A Shout

What a new experience it is on the "other side of the fence" so to say of ministry as I am working on this Christmas Eve. I miss my family a lot, but it is good I'm here too to finish out the Advent journey with this group of people I'm learning to love and call my own. I've been a part of two services thus far today and one more is one the way . . .

So, tonight I give a shout out not only to all the ministers who continue to labor to bring God's love to the church (I didn't know until tonight what a big responsiblity you have), but I also celebrate to all those who are working this night-- wherever you are doing and wherever you may be. May God grant you peace and enjoyment of this Christmas!

God's best to all of you today and in the coming New Year!
