As we approach the end of 2024, we want to take a moment to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! While December 25 may not be the actual date of Jesus’ birth, this season is a time for reflection, joy, and celebration of the gift of Christ to the world.

Christmas is about more than just the date; it’s about the profound significance of Jesus’ birth. The Gospel of Luke reminds us of the miraculous event: “For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.” (Luke 2:11). This verse encapsulates the hope and joy that comes with the arrival of our Savior. As we gather with family and friends, let us remember the love and grace that Jesus brought into our lives.

As we prepare to welcome 2025, let us embrace the new beginnings that the New Year brings. It’s a time to set intentions and seek God’s guidance for the year ahead. The scriptures remind us:” For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11). Let this promise inspire us as we step into the future with faith and confidence.
