Dear friends,

During this special season, we celebrate the hope of all people everywhere, the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

“Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.” “  Luke 2:8-11

I hope and pray that you will know the peace, hope and joy that Jesus Christ brings, during this season and all through the year.

Thank you to everyone for your kind support and encouragement throughout 2024. It is truly appreciated!

May God bless you all,
Lucas
