This Sixth Day of Christmas December 30th, we look back on a joyous beginning to our Twelve Day Season, with so many working so hard to bring the celebrations to full throttle…Altar Guild, Sunday School children and teachers, our Bell Choir, Choir and guest musicians; our plethora of servers, and, most significantly, those who came to worship and bend the knee at the manger of Emmanuel, God with us.
Together we gave witness to a God who suffuses and indwells human life and all creation, and the thrall of that worship poises us in right attitude for an unfolding 2015 upon us.
Seize time for family, friends, football, or a saunter in the mountains…and see you at prayer!
A Blessed Christmastide and Happy New Year all!
