Merry Christmas


In light of the recent events in Newtown, Connecticut, we thought it would be appropriate this year to join in the lament and past cries of Israel in waiting, “O come, O come Emmanuel,” as we, too, await the coming of Christ. We know and trust that God joins us in the darkness of the pit, and, because of this, our cries turn to praise and much rejoicing.

May God continue to hear and respond to the cries of his people, “Come, Lord Jesus,” and may we remain faithful and be a light in the midst of darkness until he comes.

“He who testifies to these things says, ‘Yes, I am coming soon.’ Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God’s people. Amen” (Revelation 22:20-21).
