"Happy Birthday Jesus" Party for children through the 2nd grade
Nancy and I went out SHOPPING for Christmas gifts. Good grief, do you know what a WAR ZONE it is out there!!
In the hustle and bustle of all of that, it made me wonder how many people really know the true meaning of Christmas (ask any kid under 12 to sing a Christmas CAROL, you know the ones about JESUS to you...ninety percent won't know a one). They will know Jingle Bells and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer but not the ones about Jesus, the One who the holiday is all about.
So, THAT, folks, is where you get to come in. On Christmas eve we will be having a candlelight service in our new building. A sweet, reflective time to honor the One who's birth began this whole season. And this will be YOUR chance to invite them. Studies have proven that people will come to church at Easter and Christmas when they don't go any other time. We have a new building, we have folks to love on them (at a time that other studies have shown to be a time of depression for many)....so go bring them. Oh, and we will be here on Christmas DAY, too. There isn't a better place to honor God than to be in His house on His birthday.
See you then!
I love you all,
Pastor Stan
