Christmas Eve

For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor,  Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

~Isaiah 9:6 (NIV)~

Merry Christmas!

By the time you read this, Christmas Day will probably already be over.  Your presents are all unwrapped. The beautiful decorations will soon be taken down and put in boxes.

Missionaries serving around the world are VERY busy this holiday season.  Even when countries don’t celebrate Christmas, they usually have a winter holiday.  Missionaries will still be having parties and going to parties this week.  They will hand out Christmas CDs, magazines, comic books and DVDs.  Some will sing in concerts, speak in schools and feed the homeless.

Mark John and Sharon Bennett, in Tokyo, Japan, have children in the third, fifth and sixth grades.  So the Bennett family is spending time this Christmas season with classmates and their families.  They will tell them about Jesus. Please pray for these Japanese families that they will be excited to hear about Jesus and accept Him as Savior.

Let’s pray for a chance to tell our friends about Jesus this week too!
