MERRY CHRISTMAS from our family to yours.  It is my prayer that you have a blessed holiday with your family; that you will rejoice in the GIFT of Jesus Christ all throughout the year!  If you are a visitor to this site, and do not know God, nor claim Jesus Christ as the only path to God, then please know that my prayers are with you – that you would come to know Him and experience His hand in your life.  You are not really “living” until you know Him.

I am amazed and honored that any ONE of you would choose to come and visit me here – I treasure your presence and friendship.  I appreciate the way you share with me ALL year long.  Please know that I am a much better person because of what you have shared with me. 

Above is the picture which resulted from the crazy church directory picture day.  Now you know why I have had a chronic case of hives for three solid years.    It’s also why I refer to my family as “the gang,” and to the little boys specifically as “the sanctifiers.”   Next to God, they ALL are my reason for living and will consume 99 percent of my time for the next 20 or so years. 

REJOICE!  Our Savior has come!
