In some respects it has felt like Christmas for months. Sometime at the end of September, the stores began advertising for Christmas by displaying their merchandise and playing Christmas music. Despite all the kind warnings from merchants, I find Christmas is upon us and I am struggling to get ready. It can be such a busy time of year. We decorated our home last week and I have begun to listen to Christmas music throughout the day. I know there are always countless events that surround the season which help to bolster the holiday spirit.
I have to confess that one of the Christmas events I am most looking forward to will take place this Saturday morning, December 13th at 9:00. The New Life Christmas Breakfast will take place in the gym. There is something so fun about sitting down with families to share breakfast and all kinds of fun. Everyone is invited to wear their holiday garb and come with large appetites. Our choir, the Caroling Kids, will sing a few songs, we will have crafts children (of all ages) can participate in, a magician, and we will sing Christmas carols as well as learn a bit about their history. So, you should make plans to meet me on Saturday morning and we can all share in breakfast and a bit of fun together. To me, there is nothing that makes me feel the "Christmas Spirit" more than gathering with friends and celebrating. Truly it is the most wonderful time of the year.
