Christmas is a mere 2 Sundays away! I’m sure that hustle and bustle of this holiday season started for you quite some time ago.  I pray that the busyness of the season does not keep you from experiencing the fullness of God’s joy!

Permit me to encourage you to keep Christmas special this year! Though you may be hurried, make time for your Savior! Make time for your family and those close to you!  Let God’s grace, goodness, and greatness fill your life with the abundance of Himself and “Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS!”

With all of my love and prayers,
Pastor Gary
