CHRISTMAS MESSAGE
|
|
People say it is supposed to be a time of joy and happiness... of love and good cheer... and we hope that's exactly the kind of Christmas you had. But it's hard sometimes, we know. You may even feel surrounded by darkness. If your Christmas included some uncertainty, or some grief or even some fear, you are not alone. You share this holy night with shepherds and angels and Mary and Joseph and people all over the world who find themselves in some kind of darkness. And we are here, all of us, together.
"Do not be afraid, for see I bring you news of great joy.
For unto you is born in the City of David a savior."
So a light shines even in your darkness.
And nothing shall overcome this Light.

2018 GUIDE BOOK DIRECTORY

|
|
It is time for us to update our database with any changes, additions, or deletions that may have occurred in YOUR FAMILY over the past year.
The new Guide Book Directory order will be sent in at the end of this month so let us know
now if you have information that should be updated so information in the Guide Book will be correct.
The Guide Book Directory is free to the congregation including all production and mailing costs. If you would like to help to continue to provide this directory by advertising in it, please let the office know and we can connect you to the right person.
Thanks!
