December-The Gift
Celebrating the birth of our Savior transforms the month of December into a month unlike no other. It’s a reflection of him and the life he lived. Giving, kindness, reaching out, pulling in. An awareness of blessings, of those less fortunate. Family is at the center of our celebrations and the focus of our hearts. As we gather, let’s share. What was a visit to grandmas house like when you were a kid? Favorite memory of Christmas with Cousins? What part is your favorite to play in the nativity? What can we add to our tradition that remembers those we love that have gone before us? Jesus and family go hand in hand. Family is his plan and hope for all of us. Eternal family with him!
