celebrate jesus! The hustle and bustle of the Christmas season is upon us! There is so much to do! Decorate, purchase gifts, attend class parties, send out cars cook a big meal, and clean up after everyone leaves! WHEN! While all these are good in their place, don't forget what Christmas is really all about: JESUS! Wouldn't it be great if all of us could/would just take the time to simplify Christmas? Slow down and enjoy this time of year with your family, church, and friends! Don't miss the blessing celebrating Jesus this Christmas season!

may jesus be the center of your holiday season

two ways to give, just ask jesus which one or both

got his gift yet? Only 8 days left till the party? That's right only 11 days until we celebrate the Birth of Jesus! Have you decided what you are going to give Him this Christmas? My challenge to you: Allow your first Christmas gift to be given to the work of the Kingdom. Why not give to help pay for the property we need next to ours on the hill? You know how much we need the New Family Life Center.

You will find a special envelope for the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering. Any amount given to this offering will go directly to the support of our foreign missionaries. This is what makes Southern Baptist unique among others. Why don't you ask God to show you what He wants you to give Jesus for His Birthday? An offering would greatly help the missionaries serving in your place.

remember....jesus the reason for the season!
