To us a child is born,

to us a son is given,

and the government will be on his shoulders.

Reminder – Tomorrow morning at 8:00,  you can be a part of something important.  Pine Ridge does a monthly breakfast.  Donations go to help with a need the ladies select.  This month, the Methodist Children’s Home will receive our donations.  Come enjoy a full breakfast bar, meet some new friends, and support a need for children.

 

Christmas is a time of giving.  God did that first by giving his only Son for us.  This year, focus more on giving.  You can never give more than He did.  The more you give, the more you will be blessed.
