Friends — merry, merry Christmas to you. May your day be full of good food, companions, and soulful reflection. Remember, as you open gifts bedecked with bows, His whose birth was lowly. It is His we celebrate.

“And in despair, I bowed my head: ‘There is no peace on earth,’ I said. for hate is strong, and mocks the song of peace on earth, good will to men. Then pealed the bells more loud and deep: ‘God is not dead, nor doth He sleep; the wrong shall fail, the right prevail, with peace on earth, good will to men!’” – H.W. Longfellow


















A very beautiful and well done video. Thank you and Merry Christmas.
That poem was the subject of the sermon in church last Sunday. Did you know it was written during the Civil War? Longfellow had just received word his son had been badly wounded.
It really resonates today, I think, too. Merry Christmas to you and yours. And I loved the video.
