I pray that each of you has a safe and rewarding season ... a time of Spiritual renewal ... that the birth of our Christ will remind us of just how fortunate we are to know Him and His saving power. .... and that as we move on into the coming year, to dedicate ourselves to sharing the Gospel with as many family, friends and acquaintances as possible. ...... Who knows what the condition of this world will be when this season rolls around again next year ....... will we still be able to speak the truth openly? ... Will means of communication like this site still be available to each of us? ... There are many who believe that soon, Christians who follow the true teachings of the Bible will be forced underground. ... I personally don't know how long the Lord will tarry before He returns for us, but if it is for any length of time, I would then agree with this thinking.

In the meantime, let us rejoice because of our many blessings and share the reason for our joy!

Until next time,
