Christmas Time

Hi all,

It was great to see some Youth Groupers helping out with the Kids workshop this morning - its always encouraging seeing you guys make an effort to help other people, especially with Church activities. There is two more days of it so make sure you prayer for everyone helping to run it, especially Jeesh, that they keep up the energy and have fun. Also pray that the kids might hear and understand about why Jesus came to earth at Christmas.

I hope I can see some of you on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day services, they should be great fun and a good reminder of what we believe happens to us through Jesus.
Kids and Carols (6pm 24th @ Rosalie) is shaping up to be a fun time, though the more adventurous of you might want to join me at the Midnight service to see in Christmas day (11pm 24th @ St Matts Church). I love the midnight service its a cool time of celebration of Jesus' birth and really sets a good tone for all of Christmas - and you may be able to wangle a present opening when you get home after midnight.

Whatever services you go to, or where ever you may be on Christmas I pray that God may bless you with the understanding of what Christmas brings, and with the peace that was brought to earth by Jesus. Eat, drink, laugh, give, receive, play, talk and have an awesome time!!

Remember that Christ came to the world to bring us to God!
