Merry Christmas!


We would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas. We are excited to see family and exchange gifts but we must never forget the reason we celebrate; our Savior coming to earth, giving us the ultimate gift of His life for ours. I didn't used to understand why people always talked about Jesus dying on the cross around Christmas time, but a few years ago the light came on. Jesus came to earth to die. That was His purpose. He came to earth the picture of innocence. Thirty three years later he died for our sins on that cross, still the picture of innocence. You cannot consider Jesus' birth without also considering His death. So as you celebrate Jesus' birth today and tomorrow, also celebrate your salvation. And if you haven't received the salvation of Jesus, what are you waiting for? Please be safe and blessed as you celebrate our Lord's birth.
