It’s hard to believe 17 years have passed since this photo. The little guy that Nana is holding was only three months old; now he stands at 6′-2″. For several years we took some family photos around the large tree in the church foyer.

Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Christ, the Son of God. Christ himself said that he did not come into this world to condemn it, but through Him the world might be saved. Christmas is the celebration of life, joy, peace on earth, and good will. There is a price for this victory over death and the gift of eternal life. A sacrifice must be paid and it must be paid in blood. God brought His own Son into this world to pay that price. Christ was born to die for you and me,, so come and worship the King.
