From the Message on Sunday
Be Here Now is the theme of our Christmas Worship series. And is a great way for us to talk about the true meaning of Christmas. The celebration of God being willing to enter into our world. Christmas the time when God came to live among us and be present to us.
Be here now has explored what it means to be fully present in our relationships and what it means for us to be fully present to God.
We have been challenged to make a difference in the world by doing for one what we wish we could do for everyone. 
Today on the Sunday before Christmas, we are asked to think about a time when we were overwhelmed in our lives.  How did we cope with life then?  Our scripture today is about a time when Joseph was overwhelmed with life's circumstances right before he married and Jesus was born.
 

En Agape',
Rev. Michael Weeks
