care and God bless!
