At Christmas, as we bring to mind the past, enjoy the present, and dream of tomorrow, may we forever be grateful of God’s love. It is a reminder and opportunity to show our love and gratitude to God, to our spouse, family members and friends. Christmas is a time for joy, for happy memories. May the spirit of Christmas bring us peace; may the gladness of Christmas give us hope; and the warmth of Christmas grant us love.

Let us also welcome and cheer the new year, 2018 with hope, faith and joy. It is another chance to get things right, to grow, and to improve ourselves; another year to live; to banish worry, doubt, and fear; to love, laugh, give and do our very best! Let us continue to make friends, be a friend and bring our friends to Christ.
