Merry Christmas!
We had a traditional Christmas Eve Family Service on Monday evening. The weather cooperated and there was a good attendance from members, family, and friends. The church was beautifully decorated and several families or individuals contributed to the service by reading Scripture lessons, singing or playing the piano. The congregation also sang Christmas carols. It was great to see everyone at this special event.
A service of Holy Communion was held on Christmas morning. This is always a service that’s more intimate and reflective, which is appreciated after all the excitement of the evening before. If you are interested in the message, use the link on the right.
I will have a week off, but something special is being offered next Sunday on the 30th. At 9:00 a.m. the Christmas Cantata Mary, Did You Know? will be performed. The Palmyra Covenant church will be our guest that day and there will be a potluck brunch following the cantata. Several members of the choir will be coming from the Olivia area and Deb R. will be conducting.
I wish you and yours a season blessed with the awareness of Christ’s presence.
In the name of Jesus, our Savior
Pastor Stewart
