Dear Church Family,

Just this morning I found out that our worship leaders and one of my kids tested positive for COVID (my test was negative) which leaves us in the unfortunate position to have to cancel both our Christmas Eve and Sunday worship gathering.

One of the themes of the Christmas story is hardship. After traveling miles while pregnant Mary and Joseph couldn't find a place to stay. But... their hardship didn't take away from the joy of Jesus birth! I pray that this Christmas you and your family experience that same joy found that is found in a relationship with Jesus.

Make sure to take some time to reread the Christmas story this morning and be reminded of his grace. Blessings to you and your family and we'll see you in the New Year!

Grace and Peace,
Pastor Andrew
